Figurative language refers to language that uses words in ways that diverge from their literal interpretation to accomplish a more multifaceted or powerful effect. It can expand the interpretations of the ones who read it and extend their conceptions. It emphases on the use of figures of speech that play with the meaning of words, like personification, simile, metaphor and hyperbole. From the options above, the one that best fits with the definition explained is B "can seldom see through/his bars of rage". The metaphor “bars of rage” is a comparison in which these bars are made the equal of the bird’s anger and frustration since its bars forbid its freedom. The author uses personification by saying his instead of its when talking to something referring to the bird.

The parts that explicitly support that ideal are where he says that he calls "not upon a few, but upon all" and where he says that "the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet and to repulse it."

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: She should not.

Explanation:

Every profession has a range of salaries that practitioners in that profession might earn from the lowest salary possible to the highest. For instance, Carpenters in the United States can expect a yearly salary of between $41,784 and $72,987.

The Median figure refers to the figure in the middle of this range and separates what those in the upper half of the range will get from those in the lower half. It is not a given that a person will earn the median salary as they may earn lower or higher than it depending on multiple factors such as education, location, additional skills, number of years in the profession, etc.
