For PLATO users the answer would be: "According to some scholars, when poorly educated people read, wrote, and spoke, they corrupted the English language." and "There was no authority on the"correct" way to use or spell words."


I hope this helps anyone. Also if it helps to know, I got it right on the test. :)

In this passage from Walden, what analogy is Thoreau using?
zloy xaker [14]

Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau was even imprisoned for refusing to pay taxes in protest for the Mexican-American War and the slavery.

In this passage from Walden,  Thoreau the analogy is:

He is comparing life to a moving train

Here we have the evidence to support the analogy:

Let us spend one day as deliberately as Nature, and not be thrown off the track by every nutshell and mosquito's wing <u>that falls on the rails.</u>

Is someone able to help me with 2.02 Language in King's Letter Worksheet
drek231 [11]

Answer and Explanation:

  • Type of figurative language: Metaphor.
  • Meaning of figurative language: The metaphor presents an implicit comparison between the girl's mental state and her unhappiness with a cloudy, melancholy and dull day.
  • Effect on tone and mood: The metaphor promotes a melancholy tone and a sad mood, as it shows how racism and intolerance can end the happiness of a child who is being prevented from having fun just by the color of her skin.
  • Effect on audience: This allows the audience to feel uncomfortable with racism, because it realizes how depressing it is for those who are attacked by it.
