C. To show examples of reasons books have been banned

We know that the author's purpose is this option and not the others because throughout the text, they only focus on giving examples of the reasons books have been banned or challenged: People object to certain books because they introduce ideas or topics with a vulgar language, others because the ideas expressed in the book do not align with their values, or because some books introduce ideas that people find it difficult to examine or to think or to talk about.

Figurative language 'The meat sizzled and cracked as I laid in into the hot pan.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The figurative language that can be found in the sentence is onomatopoeia.

Explanation:

<u>Onomatopoeia refers to words that represent a sound by imitating it. </u>There are several verbs that come, originally, from imitating a sound, such as: to buzz, to clang, to click, to tinkle, to jingle, and to chime, among others. T<u>he verbs </u><u>to sizzle </u><u>and </u><u>to crack</u><u> are also examples of onomatopoeia. </u><u>To sizzle</u><u> mostly refers to the sound food makes while being fried, although it can also refer to the sounds that fire makes while burning. The same goes for </u><u>to crack</u><u>, although it can refer to a more extensive range of sounds, such as explosions, or the sound of something breaking.</u> Therefore, we can safely say the sentence "The meat sizzled and cracked as I laid it into the hot pan" uses onomatopoeia.
