C. i remember reading this a few years back :)
I believe the answer is idiom, the phrase is not comparing anything so simile and metaphor is out of the question, also personification is giving a non living thing human characteristics.
Answer:
Minor details, the characters, and the setting help the reader determine the central idea of the text. Minor details are little things you notice that may not seem important, but could be <em>foreshadows. </em>The characters are the people in the book. Based off of their personalities, the reader will sometimes be able to determine the central idea. Last but not least, the setting. The setting is the environment the story is mostly in(e.g stormy night, sunset, foggy town).
i need the story or am i supposed to know just know the answer?
