The correct answer is "In this selection, the use of the word <em>inundation</em> is probably exaggerated."
In this situation, inundation is not a real inundation/flood, therefore it is not literal. It is a word used to exaggerate the fact that the housewives are constantly cleaning the house, sweeping and mopping. You can see that too in the excerpt <em>"under the discipline of mops and brooms". </em>We know the author is referring to the cleaning process and therefore, chooses to use the word <em>inundation</em> to create more depth to what he's describing.
Shakespeare uses alliteration, end rhyme and onomatopoeia in his poem. Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound a the beginning of a group of words. An example of this is the first line: "Full fathom five thy father lies". The /f/ sound is repeated. He also uses end rhyme in his poem to create the rhyme scheme ABABCCDED. Lastly Shakepeare uses the sound device onomatopoeia. An onomatopoeia is word that sounds the same as it's meaning. An example of this is "Ding-Dong."
Answer:
(a) Florida belongs to the Spanish.
Explanation:
Elisa Carbone's novel "Blood on the River" revolves around the story of a British teenager and his journey to James Town in America. The novel follows Samuel Collier and his journey by sea, going to the new settlement of Jamestown in America, which the British had conquered/ colonized.
Samuel was one of the many passengers on <em>"The Susan Constant"</em> making its way to America. Though he was a page of the ship's captain, Captain John Smith, Samuel also wanted to explore and go to the New World, that is America. But as they traveled along, the ship doesn't dock in Florida as the place was under the Spanish. And at that time, the Spanish and the British were all fighting to get more land colonized for their respective kings or empires.
