The corrector answer is D. metaphor.

A metaphor is a comparison that does not use "like" or "as." (A simile, on the other hand, does use "like" or "as.") In the above example, Ross is saying that freedom of expression is LIKE an oil. Even though she is not using the word "like," she is still making a comparison between freedom and oil. Since she is not using the word like, the literary device is a metaphor.

Answer:

<u>It might be met with skepticism, but it could lead to  great discoveries.</u>

Explanation:

Most of the time in the scientific community, new research is met with scrutiny as the people are wont to hold up tot he older tested models. Most of the new theories are rigorously tested by various number of scientists who then put it through scientific analysis. If the theory does hold up this, it becomes accepted.

"First impressions are always unreliable"
enyata [817]

Answer:

Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and

intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his

lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend

and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod. The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic

tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to

less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the

exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this

volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination

become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole.

Which two sentences correctly use parallel structure? Bernie not only forgot his one-year anniversary with Rachel but also he mi
Nuetrik [128]

The first two are parallel: "Bernie not only forgot <u>his one-year anniversary with Rachel</u> but also <u>he missed his father's birthday</u>." His and the name of a person, as well as their special day, are mentioned in each of the underlined phrases. Although they do not sound the same and may not have the same number of words, the construction of meaning is the same and the number of syllables is roughly the same. In, "Stan is a <u>voracious reader</u>, an <u>expressive writer</u>, and a <u>skillful painter</u>." all the underlined things are exactly two words, a strong adjective, followed by a -er hobby/occupational word. This would be more so the organization of ideas, because each clause has a slightly different meaning due to the different connotations of the adjectives used.

Hope that clears it up for you so that you can do it yourself next time!
