Romeo tells the nurse that she should inform Juliet to meet at Friar Laurence’s cell that afternoon where they would be married.
In my opinion, the correct answer is A. simile. You can see that in the construction "four men (...) like burglars". A simile is actually a comparison that always follows this formula: A is like B. It usually uses the conjunctions (like/as), but sometimes, in its shorter form, it doesn't even need them. We don't see a metaphor here - every word is used in its literal meaning. We don't see an irony either. As for syntax, it is not even a literary device.
"A spotted shaft is seen" is alliteration because the letter S is repeated 3 times at the beginning of 3 words, which are spotted, shaft, and seen.
This question seems to be incomplete. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.
Answer:
In his book How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character, Paul Tough uses James Black's story as an example of how although having good cognitive abilities is necessary, hard work and proper education is much more important to turn intelligence into academic success.
Explanation:
James´amazing talent at playing chess, which usually indicates a high intelligence, didn´t match his academic results despite his teacher´s efforts. According to Tough, James´main obstacle was the deficiency of his education throughout his life, and not a lack of resolution or intellectual capacity. Furthermore, he praises Elizabeth Spiegel, James´teacher, for her efforts to get the kid to get better academic achievements, and claims that it´s teachers like her who actually understand educational needs and the importance of helping students develop their own intellectual abilities.
