Answer:

Q1 - the poetic device being used is imagery, because the lines help to picture what Hardy describes since he uses many different adjectives to describe the subject and the reader can imagine the details.

Q2- It appeals to the sense of sight, since the perception of color and visual density are recognized by sight and not touch.

Q3 - The *dictionary* is one book that is in most libraries. - subject is on singular form and on 3rd person, therefore the correct use of verb to be on simple present would be is.

Q4 - I gave directions to the *tourist* who was lost. - subject is on singular form and on 3rd person, therefore the correct use of verb to be on simple past would be was.

Q5 - The *Statue of Liberty* is one of the gifts that was given to us by the French - subject is on singular form and on 3rd person, therefore the correct use of verb to be on simpla past would be was.

The correct answers are:

1. The correct answer is the option that reads “imagery, because the lines help the reader picture what Hardy describes”. In the lines presented above from the book “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900), Hardy made use of the literary device “<u>imagery</u>”. By definition, imagery means using figurative language to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that they appeal to our physical senses. Therefore, it helps the reader picture what the author describes. In this case, imagery helps the reader picture the description of the thrush that Hardy makes.

2. The correct answer is the option that reads “sight”. The line “<em>When frost was spectre-gray</em>” from “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900) is an example of <u>visual imagery</u> because it appeals to the sense of <u>sight</u> by <u>describing the colour of the frost</u> as “<em>spectre-gray</em>”.

3. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “is”. The dictionary is one book that <u>is</u> in most libraries.

4. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. I gave directions to the tourist who <u>was</u> lost.

5. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. The Statue of Liberty is one of the gifts that <u>was</u> given to us by the French.
