Question

How does the euphemism "grew silent for all time" affect this sentence?

Answer 1

the correct answer is C

As an Euphemism is  a mild or indirect word or expression replaced by one considered to be too harsh or blunt when referring to something unpleasant or embarrassing. In the sentence "listening, in fancy, to voices that long ago grew silent for all time, and to once familiar songs that nobody sings now." the author refers to the narrator recalling all friends who has probably passed away.
