Answer:

B. Imaginative and Dark.

Explanation:

To be imaginative means to be creative - with words, in this case.

The use of metaphorical comparisons in the excerpt is an example of an imaginative technique. Phrases such as "Silence of the grave", "Cradle of life", and "Opening his curtains" are examples of these metaphors.

The dark tone comes when the character begins to awaken, as they slowly discover their horrid appearance.

Makovka662 [10]

The correct way to use an in-text citation for entries of internet sources included in the Works Cited is to cite the first item that appears in the entry that is going to be cited. In case there is an author that is cited more than two times, the in-text citation should include both the name of the author and the title of the work. However, in this case there is just one work by the same author. Hence, the correct anser is A. According to a 2008 study, drivers with bumper stickers on their cars are much more likely to display road rage. This is the correct option because it uses the first item that appears in the entry of the Works Cited.
