Full Question:
What type of figurative language is used in the first and second lines of "November" by Alice Cary?
A) Hyperbole
B) Simile
C) Onomatopoeia
D) Personification
Answer:
The correct answer is D) Personification
Explanation:
First, let's take a look a the referenced lines below:
"The robin will wear on his bosom"
"A vest that is bright and new"
Notice that the poet states that a bird will wear a vest. Ideally, only humans wear clothing.
This means that an animal has been ascribed a human attribute. Whenever this happens with an animal, place or thing, personification has been utilized.
So by way of definition, personification is a figurative language involving the attribution of human nature or character to an animal, place, or thing.
Another interesting example of personification is
"The summer is here. The sun gladly grins ear to ear."
The sun is an inanimate object it is not supposed to be able to grin or be glad. But the meaning is not lost on the reader because, unlike winter, during summer, there is a lot of sunlight.
- Onomatopoeia is the wrong answer. It is a literary device wherein words which imitate the natural sound of an animal or a thing is used to create a more effective description. See definition here: brainly.com/question/21505822

Answer:
i think it’s ”earliest ones” i’m not super sure though
Explanation:
Answer:
Well, a compund is putting two words together to create one. I don't see a compund owrd in this sentence. The closest word I see to being a compound word would be "slide off" but that would only be if it was written as "slide-off." Or it could be "started" because it has "start" and "ed" in it.
It could be "slide-off" or "started." I'm unsure.
Pretest doesn't belong because it doesn't have to do with cooking
