Answer:

A. words used in ways that make their precise, common meanings clear

Explanation:

Literal means "keeping to the exact meaning of a word or words". Therefore, the first option would be the best definition of <em>literal language.</em>

D is wrong because <u>literal</u> means <em>basic</em> or <em>usual</em>.  

C is wrong because literal language does not necessarily affect the feelings or emotions of others.  

B is wrong because literal language does not necessarily make others change their opinions.

When you have information from one source that will be used in consecutive sentences, the information should be cited as one in-text citation at the end of the second sentence only. Multiple in-text citations to the similar work over a large piece of text can be visually clashing and is not fully compulsory.

The rule of thumb is to cite the very first sentence, make it clear you are still talking about the same work in your consecutive sentences and then make sure you are still talking about the work by adding another citation at the end (if this has continued for several sentences).

3. PART A: What does the phrase "lily of a man" most closely mean as it is used in line 3? A. a romantic lover B. a French noble
umka21 [38]

The phrase "lily of a man" as it is used in line 3 of Gary Soto's poem most closely means an anxious weakling, as is said in option C and explained below.

To find the answer, we used our knowledge of context clues.

<h3>What are context clues?</h3>

Context clues are any words or phrases that help us figure out the meaning or connotation of other words or phrases in the same context. Here, we need to understand the meaning of "lily of a man."

The context clues used for that is "A coward I am not," the phrase that comes immediately before "lily of a man." Since both phrases complete each other, we can assume they have similar meanings.

Therefore, we can safely conclude the speaker is saying that he is not an anxious weakling, not a coward. The best answer in this case is option C.
