Read the excerpt from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe". The blood leaped high; it spouted like a broken leaden pipe that, through a s

lender hole where it is worn, sends out a long and hissing stream as jets of water cleave the air. Which statement best describes the use of poetic elements in the excerpt? The figurative language describes the violence of the scene. The predictable rhyme scheme emphasizes the quick action. The symbolism of the blood suggests it is not real. The steady rhythm imitates a funeral march.

Answer: The figurative language describes the violence of the scene.

In this excerpt of <em>Pyramus and Thisbe</em>, Ovid uses very vivid imagery. He describes the blood flowing out of the body as if it was a broken leaden pipe. The blood was coming out in a long and hissing stream as jets of water. The figurative language used to describe this event helps us image the violence of the scene.

How are modern monsters hidden from us, and why does this make them especially frightening?
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

See explanation:

Explanation:

When you say the word "monster", you immediately visualize big furry giants with horns and large teeth. And perhaps they might have existed in the oldern days, who knows?

But today, its not those giants that are the real monsters. The real monsters are the people who are around you every day.

You talk to strangers on the internet. You come across people on streets every single day. You don't know if they're angels, or serial killers.

You might be pleased with someone's face and wealth, but you don't know what they're hiding underneath.

The scariest part is, those monsters can be anyone. It can be your friend next door, or even your best friend. You never know what they're hiding under the mask.
