When looking at character description, you must look at action and dialogue. While he is being defiant towards his Aunt, are there specific reasons why? Has he said or done anything up to this point that would explain his actions of defiance? Sometimes we do things out of spite (to get back at someone), or we do something to get attention from someone. So, the fact that Tom is willing to do this to his Aunt, what does this tell us about the kind of person he is?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Some of the details that help the author to achieve the goal of letting readers know what they're getting into if they practice Kitesurfing are the following.
Tyronne Skenkel is the author of the article "Flying Above the Water."
Although he is very enthusiastic about his extreme sport Kitesurfing, he wants the readers to know that despite Kitesurfing is a challenging but highly exciting water sport, there are some risks that need to be considered. In the article, he says that "one minute you're on the water, and the next your heart skips a beat as you're soaring
through the air."
So there are high emotions involved in this new extreme sports that is practiced in Australia and Brasil, but it is not for everybody because there are considerable risks. However, the author says it is so much fun to practice and it is becoming very popular.
The humor that you forgot the excerpt.
Answer: A) personification: “mask thy monstrous visage.
Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to nonhuman objects. Similes and metaphors are comparisons between elements that aren't obviously related (metaphors are direct comparison while similes use the words "like" or "as"). In the given excerpt we can see an example of personification in the line "to mask thy monstrous visage" (human action) this is referring to the cavern (nonhuman object).
The characters are major characters to the story and change over time.
