I really personally dont think it should be taught in school at all, honestly I do not like history at all, due to what both men and women dealt with, from the unequal rights to the other horrible things that occurred. It seems like disrespectful to teach this due to it being some of their ancestors that were slaves at a time or any part of history in that matter. I think if a student wanted to learn about it then they should read about it in the libraires, or ask a teacher for tutoring on the subject, and not actually teach any students about this.
I would choose the first one! good luckk: ))
The answer is:
B) True, because otherwise people won’t understand what you are trying to say.
Hope I helped ^-^

Since the only figurative language we could identify in the passage is personification, we can choose "the personification emphasizes the distressed and..."
<h3>What is figurative language?</h3>
Figurative language consists of employing words in a way that gives them a different meaning, one that is not literal and that depends on the context for interpretation. Let's briefly describe the figurative languages mentioned in the question:
- Alliteration - the use of the same consonant sound in the beginning of words that are subsequent to each other.
- Metaphor - the comparison of different things without using the words "as" or "like".
- Personification - the act of giving inanimate objects human qualities or behaviors.
- Simile - the comparison of different things that makes use of "as" or "like".
The only one among those figurative languages that is present in the passage from "The Great Gatsby" is personification. It is found in the line below:
- "a foghorn was groaning incessantly on the Sound"
The action of groaning cannot really be made by an object. Humans groan when they make inarticulate sounds to express despair or when they are in pain. Thus, the narrator is using personification, giving the foghorn the human ability of groaning.
The purpose of such personification is to convey the idea that the narrator is distressed. The incessant foghorn reveals the narrator's mood, his difficulty to sleep and his sensation that something bad will happen.
