Answer:

Symbolism

Explanation:

In literature, the use of a person, place, or object to represent or signify an abstract idea by making their meanings different from their original literal meaning is symbolism. In symbolism, a person, place, or thing doesn't necessarily have to be attached to a single meaning. Symbols are used in our everyday life, for example, some sports teams name themselves after animals just to make their name fearsome.

A dove is a common symbol used as a concept for peace, it is also used to end conflict. Ordinarily a dove is supposed to be white bird, but the use of symbolism has given a dove another literal meaning, which makes us see a dove as a sign of peace and tranquility.

blondinia [14]

Answer:

Because it has steep drops and seats that turn completely around  

Explanation:

Although you did not mention the article to which the question refers, we can say that the X² roller coaster was not made for fearful because of its numerous steep descents and its ability to rotate the train seats back and forth in 360 degrees, this being its main characteristic.

The rotation that the accents give are controlled by two tracks, however, the experience is totally modified and the ride on the X² allows an adrenaline rush much greater than any other roller coaster.
