The correct answer is C. Personification

Explanation:

In language, metaphor, simile, onomatopoeia, and personification are all figures of speech which are commonly used to convey deep or complex ideas by using figurative or non-literal language. In this case of personification, this figure of speech occurs in the case an object or non-human entity is described as a human because it displays human features. In the case of "The flames danced on the horizon" this is a clear example of personification because the author describes "the flames" as entities that dance despite dancing is an activity that belongs to humans not to fire, and therefore the author gives a non-human entity human qualities.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

In the given passage, the word puncheon refers to a smoothed log used during summer time as this is cool.

<u>Explanation: </u>

This extract, taken from Twain's Huckleberry Finn, is trying to create a scene, where the protagonist enters the church and finds a dog (hog) or two inside the church.

What effect does the phrase “my father intending to devote me, as the tithe of his sons, to the service of the Church” have on t
rodikova [14]

The correct answer for this question is A) It explains that at least one son must join the church (according to his dad)

The wording of this paragraph leads us to believe that the expression ''as the tithe of his sons'' demonstrates <u><em>how his father intended for at least one of his sons to serve the church</em></u>. This phrase denotes that none of his brothers chose to serve the church and had instead chosen different paths which led his dad to offer him as a last resource.

It could also imply the importance of church for his dad however thats entirely subjective.

This paragraph does not mention his brother's intelligence and definitely does not imply that he does not have a choice hence the wording ''my father intending to devote me (...)'' meaning his dad tried to offer him but he later decided otherwise.

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

A conjunction is a word used to connect other words, phrases, or clauses inside a sentence. A coordinating conjunction, more specifically, connects parts that have the same importance inside a sentence. It doesn't establish a subordinating relationship between clauses, for example. Both clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction are equally important. The coordinating conjunctions are: FANBOYS (for, and, not, but, or, yet, so).

Subordinating conjunctions are used to introduce a dependent clause. They establish a relationship of dependence in the sentence - for the subordinate clause the make sense, it needs the main one. Examples of subordinating conjunctions are: whenever, while, until, although, because, if, even though, etc.

Finally, correlative conjunctions are pairs of words that connect two ideas. These ideas are usually expressed in similar structures. They are: neither... nor, either... or, both... and, not only... but also, whether... or, so/as... as.
