<span>The correct answer is A. metaphor. A metaphor is a rhetorical figure of speech in which two things are compared without using words such as like or as. So here, Emily is being compared to 'a shell burned out by one fierce moment of fire' - she's not an actual shell, but rather compared to one through the use of a metaphor.</span>

PLEASEEEEEE IM NOT ASKING MUCH BUT CAN YOU HELP ME HELPPP MEEEEE I DONT UNDERSTAND
const2013 [10]

I’ll try my best to explain.

So what you Copy and pasted is basically talking about how to order and basically summarize your text. If you haven’t already, I suggest re-reading through the text you were given to and do the steps. For example I’lll take the ”Describe the setting of your novel or short story“ So what you would do after you read the text is look for clues. Like ”What is this setting? Where does it take place at?” So if your text says that for example “Y/N Was in a nice field with a cool breeze“ You could say that y/n was in a field with a cool breeze blowing on him/her! And if you wanted to describe a conflict, you would have to describe the war,battle,or fight in the story. So for example: “Y/N Was fighting against the soviet union in 1912” That’s a conflict. A Conflict revolves around a fight. So you would describe the conflict by saying “The conflict was when Y/N was fighting against enemies in the cold winter of 1912” and explain why she was. Hope this kinda helped!

Which universal theme is expressed in this speech?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

C. Freedom is a fundamental right of all humankind.

Explanation:

The universal theme that is expressed through this speech is freedom because Martin Luther King Jr. is talking about how the Negroes of their community are being treated horribly, with violence and cruel words and discrimination. He is talking about the idea of fighting against the racial injustice that they are facing, and how the Negroes are silenced by the people around them. Dr. King describes how the Negro aren't allowed to vote, even though it is considered to be a freedom a person rightfully has.

<em>"The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their </em><u><em>freedom</em></u><em> is inextricably bound to our </em><u><em>freedom</em></u><em>. We cannot walk alone."</em>
