3 0

Answer:

The Rhetorical device used in the example is Pathos.

Explanation:

Rhetorical Device is simply a literary tool which helps us to understand the structure and writing style of any particular sentence.

‘The Glass Castle’ is a book by Jeannette Walls where she describes her own life story of poverty. The line, Years from now when all the junk they got is broken and long forgotten,’ Dad said, ‘you’ll still have your stars’ is an example of Pathos rhetorical device. The appeal of this device is based on emotion.

The line depicts how her father provides an justification for not having any Christmas present for his children. There’s a deeply felt emotion in this line. The helplessness of a father and a sadness of his kids.

PLEASE, I NEED HELP!!!!!
MakcuM [25]

The answer is that the author used the word willow to portray two different meanings by using the techniques of metaphor and personification.


  1. ''An old <u>willow</u> with hollow branches slowly swayed his few high  tendrils and sang(...) >> Here the author used the technique of personification in order to explain that the branches performed the human action of dancing.
  2. ''Love is a young green <u>willow</u> (...)'' >> Here the author used the technique of metaphor to compare love to a green willow (Willows are associated with spirituality and the ability to bend without snapping, a methaphor that is commonly used in Celtic culture to teach that we must adjust to the situation/feeling instead of fighting against it)

Hope this helps!
