What is the sentence

Match the literary terms with their meaning.
mixer [17]

Answer:

1. Simile

In this figure of speech, two things are compared that are not really the same, but are used to make a point about each other. The difference between simile and metaphor is that you can obviously see words "like" in the sentence.

Example: “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get”

2. Metaphor

The use of metaphor compares two things that are not alike and finds something about them to make them alike. Some writers try to use this style to create something profound out of comparing two things that appear to have nothing at all in common.

Example: “My heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill”

3. Alliteration

This is a very common figure of speech that involves using words that begin with the same sound. It is often used in advertising slogans to create something catchy that more people will remember.

Example: “She sells sea shells by the seashore.”

4. Irony

This figure of speech tries to use a word in a literal sense that debunks what has just been said. It is often used to poke fun at a situation that everyone else sees as a very serious matter.

Example: “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!”

5. Imagery

This involves using the aid of other figures of speech like simile, metaphor, personification, onomatopoeia etc. to create visual representation of ideas in our minds.

Example: "It was dark and dim in the forest","He whiffed the aroma of brewed coffee"

6. Rhyme Scheme

It is the pattern of rhyme that comes at the end of each verse (line) in poetry. Rhyme scheme is often represented by alphabets.

Example: "I was riding a horse one day

                When he suddenly stopped in the way

                Along came a car

                My horse went far

                Really, really far away"

The above limerick has the rhyme scheme of 'AABBA'

7. Personification

This is a way of giving an inanimate object the qualities of a living thing. This can sometimes be used to invoke an emotional response to something by making it more personable, friendly and relatable.

Example: “The sun smiled down on her”

8. Onomatopoeia

This is the use of a word that actually sounds like what it means. These words are meant to describe something that actually sounds very much like the word itself. This is a trick often used in advertising to help convey what something is really like.

Examples: “hiss”,“ding-dong”,"buzz"

9. Refrain

Refrain is a verse, a line, a set, or a group of some lines that repeats at regular intervals in different stanzas in a poem.

Example: The art of losing isn’t hard to master;

                so many things seem filled with the intent

                to be lost that their loss is no disaster…

                Lose something every day. Accept the fluster

                of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.

                The art of losing isn’t hard to master

10. Repetitive

Repetition involves repetition of words, phrases, syllables, or even sounds in a full piece of poetry.

11. Hyperbole

This figure of speech makes things seem much bigger than they really were by using grandiose depictions of everyday things. Hyperbole is often seen as an exaggeration that adds a bit of humor to a story.

Example: "I've told you a million times!”

How would the story have been different had it been told from Laurie's perspective instead of his mother's?
posledela

If the story would have been from Laurie's perspective, A. The audience would have been afraid of Laurie's mother because Laurie is so afraid of her, and C. The audience might have known that Laurie was misbehaving at school and making up the "Charles" character to mislead his mother.

It is clear that Laurie is afraid of his mother, he wouldn't have invented Charles to cover up for his misbehaving otherwise. This fear would have appear in the story, as well as the truth of his behaviour.

Do you think I'm correct??<br><br> If not, please explain why and what you think.
nadya68 [22]

There's no other answer that is reasonable but the one you picked. I don't know about you, but when I'm at home talking, I sometimes use my hands as punctuation. Both my wife and I talk with enthusiasm. That word might is very strong and very important. It means he's talking on the phone while the other hand MIGHT be on the wheel. If he's in a fight with the other half, he might have one hand on the wheel and he might not.


So go with what you think.
