Answer:

D). "Traverse the lane in record time."

Explanation:

Alliteration is described as the literary device that employs the 'repetition of a similar consonant sound at the beginning of two or words in a line or phrase of poetry. It primarily functions to engage the readers' interest as it instills rhythm and melody to the poem along with a specified mood and connotation.

In the given question, the option that does not exemplify 'alliteration' would be 'traverse....time' as there is a long interval between the repetition of consonant sound 't' in 'traverse' and 'time'. Therefore, it fails to create the intended rhythm and capture the readers' attention and interest. Thus, it also fails to create the intended effect and hence, option D is the correct answer. The other options involve repetition of consonant sound that creates a rhythm in the line like 't' in 'train and strain', 'w' in 'who will win', 'f' in 'fin-like feet flap', etc. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

What is the symbolic meaning of the relationship between light and dark in the story in the Araby
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Light represents hope, imagination, unrealistic ideas, and the illusion of the narrator, while darkness represents reality, the true nature of things, and despair of the narrator.

Explanation:

The short story "Araby" by James Joyce is a coming-of-age story of a young unnamed narrator who has fantasized a lot about a girl and also about everything that is outside of his reach. This story delves into the theme of imagination vs. reality, where the narrator's wild imagination contrasted greatly with the true nature of the real world.

Symbolism is one style that Joyce used in his short story. He presents the image of light and dark to signify two very different things, as is evident. He uses <u>light to show the illusion, unrealistic ideas, and hope</u> that the narrator has for the much older girl. <u>Darkness, in return, represents the failure, the despair, the reality, and the true nature </u>of the narrator's predicament.
