Answer:

Alliteration.

Explanation:

Alliteration is a literary device that refers to the use of the same consonant word in consecutive words in a sentence. In other words, we can say that alliteration is when the same consonant sound in close proximity in a sentence.

In the given sentence from "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, the author/ speaker uses the figurative language of alliteration. Alliteration is seen/used in the words <em>"knocking my knuckles"</em> and<em> "fingers closed on the fingers . . ."</em>

Thus, the correct answer is alliteration.

Which lines in this excerpt from the poem "Dreams" by Edgar Allan Poe use enjambment?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: My spirit not awakening, till the beam

Of an Eternity should bring the morrow.

Twere better than the cold reality

Of waking life, to him whose heart must be,

Explanation: Enjambment, derived from the French word enjambment, meaning to step over, or put legs across. In poetry it means moving over from one line to another without a finishing punctuation mark. It can be defined as a thought or sense, phrase or clause, in a line of poetry that does not end at the line break, but goes over to the next line. In other words, it is the running on of a sense from one couplet or line to the following without a major interruption or syntactical break.

6. Turkle suggests people use technology to edit themselves to "present the self
mestny [16]

An Turkles argument speaks to the superiority of face to face conversations over technology-aided or enabled communication such as emails and texting.

Turkle indeed alludes to the advantages given by the use of technology such as email and texting services etc to modify our conversation/message to perfection.

In her opinion, this is at best superficial in the long run and does not replace the good old fashion face to face (albeit "imperfect") mode of communication which allows for deeper connections that technology can ever allow.

She notes in paragraph 11 that Human relationships are worth a bundle, complicated and challenging. She indicates that humans have acquired the habit of using technology to make these interactions seem "flawless". According to Turkle, this shifting behaviour towards a perfect representation of self has only reduced conversation to electronic connections and that this has devalued the worth of human interactions which whose real benefit is in connecting with one another.

According to her, online connections don't present a substitute for real conversations Explanation:

Hey there!

Let's say I was to quote a book by Cardinal Cardigan I've read for an essay. (This isn't an actual book, just an example). The book contains the following sentence:

The reason that flowers are so beautiful is that they come in a variety of colors and scents that are appealing to many people. 

In order to quote this, I would use the following formatting:

"The reason that flowers are so beautiful," states Cardigan, "is that they come in a variety of colors and scents that are appealing to many people."

Using this, your answer will be your first option. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
