C. Your heart is ice.

A is a simile as it uses the word like in the comparison.
B is personification as it gives your fingers the human ability to dance.
D is also a simile as it uses the word as in the comparison.

The correct answer to your question is C.

"Your heart is ice" is an example of a metaphor. It's an example of a metaphor because it is referring to something being something, but it is not actually literal, for instance, lips cannot actually be ice.

Option A is a simile since it contains the word "like," option B is using personification because it is saying the fingers dance though that is something humans can do, and option D would be incorrect because it is also using a simile (it contains the word "like.")


I hope this helps! :)

In Poe's story. Fortunato is:
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a secondary character

Explanation:

The question above is related to "The Cask of Amontillado," a short story written by <em>Edgar Allan Poe</em>.

The <u>main character</u> in this story is "Montressor" because the story centers on him. As a primary character, Montressor can be found in the story's <u>many different scenes</u>. He is the protagonist in the story.

On the other hand, "Fortunato," is the secondary character because he acts as Montressor's victim. <em>Secondary characters</em> are essential in the story because their existence complete the story. Without Fortunato, Montressor will have no victim. As a victim,<u> Fortunato will be sympathized by the readers</u> but not that much admired just like the main character.

What connections does the author draw between the Black Death and the shift of power in Europe?
hjlf

Answer:

The first impact of the plague was, therefore, demographic. The lives they took in just seven years would take two centuries to recover, while the survivors would reorganize in a different way. During the epidemic years, the rural population had moved to the cities in search of food and company, and given the large number of vacancies left by the plague, they no longer had to return. The countryside was depopulated, while life in the cities was revitalized, driven by the concentration of fortunes that followed the high mortality. The old rural aristocracy, accustomed to living comfortably on incomes, finds two possibilities: lease their land at lower prices or exploit them directly, hiring producers and paying them higher and higher days. The stately power lost, therefore, part of its purchasing power, while the day laborers, regretful valuable due to their shortage, increased their well-being.

The shortage of arms and the rise of the bourgeoisie were decisive for the development of the technique, one of the hallmarks of the Renaissance, closely linked to the parallel advancement of science. Machines reduce the amount of force and work needed, and appear to serve a particular class, the bourgeoisie, which finds in them a concrete response to their needs. In the technical ascent an essential change of mentality prevails, since the manual work - the mechanical arts - was despised during the Middle Ages. Leonardo da Vinci claims it when he says: "In my opinion, the sciences that have not been born of experience, mother of all certainty, and that do not end in a definite experience, are vain and full of errors." Science and technique go hand in hand, and good proof of this are the calculations of the architect and sculptor Filippo Brunelleschi, prior to the construction of the dome of Santa María del Fiore, in Florence.
