Answer: B) Metaphor
Explanation: A metaphor can be simply defined as a figure of speech that compares actions or words that are not literally related but might share similar characteristics. It gives a hidden meaning or representation.
"The road to the mountains was a ribbon of moonlight",
The "road" and the "ribbons of moonlight" are literally unrelated because roads are neither ribbons nor ribbons of moonlight.
"Ribbons of moonlight" is only meant to give a hidden meaning or representation of the characteristic or nature of the road to the mountains.
So "Ribbons of moonlight" is a metaphor.
The author's attitude is the tone. This sets up mood, which is the reader's feelings toward the text. I often teach these together because they can be so confusing. Syntax is just the arrangement of words, which is often seen in poetry as this is where it is most effective. Diction is simply the choice of words, which is part of tone but not the full definition of tone. C is the correct answer.
The correct answer is A. A few well-selected words.
Explanation
In the image two objects are shown, the first is an American Suffrage Banner that says "We demand an amendment to the United States Constitution enfranchising women"; the second item is a British Suffragette penny with "Votes for Women" written on it. These two objects stand out for their small size and their reach to all sectors of society, which is why they were selected to convey this message. However, this message would not be effectively shared if the correct words were not chosen, so the advertiser chose a few correct and effective words to deliver the desired message to require rights for women. So the correct answer is A. A few well-selected words.
D. Theme. Every piece of music, literature, stories, arts and other forms of artistic have a theme
Answer:
In both excerpts, Brutus is concealing a significant secret from a person he loves.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of Julius Ceasar" revolves around the murder of Julius Caesar. It also delves into the theme of honesty, loyalty and friendship infused with the want of power among the characters.
Both excerpts are from Act II scene i of the play where Cassius and Brutus had conspired to murder Caesar for the sake of the safety of Rome. The first excerpt is Brutus' dilemma in doubting Cassius while at the same time trying not to show it. The second excerpt is from his conversation with his wife Portia who is trying to help lighten his burden by asking if he has any worries. In both scenes, Brutus is reluctant to tell or confide in the other person about his internal feelings though he admits that both Cassius and his wife are the people he loves the most. He also did not try t inform Caesar f the murder conspiracy even though he loves him.
