<u>ABOUT</u>

A preposition is a word (usually a short one) that are used to show a relationship between a noun or a pronoun and other words in a sentence. Prepositions are usually followed by nouns, pronouns or gerund verbs, they can also be found at the end of a sentence. They may express position, direction, movement, possession, time, how something is done.

"About" is a preposition because it is placed in front of a noun "her early years" while connecting a particular action (the singing of the caged bird) to another (her early years).

gregori [183]

The dance squad had eight members when it won the competition.

A relative clause can be used as an adjective or an adverb. Relative clauses must contain both a subject and a verb. They also begin with a relative pronoun (question words and that). The relative clause in the last option is "when it won the competition". It starts with "when" which is a relative pronoun. It describes when the action takes place which makes the entire clause an adverb. It has a subject "it" and a verb "won". Options B and C should be immediately thrown out because they do not have a relative pronoun. Option A does not work because there is no subject after "that".

Which poetic device does the speaker use in the line, “Since Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman”?
vlabodo [156]
The speaker is using allusion it this line.
Allusion is a figure of speech in which something outside of the source text is being referred to. So here, Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman aren't actually characters in this literary piece of work, but the author is making a reference to them nevertheless.

It would be great if someone helped me... How is the meaning of eccentric related tot he root "centr"?

Someone who is eccentric means they have unusual or odd behavior, this then relates to the origin of the word which is egocentric meaning self centered. This then also goes on to relate to "center" because a person is "self centered" or egocentric.
