Explanation: Alliteration and personification
"..The soft,sun-kissed sand" is alliteration. It has the same letter/sound at the beginning of the words. I think alliteration is used to enhance the adjectives (which are being used to enhance the noun).
Another one is personification (The wind is not actually hissing).
Answer:
At the end of the story, each character is going to the roof because the entire building was on fire.
Explanation:
"Uprising" is a novel written by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The story is based on the true events of "The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire."
The novel has three main characters– Bella, Yetta, and Jane. When the building catches fire, in the novel, everyone rushes towards the stairs to reach the roof to escape the fire. Some try to use escalators and some stairs. But the fire was fierce enough to consume everyone. The novel had only one survivor– Bella.
Therefore, each character in the novel is rushing towards the roof to escape the fire.

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. It seems you are likely referring to the online article, The complicated legacy of the Pilgrims by Peter C. Mancall, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of the Humanities, USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences on the actively learn website.
<u>Explanation:</u>
1. The first misconception occurs when we are told that even though many American students have been taught to believe that the Compact signed by the pilgrims was <em>"a stepping stone toward self-government, a defining feature of American constitutional democracy.
"</em> it isn't actually the case, the article explains why,
<em> "After all, self-governing communities existed across Indigenous New England long before European migrants arrived...So </em><em>American self-government</em><em>, however one defines it, was </em><em>not</em><em> born in Plymouth."</em>
<em>2. </em>Another misconception was that the Pilgrims showed kindness and love towards the indigenous people they met, For example, we are told that in 1802, "the future President John Quincy Adams" referring to the pilgrims said, <em>"shown “kindness and equity toward the savages.” </em>However, William Bradford another observer said about the land, <em>“a hideous and desolate wilderness, full of wild beasts and wild men.”</em>
Moreover, the article further says,<em> "...colonists slaughtered Indigenous people on the banks of the Mystic River." </em>This alludes to the fact that there was a very little period of kindness amongst the Pilgrims and the indigenous people they met.
