Rethorical devices are used order words in a certain way to convey meaning or to persuade. However, they can also be used as a technique to evoke particular emotions. Some of them are considered figurative language because they have a non-literal meaning.

Therefore, your answer would be A, a politician who persuades voters with a billboard because he is making use of those words to convince the audience. Yet, C, a poet who finds a perfect way to convey sadness could also be considered correct since poetry is full of figures of speech. One of the main features of poetry is to use figurative language.

The author calls the ocean a complex patchwork of environments and it says it's not limitless. Explain what you think this means
KatRina [158]

Answer and Explanation:

When the author states that the ocean is like a patchwork quilt, he is referring to how the ocean is a highly diverse environment. As you already know, a patchwork is an object made up of elements that are completely different from each other, but which are able to harmoniously join together to form the patchwork. The ocean is also like that, as it is formed by several elements that are completely different, but that come together in harmony.

However, the ocean is not infinite, on the contrary, it can have an end, due to pollution and intense human exploitation that degrades the ocean immensely. This is what the author wants to present when he says that the ocean is not limitless.

How do the media portray prostitution?
mylen [45]
<span>To be able to defend that women sell their bodies (and that men buy them) one must first abolish the victim and instead redefine the prostitude as a sex worker, a strong woman who knows what she wants. I think u too young to know about it.
