Answer:

A: Allusion

Explanation:

 The figurative language used in this passage from "Letter from Birmingham Jail" is <em>Allusion </em>, which is the reference made by the authors to make you think of a particular thing or person, usually related to their own work.  It is just a passing or brief comment without describing details, but the writer expects the reader to be somehow familiar with it. In this case, there are several Bible passages that talk about people being called to carry  God's message.

Allusion.

Both examples come from the Bible. The first comes from the Old Testament and the second from the New. You have to be a little knowledgeable of the Bible to catch on to either one of them (or be good with Google).

I understand that “time is of the essence” I just need to find my keys so we can leave!
Solnce55 [7]
The punctuation mark that should be placed after the close quotation mark is a period. A period is used at the end of the sentence to indicate where the sentence fully stops. In the example given above, it is made up of two complete sentences with different thoughts each. Therefore, it should be written like this: I understand that "time is of the essence". I just need to find my keys so we can leave!

Answer:

Formulate and devise. They both mean to create a plan of some sort, while all the other words have to relation to each other. Another trick is to put the words into sentences and see if they deliver the same message.
