I don't like the way this is worded. An allegory is a short type of poem. Not a genre. But the answer is D. If you look at general poetry structure, it tells a vivid story in a confined manner.
Answer: The answer is imagery.
Explanation:
Answer:
Imagery in literature refers to the use of words and analogy that appeals to the five senses.
Starting with Paragraph 7, the narrator states that after her lofty dreams of America, the fact that she needs to work to pay for her next meal and rent brought her back to reality...in her own words she states <em>"I had to put my feet down on earth"</em>
Another example of imagery used can be found in paragraph 1. She calls out to America for understanding as there are many immigrants who were beating out their heart at its gates. In other words, there are many immigrants who seek to enter into America. She speaks as though America were a living being.
The act of immigration is typified by the beating of hearts at America's gates.
In paragraph 5 she speaks of <em>hidden sap of centuries that would find release -colours that never saw light. </em>
The last part of that sentence is a good use of imagery as colour and light are very visual.
Cheers.

Answer:
John was saying by his words that he thought of her sometimes but he wouldn't dare try to go after her again. His tone was kind of rude and I say this because he literally said "I'll cut off my hand."
Abigail was saying for them not to speak another word about anything or she would pretty much kill them with a knife in the dead of night. Her tone wasn't nearly as nice as John meant his. The words used to say this was "I will come to you in the black of some terrible night and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you."
