Explanation:
Technology has the power to affect not only education but also culture, religion and personal thoughts and beliefs. While the world population is continually growing, our global world seems to be getting smaller as we are able to connect to people in a way that was never imagined. Radio and television were among the early contributors to this new form of mass media and played a role in affecting world political views and religious beliefs as well as changing how we view literacy in an educational setting.

<h3>
Answer: A) Personification</h3>
Explanation:
The winter weather isn't a person, but the author is making it seem like the cold wind is from Jack Frost's breath. So the author is making the wind or just cold weather in general seem like a person of sorts, or part of a person's traits. Personification is the act of turning any inanimate object or non-human thing to have human traits. Hence the "person" in "personification".
Other examples of personification are sentences like:
- The tree danced in the wind
- The river swallowed more ground as the water rose more rapidly
- Time flies when you're having fun
- The ocean lashed angrily at the beach.
I'm sure you can probably come up with more creative examples or look them up elsewhere to get a better grasp on how personification works.
Answer:
It means that the walk from the prison-door to the marketplace seems trecherous and long to Hester Prynne.
Explanation:
Nathanael Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" is about the story of Hester Prynne, a woman convicted of adultery, and the "<em>punishment</em>" that was given to her. The novel also deals with themes of society, religion, good vs. evil, public shaming, social stigma, etc.
In the given excerpt, the narrator is talking about the "walk" from the prison door to the marketplace where Hester will be 'on display' for the public to see. The narrator reveals,<em> "measured by the prisoner's experience, [the walk] might be reckoned a journey of some length"</em> which is how it was more of <em>"an agony from every footstep"</em> for Hester. These lines show how Hester thinks the walk is long and treacherous for her.
