Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the 3) “The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.”

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the other options do not specifically reflect the value that Montresor places on his reputation. Option 2 is a description of the Carnival costume and option 4 is an opinion about Montresor's family. In addition, in option 1 Montresor is stressing that, in relation to Fortunato, he has always acted moved by good will, but there is no reference to the value that he places on his reputation. It is only in option 3 where he hints at it—he tolerated Fortunato's endless injuries, but he could not accept being offended by him.

In "My Name," the line "My name is the Mexican records my father plays on Sunday
Lelechka [254]

The correct answer is Metaphor

Explanation:

In the line presented, the author Sandra Cisneros is comparing her name to the Mexican records her father listens; this is likely because her name has an important Mexican influence. Moreover, in terms of figurative or literary devices, this is known as a metaphor because the author is trying to explain the meaning of her name through a comparison between the name and the records. Also, this is not a simile because there is not an explicit word for comparison such as "like", or personification because there are not objects, places, etc. that had been given human traits.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Yes!

Explanation:

I think this is a good problem for society because if there were no racism, then George Floyd wouldn't have died and the black lives matter wouldn't happen. I also think there wouldn't be a mob on the capitol if there were no racism today! BLACK LIVES MATTER!
