Answer: 3) The narrator has been insulted many times and now vows revenge against Fortunato.

Explanation: All other options are the result of a poor understanding of the text: in a void, the "thousand injuries of Fortunato" could be understood as injuries that Fortunato has suffered, but the context lets us know it is the other way around as soon as we read "I had borne," which actually means "I have suffered" (borne is the past participle of bear, not of born). To <em>venture upon</em> here means to start doing something new, figuratively coming into a new territory, which, in this context, is injury.

Which literary device does this passage most clearly show?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The literary device this passage most clearly shows is letter B. parallelism.

Explanation:

Parallelism consists of the repetition of a certain grammatical structure inside a sentence. The purpose of such repetition is to avoid confusion, making the speech clear, interesting, and easy to be understood

In the passage, we find the repetition of a specific group of words in "proud of the straight lines he did not will, proud of the tractor he did not own or love, proud of the power he could not control." Notice that this repetition consists of an identical cluster of words - "proud of" - spoken three times, followed by  similar structures with article +(adjective)  noun + pronoun + auxiliary verb + not + verb. The fact the we have the same structure repeated inside a sentence constitutes parallelism.
