Answer: 1. Zoomorphism, 2. Anthropomorphism
Explanation:
Both sentences are similes, phrases that compare a concept to something similar, but each one compares the object differently.
1. Zoomorphism is the literary device where the author gives animal-like qualities to a human being, in this case, comparing the action of the man to what a bird of prey would do from a high perch.
2. Anthropomorphism is the literary device that attributes human qualities to an animal, plant, or object, in this case, comparing how shriveled the plants were to the people's misery.

Automation in the sentence refers to B. The use of machines that function on their own.
Answer: B
Explanation:
"icy" when describing a person's attitude or personality means cold, rude, etc, but a smile is usually happy and warm.
Personally I don't think it's an oxymoron- it's definitely possible to do a rude, fake smile. But B is what an oxymoron is- two words that are opposite in meaning and shouldn't technically be used together- like "awfully good" or "bittersweet."
A dependent clause. Because this sentence only give an action, there is no cause for this action unless given said cause.
Answer:
There was no record seen by Wilmot, to show that Shakespeare read a book, let alone write a letter.
Explanation:
James Wilmot, a reverend and literary scholar came up with an idea in 1781 that Shakespeare was not Shakespeare. He went to the house that William Shakespeare lived during his lifetime, and went through all the libraries in his Stratford residence and searched for correspondence.
There was no record seen by Wilmot, to show that Shakespeare read a book, let alone write a letter. He did not find Shakespeare signatures on the bottom of the old letters that were seen. He also stated that there was no property, belonging to Shakespeare, that was written on the on the endpapers of a Bible.
James Wilmot concluded that the plays of Shakespeare could not have been written by someone who did not leave an literary paper trail behind him.
