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.

deff fn [24]

Answer + Explanation:

A) Popular novels from the past often ask provocative questions that are important to consider today.

In this speech, President Reagan uses the ending of a popular novel of the '60s to help pose his question about whether history still has a place for America, her people and her ideals. He takes provocative questions written in an old novel and uses them to show important subjects that need to be addressed today.

B) Many Americans have given up and say that the nation is no longer great or a land of dreams.

In his speech Reagan states that many Americans have lost their faith in their country and no longer believe that it is a place for dreams and greatness. This people say that Americans must "cut our expectations, conserve and withdraw"

C) President Reagan believed that John Wayne would argue that he was not the last American hero, because there are many more.

After the passing of the iconic Hollywood actor, John "Duke" Wayne, the headlines on the newspapers called him the "Last American Hero". Reagan, being a close friend of the late actor, stated that Wayne would've hated being called that, since he knew there were still many other heroes in America.
