Answer:

The <em>effect</em> of the <em>figurative language</em> in this passage, apart from <em>enriching the passage</em>, is <em>illustrating more vividly the reason why those would escape</em> (the strong connection that exists between those who escape and their friends.)

Explanation:

In the given passage, the figurative language is represented by the <em>phrase</em>:

<em>the strong cords of affection that bind them</em>

This is a metaphor: the <em>strong cords</em> refer to those <em>love feelings</em> that act as <em>connection</em> between the people escaping and their friends. The <em>metaphor of cords and binding</em> talks about <em>how close these people are and how those strong ties (feelings of affection) would make them overcome fear or danger and try to escape.</em>

30 points! plz help!!!!<br><br><br> which objection do people raise against globalization
Gwar [14]
The main objection studied in political schools:
Globalization causes new global problems which lead to a situation where actions in one country affect another country, or even the rest of the world (as an example - the 2008 economical crisis). Globalization comes with an interdependence of the problems that happen around the world and requires greater collaboration between countries.

When lincoln spoke of a pernicious abstraction he was referring to?
Usimov [2.4K]

Lincoln was alluding to whether or not the South had actually departed the Union when he described it as a "pernicious abstraction."

<h3>What led the South to break away from the Union?</h3>

Many contend that the Southern states' desire to protect the system of slavery was the fundamental reason behind the conflict. Others downplay slavery and emphasize other aspects, including taxes or the concept of states' rights.

<h3>What made Lincoln pardon the South?</h3>

Lincoln's Reconstruction program was built on the idea that the South had never really left the Union, and his plan for Reconstruction was based on forgiveness. In order to signal his determination to bring the once-united states back together, he therefore issued the Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction in 1863.
