Answer:

<em>1.metonymy</em>

<em>2. Hyperbole</em>

<em>3. Simile</em>

Explanation:

1. The bread of the land-metonymy

2. My tears have washed away the earth- Hyperbole.

3. What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?- Simile.

metonymy: Is the replacement of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of the thing meant

An hyperbole is simply a figure of speech that has to do with exaggeration on what is seemingly impossible to be done or occur eg. i am so hungry that in can eat a horse, i have a million things to do today

Simile has to do with comparison of one thing with another that are different. example:

as fast as a dare

As wise as Solomon

How do Montresor´s words and actions advance the theme of the story
kow [346]

This question is about "The Cask of Amontillado"

Answer:

Montressor's words and actions show how corrupt revenge is.

Explanation:

Montressor's words and actions show that he is bordering on insanity and madness. That's because he planned a torturous revenge for an enemy of his and tells the story of that vigilance with a tone of victory and joy, for having managed to carry out his sick plans. This shows how revenge has a highly corruptive nature, allowing the person who exercised the revenge to lose parts of himself, showing madness and folly, like Montressor.
