O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;

For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.

The correct answer is B) For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding.

The line that suggests a grieving person calling out to a loved one or a respected leader is "For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding."

The poem  “O Captain! My Captain!” was written by Walt Whitman in 1865, and it refers to the death of United States President Abraham Lincoln. It was included in a collection of poems about the American Civil War called "Sequel to Drum-Taps." The poem is a mourning one that pretends to honor and shows respect to the life of Lincoln.

Which type of figurative language is used in this sentence from George Orwell’s novel Keep the Aspidistra Flying?
slavikrds [6]

The figurative language used is a metaphor. A flashback refers to a previous event and there's no indication of Orwell referring to any previous events in this sentence. An oxymoron is when contradictory words are used in a conjunction such as faith unfaithful kept him falsely true. The word usage in this sentence isn't contradictory as it flows well in this sentence. A euphemism is a nice way to say a bothering statement. The sentence isn't any sort of bad claim, so the option of a euphemism is out of the question. A metaphor compares two things without using the words "like" or "as". In this sentence, Orwell compares advertising to the rattling of a stick inside of a swill-bucket. This makes metaphor the correct answer. Hope this helped :))
