<span>The selection from Melville’s novel MobyDick portrays nature as _____. 

The correct answer is: </span>powerful and mysterious 

The novel centers on man's multi-faceted interaction with nature, whether by trying to control or tame it; understand it; profit from it; or, in Ahab<span>’s case, defeat it. The book implies that nature, much like the </span>whale<span>, is an impersonal and inscrutable phenomenon.

What did those who fought at Gettysburg do that those who have gathered cannot?
EastWind [94]

<span>The men that fought and died at Gettysburg, have created a space wherein  the ground is sacred and holy. The people who have never attended the assembly will never be able to experience a holy ceremony. This was also a turning point in history wherein democracy was tested and graveyards for union soldiers were created.</span>

URGRNT FIGURITIVE LANGUAGE
icang [17]

1. <u>smilie</u> - A smilie compares things using like or as, in this case <em>"furnace was like a magnet" </em>

2. <u>personification</u> -  When you personify something, you are giving it human like traits. A sweater can't actually hug someone, therefore it is being personified.

3.  <u>metaphor</u> - Similar to a smilie, nut metaphors don't use like or as. The snow is being compared to a blanket.

4. <u>hyperbole</u> - Hyperboles are huge exaggerations on the truth. Obviously they won't sleep for a whole year, it's a light way of saying they are really tired.

5. <u>alliteration</u> - Alliteration is using the same letter of the start of the word. "winds whipped wondrously" all start with <em>W</em>.
