He was bold, you could tell, not by the way he walked, talked, or even by the way he shouted at the peasants below him, but by what he was wearing. A dark, long black cloak that caught in the wind as he strutted past his enemies as they bowed before him, black goggles you could not see his eyes through, wild white locks, and shiny black boots that glistened as they caught the slivers of light shining through the night. He was incredible. He stretched out his hand to grab the powerful wand, not yet touching it, when I noticed a gaping scar on his left hand. I was so in awe that I could not stand. Would this be the end of life as we know it?
I hope this helps, this was taken from one of the stories I am currently writing. :)
Have a wonderful day!
The best sentence that analyzes the use allusion in the passage is where he says he is not Prince Hamlet.
What does this mean. I’m confused
I think it would be answer D, to introduce an idea because it's introducing the idea of a Venus Fly Trap's diet.
The real meaning behind the euphemism "areas are depopulated" is "People are killed during a war," as stated in option B and explained below.
<h3>What is euphemism?</h3>
We call euphemism the figure of speech that says something in a way that sounds less bad than it really is. Suppose your break your leg playing football and someone asks you if it hurts. You reply, "Just a little," which is an euphemism, since your leg actually hurts a lot.
Therefore, to find the option that would be the real meaning of "areas are depopulated," we must find a statement that is quite bad:
- We can eliminate option A because the meaning is the opposite of what we need.
- Option B is the correct answer. It is really bad that people are dying, so using "depopulated" to say that would be an euphemism.
- We can eliminate option C. Like the first option, this is the opposite of the meaning we need.
- Option D has a similar meaning to "depopulate," but it is not a bad thing. There would be no euphemism here.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option B as the correct answer.
