Answer: D) an appositive phrase that describes another noun or pronoun in the sentence.

In the given sentence we can see an example of an appositive in the phrase "a hot-tempered football player", this words form a noun phrase that is defining (explaining) the proper noun "Roger" that is placed just before the noun phrase, so the correct answer is option D.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

Melville’s story is an allegory that conveys his criticism of Christian missionaries. Melville uses several biblical, scientific, mythological, and historical allusions to build his allegory. The lightning-rod man represents Christian missionaries, while the narrator represents Melville’s beliefs. According to him, missionaries are displacing and destroying the cultures they are attempting to convert rather than bringing them true spirituality. Although the narrator isn’t influenced by the lightning-rod man, he is saddened and worried to see his neighbors fall prey to the missionaries' trap. The narrator tries to dissuade his neighbors from believing in the lightning-rod man, who continues to thrive as he “trades with the fears of men.” Unlike many others of the time period, Melville believes in being God-loving, not God-fearing. :) Hope this helped.
