The correct alternative is "our democratic-republican government is based on the idea of the natural right of every individual member thereof to . . . a vote in making and executing the laws".

The reason for this alternative to be correct is that one of the ways to use reticence is when it is desired to suppress some words or phrases from the original text. In the case of this alternating, the word "voice" was suppressed, being replaced by reticences. The other alternatives do not fit into any of the other ways of using reticences and so are incorrect.

The other ways to use reticencias are:

  • To interrupt a thought so that the reader implies what would be enunciated or imagined
  • To indicate common hesitations in orality
  • To convey more emotion and subjectivity to those who read

We can observe that all the answers contain ellipsis which is an intentional omission of a word, sentence or something longer. The correctly applied version of ellipsis is the first option - Our democratic-republican government is based on the idea of the natural right of every individual member thereof to . . . a vote in making and executing the laws. Omitted word is "voice". Other options are not correct because all of them contain mistakes regarding the usage of the ellipsis.

Match the term to the correct example.Term:1. allusion2. imagery3. personification4. foreshadowing
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

1. Allusion- B. Juliet: Else would I tear the cave where Echo lies, / And make her airy tongue more hoarse than mine...

2. Imagery- A. Romeo: The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars / As daylight doth a lamp.

3. Personification- C. Chorus: That fair for which love groan’d for and would die, / With tender Juliet match’d, is now not fair.

4. Foreshadowing - D. Friar Laurence: Therefore love moderately; long love doth so; / Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.

Explanation:

All of the quotes are from William Shakespeare's romantic tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" Act II.

1. Allusion is the indirect referencing of one hing to another. The referencing is made from an unrelated context with another.

Juliet: Else would I tear the cave where Echo lies, / And make her airy tongue more hoarse than mine...

The allusion in this play is seen in Act II scene ii where Juliet refers to the act of waking up echo until it shouts Romeo's name and its voice becomes hoarse.

2. Imagery is the visually descriptive way of picturing or giving images to a literary work. This can be achieved through the author's use of vivid and imaginative description in his their work. This example can be seen in Act II scene ii of the play where Romeo praises Juliet, admitting that her cheeks' brightness will shine brighter than the stars, just like the sun outshone the lamp.

Romeo: The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars / As daylight doth a lamp.

3. Personification is the giving of human attributes to an abstract or non human ideas and elements. Act II prologue where the chorus describes the love stricken Romeo is an example of personification. The old desire is given a human quality.

Chorus: That fair for which love groan’d for and would die, / With tender Juliet match’d, is now not fair.

4. Foreshadowing is the suspense, the prediction for something that will happen in the coming scenes, which is not yet happening but is referred to by the characters. Act II scene vi shows the speech of Friar Laurence where he comments on the effects of loving fast. He says that to "love moderately" is to love long while "too swift arrives as tardy as too slow".

Friar Laurence: Therefore love moderately; long love doth so; / Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.

Beatty justifies the new role of firemen by claiming to be "custodians of [society's] peace of mind, the focus of [the] understa
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

It means that firefighters have the ability to hide the freedom and individuality of themselves and the population.

Explanation:

This question is about the book "Fahrenheit 451". In this book, firefighters are charged with burning any book that is found with any citizen. This is because this book takes place in a society where books are prohibited by a government that wants to completely dominate all factors of freedom, knowledge and individuality in society.

For this reason, we can say that the statement that firefighters are the "custodians of [society's] peace of mind, the focus of [the] understandable and rightful dread of being inferior," means that they have the ability to promote intransparence in relation to the sense of freedom and individuality.
