Answer:

D. simile.

Explanation:

In Marie Devers' "The Junior Detective", the speaker narrates how she came upon the profession of being a detective. And in her description, she mentions how she stumbled upon <em>"this vocation"</em>, that is, being a detective.

The figurative language that is used in these lines is a simile where the speaker becoming a detective is compared to the process of how detectives solve crimes,<em> "stumbling" </em>upon evidences and declaring a <em>"verdict"</em> at the end of the investigation. Similes are used to compare one thing with a completely different kind, which provides a more detailed image of the thing talked about. And in these lines, her description of how she became a detective is vividly described, allowing the readers to have a proper understanding of the process.

Which of the following best explains the historical circumstances which led to the Victorian Age?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

C). Technological advances, as well as the gains of imperialism, produced a society with leisure to improve itself.

Explanation:

Victorian Era was noted by the sweeping progress and ingenuity as it was the time of "Industrial Revolution" and thus, numerous technological advancements were the outcome of it. However, these innovations lead to the rapid growth of cities and employed the people which further lead to the crowding of cities yet this provided them with hope and aspiration to fulfill their dreams.  

The  abolition of "slavery" abolished in 1834 and the establishment of 'People's charter' added to their scope of dreams. Yet, the dissertation of country-life leads to the materialism of thoughts and actions as reflected in "Hard-times" by Charles Dickens. These advancements were also quite reflective of the colonial gains England was cherishing.
