Answer:
D) France
Explanation:
1. Francs (which I'm assuming they're talking about the currency) is a monetary unit most commonly found in France, Switzerland, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
2. Great Britain uses pound sterling, The United States uses USD, Italy uses Euros, and France uses Francs.
Therefore, the correct answer is D) France.
(You could also tell that the setting is in France because both France and Francs have "Franc" in them.)

Answer:
A. Dialect
Explanation:
Dialects are different forms of the same language characteristic for specific regions or social groups. For example, someone from the northern part of the USA might say <em>hello</em>, while someone from the South would say <em>howdy.</em>
Irregular subject-verb agreement (<em>they was swimming</em> instead of <em>they were swimming</em>) is a characteristic of some dialects.
The word <em>yonder</em> is archaic or belongs to a dialect. It means <em>over there</em>.
Diction is the choice and use of words and phrases in speech or writing. Every writer has their own diction.
The syntax is a set of rules words and phrases follow to create sentences in a language.
The tone in literature is what the author feels about a certain subject.
Answer:
D. He uses metaphor to portray the government as something driven by greed and evil.
Explanation:
Option D is the correct answer.
Looking at the excerpt, we see that Thoreau actually uses metaphor. He likens the government as a machine. As all machines have their friction, there is need for some good in order to counterbalance the evil. The author sees that when the friction comes is likened to when oppression and robbery are set in and organized.
Metaphor is actually a figure speech that is used to compare two things. It is done without the use of "as" and "like".
