Answer: C-The Cyclops’ effort to move the stone is compared to a simple task, showing his strength.

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things directly by using connecting words (such as <em>like, as, so,</em> etc.). In this sentence, the sentence "<u><em>as</em></u><em> one would cap a quiver</em>" is comparing how easy it would be for a person to cap a quiver with how easy it was for the Cyclops to move the stone. It is a way to express his enormous strength without mentioning it explicitly.

2. Identify the type of irony found in act IV scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet when Paris meets Juliet at friar Lawrences cell and sa
alisha [4.7K]

2. verbal irony

Verbal irony is when a person says something but means the opposite. In this scene Juliet says "I love him" but she is not referring to Paris. She's answering Paris' question about confessing her love for Paris to Friar Laurence. However, she actually is saying that she loves Friar Laurence to get out of lying about her love for Paris. It's not a romantic love of course since she's married to Romeo, whom she also loves.

3. False

Shakespeare uses comedy in many of his plays. The nurse and Mercutio both offer some comedic relief in this Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet.

4. C. Personification

Personification is giving non human things human-like traits. In this scene, Juliet says, "the tears have got small Victory". This personifies the tears as having the human trait of being victorious.

5. A. Simile

A simile is a comparison between two things using like or as. In this line, Juliet's appearance after taking the potion is compared to death.

6. B. He is in exile in Mantua.

Romeo has left for Mantua during Act IV. Juliet's desperate actions during the Act are because of her father's insistence that she marry Paris immediately.

7. A. Failure

Sullen has a negative connotation. The only answer choice with a negative connotation is failure.

8. A funeral song

A dirge is a funeral song, or at least one that is extremely sad.

In which sentence does the underlined pronoun correctly complete the elliptical clause?
laila [671]
The first choice, "<span>I suspect that he would enjoy living with whales more than [he enjoys living with] us." is the correct one. Remember that elliptical clauses are sentences that are missing part of the clause and needs to be completed with a correct pronoun. In this case, the correct pronoun is "us". 

Let me know if you need anything else :)
