That particular passage has numerous literary devices. Alliteration in the "Beams so Bright" and personification in "when Nature made Her...". The entire passage is a rhetorical question and it can be answered in he next passage with simile. Sydney answers the rhetorical question with a simile, saying her she is like a skillful painter and is like the sun. The fact that her black eyes shine bright is an oxymoron because black is dark and has no light with which to shine.

The answer is C (metaphor)

It wouldn't be simile because a simile would use like or as

It wouldn't be parallelism because its not using similar phrases or clauses

It wouldn't be hyperbole because hyperbole is meant to not be taking literal or not meant...overkill.

For number one, you are looking for the sentence that basically makes the most sense. In this instance, it is
B: Our team practiced hard this week; therefore, we expect to do well at the game tonight.

For number 2, it’s the same thing. Looking for the sentence that sounds correct. In this case, it is
A: The transmission needs to be completely replaced; the car also needs a new muffler.

For number three, you are looking for the sentence that correctly lists the things in the sentence. In this instance, it is
B: I would like to go to the beach in Barcelona, Spain; Honolulu, Hawaii; and Rio Dijenero, Brazil.

For number four, the same thing follows as the question above. Your answer would be
B: For dinner you can choose steak, chicken, or pork; baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, or fries; and broccoli, green beans, or salad.

The root mal means bad or evil. Can you defermine what the word maleficent means by using
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The word maleficent means causing harm especially by supernatural means, and we can determine this because the root 'mal' means evil as stated, and maleficent is a term used for evil occurences (specifically in movies and stuff)

Explanation:

So you can determine that the adjective describes something evil or bad because of the use of the root :) Sorry if this isn't specific enough, but it's quite straight forward to me at least so I don't know how to elaborate if you need a more formal answer
