Answer:

assigning human qualities or characteristics to things or animals

Explanation:

When a writer makes a thing or an animal behave as if it were human, it means the writer is using a figure of speech called personification. In other words, the author assigns human qualities or characteristics to things or animals.

e.g. The sun was smiling at us.

The forest woke up.

Wind whispered through the trees in the garden.

The flute began to weep again.

The car lights winked.

Which reading strategy will best help you gain understanding during reading?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

A) Summarizing

Explanation:

If you are able to summarize what you just read, you know that you understood everything.

Questioning isn't the best strategy because the questions aren't always helpful. Making predictions doesn't help you understand what you read. Skimming just makes whatever you're reading even more challenging, therefore leaving only summarizing.

Hope it helps!

What recurrent dream did Buck have?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

"The vision of the short-legged hairy man came to him more frequently, now that there was little work to be done; and often, blinking by the fire, Buck wandered with him in that other world which he remembered.

The salient thing of this other world seemed fear. When he watched the hairy man sleeping by the fire, head between his knees and hands clasped above, Buck saw that he slept restlessly, with many starts and awakenings, at which times he would peer fearfully into the darkness and fling more wood upon the fire. Did they walk by the beach of a sea, where the hairy man gathered shell- fish and ate them as he gathered, it was with eyes that roved everywhere for hidden danger and with legs prepared to run like the wind at its first appearance. Through the forest they crept noiselessly, Buck at the hairy man's heels; and they were alert and vigilant, the pair of them, ears twitching and moving and nostrils quivering, for the man heard and smelled as keenly as Buck."

This section and Buck's dream symbolizes the equality between the animal and the man in ancient times.

"Buck's mind is taken over once again by the hairy, primitive man of the ancient world. Buck's desires become clearer along with his memories. he recalls that "the salient thing seemed fear." When Buck's ancestor wandered the forests with his human-companion, their needs and desires were always one. The human was as wild as the animal, seeking food, shelter, companionship, and safety. Buck craves and needs danger and insecurity in his life. Without it, he does not really feel alive."
