Answer:

A) Malapropism

Explanation:

A malapropism is the use of an incorrect word in the place of a correct word with a similar sound. This usually results in comical or nonsensical statements. Malapropisms can happen by mistake in natural speech, but they are also common as jokes and humorous utterances in comedy and literature. The name comes from the character of Mrs. Malaprop, from Richard Brinsley Sheridan's play <em>The Rivals</em>.

With officers in night, he would march to the canteen like a guardsman. (Annotate)
vekshin1

Answer:

With officers in <em>the </em>(a)<em> </em>night, <em><u>he </u></em>(b)<em><u> </u></em>would march to <em><u>the canteen </u></em>(c)<em><u> </u></em><u><em>like a </em></u><em><u>guardsman. </u></em>(d)

(a) The article "the" is missing before the word night.

(b) "he" is the subject of this sentence. The subject is rather undefined, vague, and needs to be investigated for one to have a clearer understanding of what this snippet is all about.

(c) "the canteen": This is another mystery noun in the above sentence. It begs the question of location. It also raises the question of why the "he" would match off to a canteen in the night.

(d) "like a guardsman": This is a simile that electrocutes the imagination. In this sentence, the three words above, besides acting as a simile and imagery (both of which are literary tools), functions as an Adverbial Clause which serves to qualify the verb <u>march.</u>

Explanation:

The only instruction given in the question is to Annotate.

To annotate means to give more <em>meaning to, to explain, to interpret, or to make more meaningful.</em>

Please note that an adverbial clause is a dependent clause that while functioning as an adverb qualifies another adverb, a verb, or even an adjective.

By way of further annotation, it suffices to say (with respect to the Grammatical Person) that the sentence above is reported in the third person singular.

Cheers

Which event, if added to this story, would be the best example of a subplot area need to be evacuated?
zimovet [89]

The event that, if added to this story, would be the best example of a subplot area that needs to be evacuated is  B. Meanwhile, a hiker gets lost and one of the rangers must rescue him.

This shows that By showing the story of a lost hiker while showing the story of rangers trying to act in a forest fire, the author presents a parallel plot.
