I personally would say c) irony.

Why?

Alliteration is like the sally seashells kids song.

Metaphor is saying " he is a rock" when "he" is not actually a rock

Hyperbole is something exaggerated or a claim.

That makes me believe it is irony. Hope this helps.

erastova [34]

Answer:

This poem shows the problem of how African Americans were treated and Cullen's comment is that he does not lose hope, that this will change.

Explanation:

Cullen reflects on these lines that African Americans are somehow oppressed by whites.<em> "We shall not always plant while others reap"</em>, <em>"Not always bend to some more subtle brute". </em>

This problem will come to an end, since they will not wait forever or continue to suffer.

<em>"We were not made to eternally weep.", "So in the dark we hide the heart that bleeds,  And wait, and tend our agonizing seeds.</em> "

Here it is shown how Cullen transmits hope in his words, showing that they will wait, since they will not suffer forever.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

During sixteen long months <u>this assault</u> has blotted out the whole pattern of democratic life in an appalling number of independent nations, great and small. <u>The assailants</u> are still on the march, threatening other nations, great and small. Therefore, as your President, performing my constitutional duty to "give to the Congress information of the state of the Union," I find it, unhappily, necessary to report that <u>the future and the safety of our country and of our democracy are overwhelmingly involved in events far beyond our borders.</u> Armed defense of democratic existence is now being gallantly waged in four continents. If that defense fails, all the population and all the resources of Europe, Asia, Africa and Australasia will be dominated by the conquerors. Let us remember that the total of those populations and their resources in those four continents greatly exceeds the sum total of the population and the resources of the whole of the Western Hemisphere-many times over.

Explanation:

For a little context, FDR wanted to counter the tendency of Americans to avoid any involvement in affairs beyond their borders and their isolationist policies.

I hope this answers your question :)
