Answer: The bold phrase in the sentence provided ("figurative language") can be replaced with the word (C.) symbolism.

Explanation: Symbolism is a literary device that consists in using symbols to represent an idea or thought. In other words,<u> it is about resorting to words to create symbolic meanings instead of using these words to express their literal meaning.</u> Therefore, in many cases, "symbolism" is used as a synonym for "figurative language". Actually, <u>symbolism is a type of figurative language. </u> For that reason, it can be said that option C. includes a more specific term.

Answer:

symbolism

Explanation:

Symbolism is the use of objects to represent an idea or truth. It is a type of figurative language. Since the prompt asks for more specific vocabulary, the answer should be a choice that narrows down the type of figurative language. Symbolism is the best option. Phrases, sayings, and terminology are all too broad.

In Langston Hughes's poem "Justice," what is Justice a symbol of?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

C. the justice system skewed against African Americans.

Explanation:

Here's the poem:

That Justice is a blind goddess

Is a thing to which <u>we black are wise</u>:

Her bandage hides two festering sores

That once perhaps were eyes.

Notice how Hughes writes that "we black are wise." This implies that the justice he speaks of (which is referred to as a "her" throuhgout the poem) is "blind" when it comes to the struggles of African Americans.

Choice A is incorrect because the poem clearly implies that the justice system is biased against blacks.

Choice B is incorrect because the poem calls justice "blind," which implies that she is flawed.

Choice D is incorrect because there is no mention of "human rights" or not caring." Justice is described as being "blind" which does not imply either.

Correct the following paragraph so that it uses the right words and includes appropriate apostrophes.
sineoko [7]

Yesterday, my friends went to the cite (replace with city) of a world-famous puppy park with their dogs. Theyre (Their) dogs' tails were wagging so quickly they looked like helicopters! It was adorable. Once they were their (there), the dogs got to run around and play while the people talked about there (their) favorite animals. Yesterday was a lot of fun for dog lovers.

Most of these errors are the wrong uses of "there" "they're" and "their". Their is possessive, there is pointing to where it is happening, and they're is "they are" describing what they are doing. When it is discussing multiple possessions, add a ' at the end. Found this helpful? Give it a Brainiest Award if so.
