Answer: Personification

Explanation:

On this current sonnet, <u>personification</u> is the figure on speech that's being used.

This literary concept refers to those writings in which the author presents non-human objects, such as animals, furniture or even an abstract idea, and gives them human characteristics in order for the reader to feel as if it was being talked about one (human).

Following Sonnet 10 as an example, we can see that the author is personifying death as if it was speaking to us personally, and asking not to be afraid from it.

The discovery that the men we had scorned as peasant guerrillas were, in fact, a lethal, determined enemy and the casualty lists
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The best option is letter A) felt their efforts were not successful.

Explanation:

The excerpt we are analyzing here was taken from a memoir called "A Rumor of War" by Philip Caputo. Caputo recalls his experience at the Vietnam War and how he believes America's involvement in it was all for nothing.

As we can tell from the excerpt, soldiers did not seem well prepared at first. They misjudged their enemy, thinking of them as mere "peasant guerrillas". The enemies turned out to be lethal, and more and more American soldiers died each week. That "broke [their] confidence", which means they felt their efforts were not successful. In the book, the author even says he wishes he had different war stories to tell instead of the ones he actually lived. Battles in Vietnam were exhausting and never-ending; the enemy was seemingly undefeatable, hiding in jungles filled with traps and snipers.
