English

Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago

This comes from Jonathan Edward’s famous sermons, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.” It is said that he read this sermon dispassionately, in a monotone voice, which only heightened the sense of shock and horror at the God he was portraying. When people heard him describe God in such a fashion, many fell to the floor, weeping, wailing, and crying out in terror for their very lives. It was considered to be a great “revival sermon.” I am shocked by this sermon as well, but for completely different reasons. Jonathan Edwards is widely considered to be America’s greatest theologian, which I find terribly disturbing.

America is a melting pot of cultures. This statement compares America to a pot of soup. What type of figurative language is used
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

It is not alliteration because that would be a sentence most words start with the same letter (ex. Sally sells seashells by the seashore). It is not a simile because similes use 'like' and 'as' to compare two things. By process of elimination, it has to be a metaphor.

What is the correct way to use quotation marks when quoting passages of more than one paragraph?
irga5000 [103]
The correct answer is C.Use quotation marks at the beginnings of all paragraphs, and at the end of the last paragraph only.

That is done so as to show when new paragraphs and thoughts begin. It is not necessary to close them all down as you can only close the last one down and it is enough.
