The problem in the italicized element in the sentence below is?1)trite expression
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Which of the following statements is the inverse of "If you do not understand geometry, then you do not know how to reason deductively."?
A. If you reason deductively, then you understand geometry.
B. If you do not reason deductively, then you understand geometry.
C. If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively.
Answer:
The inverse of that statement is:
C. If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively.
Explanation:
To determine the inverse of a statement, we must negate both the hypothesis and the conclusion. In this case, the hypothesis is "if you do not understand geometry." It is already a negative sentence, which means its negation is "if you understand geometry." The same goes for the conclusion "then you do not know how to reason deductively." Its negation is "then you [know how to ] reason deductively." Putting them together, we have "If you understand geometry, then you reason deductively." - letter C
The answer is character vs character.
Well for one, characterisation is how a writer chooses to reveal a characters personality in a story, through things like physical appearance (shiny hair, blue eyes, nice smile, ect.) and through virtues and faults (brave, attentive, smart - egotistical, bitter, evil.)
Figurative language is basically how you'd describe said chracterisations, through things like personification, hyperbole, metaphors, similes, ect.
So with that being said, figurative language can help characterise a monster by doing more than just saying it's a monster; figurative language can make it /feel/ like a monster to the reader. Figurative language can turn the monster '3-D' (for lack of better words), by saying it has long claws, stinky breath, vicious fangs, a horrifying growl, ect.
My favourite example of figurative language is actually in the childrens book "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak, because it uses simple figurative language. Maurice Sendak describes the wild things as so: "They roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws.'
Anyway, I hope this helped !! :-)
