Diction is the writer's word choice style.  Imagery is writing in such a way that the reader forms a mental image of multiple senses not just visual.


In "Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket," Jack Finney effectively creates suspense using both of these literary devices.

What does the term “plastic” most likely mean as used in paragraph 2 of "Self-Reliance" by Ralph Waldo Emerson?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

C. something that can be molded or shaped

Explanation:

Emerson's essay "Self-Reliance" mostly deals with individualism and the relationship of a non-conformist individual to the society that forces an individual to conform.

Basically, whene Emerson states that "society isn't the measure of all things" he suggests that people should follow their inner voice, follow their heart and instincts, rather than do what society expects them to do, depriving themselves of every spontaneity.

In paragraph 2, he states that people should be "...pious aspirants to be

noble clay plastic under the Almighty effort...".

That basically means that every man should mold their own life from the clay that was given to him and not merely take a shape of whatever society wants him to take, refusing his individuality by doing so.

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of The Prince.
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The idea stressed in the passage is:

C) the dismantling of an acquired state.

Explanation:

"The Prince" is a famous book by Machiavelli that explains his views on how to obtain and maintain power. In this particular excerpt, Machiavelli is defending the idea that dismantling an acquired state is necessary if the intention is to have power over it and keep it. He says, "The Romans, in  order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled  them, and did not lose them," using this fact as an example to prove his point. According to Machiavelli, when people belonging to the conquered state are used to having freedom, if you do not take that freedom away, they will use it to destroy you. Therefore, in order to stay in power, dismantling the conquered state is crucial.

Incomplete question. However, I answered from a general perspective,

Answer:

<u>C. Leaders who speak multiple languages have enhanced opportunities to connect with their followers and other leaders. </u>

Explanation:

Indeed, most people would expect a leader with multiple language speaking abilities to better connect with followers and other leaders.

For example, a leader who apart from speaking French, also speaks English and Arabic would easily find it easy to form connections with other leaders who speak these languages.
