Answer: personification and enjambment

Personification refers to a rhetorical device in which the author gives human characteristics to nonhuman entities, such as animals, objects, natural phenomena or abstract concepts. In this case, the author uses personification when she says: "my skin has betrayed me."

Enjambment refers to the incomplete syntax at the end of a sentence. This means that the meaning of a sentence runs from one poetic line to the next, without terminal punctuation. The author uses enjambment in this excerpt, as the meaning of the sentences run from one line to the next.

Vonnegut uses satire to expose which societal

Tasya [4]

Answer:

I believe it's the last one.

Explanation:

One needs to look now farther than the first paragraph to realize that Vonnegut's tale is laced with irony and satire. The strongest hint is when he mentions that there are over 100 ammendments in the Constitution. All these ammendments are designed to make society "perfect." Later on George and his wife Hazel are discussing how George's handicaps, the bags of birdshot tied to his legs, are terribly inconvenient and painful. Hazel suggests George break a law and remove the bags since he isn't competing against anyone at home. George replies that if he broke the law so would others and they'd end up right back in the "Dark Ages". These examples depict there is no such thing as a perfect society. Equality does not bring about perfection and competition is essential for a thriving economy. In every society there are winners and losers.

Sorry if i'm wrong.
