Answer: D. Personification.

Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to nonhuman objects. In the given lines from Plath's poem "Edge" we can see a clear example of personification, because he is saying that the feet (nonhuman objects) are saying "We have come so far, it is over" and as we know, speaking is a human characteristic, so the correct answer is option D.

Answer:

D). Personification.

Explanation:

Personification is demonstrated as the figure of speech that approaches or proposes humanly characteristics/attributes to objects or animals and abstract ideas or notions, etc. It functions to bring life to these inanimate objects in order to relate and understand it more effectively and comprehensively.

In Sylvia Plath's poem "Edge" employs 'personification' in the given lines:

"Feet seem to be saying:

We have come so far, it is over."

Here, the 'feet' have been personified which is reflected through the words 'saying', 'we have... far' to offer a voice(human attribute) to the 'feet' in order to propose a specific effect in the poem. Thus, <u>option D</u> would be the correct answer to this question.

The boy in the striped pajamas chapter 7 summary?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

The summary for The Boy in the Striped Pajamas goes as follows:

After spending a few weeks at OutWith, Bruno began looking for a new way of speaking. He wanted to avoid being absorbed in it, as he was walking around crying with his head in his head like one of his old neighbors in Berlin, Mr. Laura. Bruno once recalled that his mother warned him not to make fun of Mr. Laura. He suffered a head injury during World War I, and his mother claimed that Bruno didn't know what the young man was until then.

Bruno hasn't thought much about Mr. Laura in the last few years, but when the man had a headache, Bruno realized he had to be a little distracted. He decided to hang a tire swing on an old oak tree. Bruno collected pitches from the basement and brought them  to the tree. Then he looked for a tire. BN's

Graphic Novel: Macbeth  Bruno went to talk to one of the soldiers because neither his mother nor his father was at home. He met Lieutenant Kotler, a young soldier he saw at home the day his family arrived. Kotler was always dressed neatly and  had impressive muscular arms, but he wore too many colognes. To make matters worse, Gretel was in the habit of  laughing at everything he said he was flirting with him. Gretel was talking to Lieutenant Kotler when Bruno came to him and asked for a spare tire for his swing. The soldier patronized Bruno and then Pavel, a lean old man. Pavel came home every day, peeled the  vegetables and served dinner.  Kotler barked at Pavel and repeatedly called him a name that Bruno couldn't understand. In a voice that offended both Bruno and Gretel, the soldier ordered Pavel to remove Bruno's tires from the vault.

Later that day, Bruno tried a new tire swing. When Bruno tried to raise himself, he lost his foothold and fell, hitting his head and scratching his leg. Pavel appeared and carried the boy to the kitchen, where he got a first aid kit and groomed Bruno's wounds. Bruno was worried that he would die from an injury, but Pavel insisted that he was okay. When Bruno asked him how he knew, Pavel said he was a doctor before. Pavel's revelation confused Bruno, who didn't understand how his servants would become doctors.

Best of luck to you!
