I would definitely have to think my grandmother. She has health issues, and that reminded me not to go out a lot. She also has told me even though everyone is going crazy, that in the end everything will be ok.
It's metaphor, since "Her early leaf's a flower" saying one thing is another without using the word 'like'. A simile does a similar thing, but it does use the word 'like'. An onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like a sound, and personification is giving a nonhuman thing human attributes.
The answer for this question is A.) "Carter is young and unaware..."
b. <em>he describes the event unemotionally to avoid bias and sentiment</em>. This is the correct answer.
Frederick Douglass, a former slave, wrote this memoir in 1845. The event he describes is related to the moment he left a plantation- Colonel Lloyd's - and the fact he was being carried to Baltimore by sail. There is not any emotional language in this description. As this narrative was considered a treatise against abolition, the writer must have avoided any sentimental language.
These options are not right:
a. he describes the event chronologically to make the account factual. ( The event is described but chronology is not stated).
c. he uses words such as remember to set a sad, nostalgic tone. ( The word remember is mentioned because it is a memoir. The words does not necessarily indicate any nostalgic tone).
d. he uses nautical terms, such as aft, to establish his credibility. ( The writer's credibility will not be reflected by his use of this specific vocabulary).
