Answer:

Metonymy is a figure of speech

Explanation:

When writers use another word that names something that is in some way related to the original thing, and describes one of its qualities or features, they are using a figurative language called <em>Metonymy</em> . For example: "Crown" can refer to power or royalty; "Wall Street" can replace Financial Industry in America, and "Hollywood", the film industry.

Which choice best shows a person that you are listening and that you respect his or her perspective?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

I believe the best answer is letter D. you ask for clarification of what the person is saying.

Explanation:

If you stand motionless or stare down at the floor, as suggested in letters A and B, the speaker may feel as if you are just pretending to listen or as if you are not interested, respectively. Those approaches would certainly encourage them to stop talking instead. Now, if you continuously offer your opinion (letter C), you'll be constantly interrupting the speaker. Not only will he/she be annoyed, but such behavior may be considered rude and inadequate.

<u>The best option is letter D. When you ask for clarification, you make it clear that, not only were you listening, but also paying attention. If you ask for clarification, that means the subject interests you. You are curious enough to want to know more about it. That will encourage the speaker to keep on discussing.</u>
