Answer:

A) Symbolism

Explanation:

Symbolism is a literary device in which objects have a meaning that is different from their original meaning or function. These objects become symbols from something else.

To salute the flag means to use a gesture to show respect and love for it. However, someone who salutes the flag doesn't salute the flag itself. A flag can be just an object, but here, it is a symbol for something else - for our country. It turns out that someone who is saluting the flag is actually saluting their own country, showing their love and respect for it.

Read the poem “The Purple Cow,” by Gelett Burgess. The Purple Cow (Reflections on a Mythic Beast Who's Quite Remarkable, at Leas
astraxan [27]
Well, I think, the main point that makes the difference between "Mending Wall" and   “The Purple Cow”  is actually demonstrated by the rhyme. Just read each poem one more time and feel that one of them is readed easily, words matched with each other like a song's lyrics so that you can smoothly go on reading whereas  "Mending Wall" is made with structure of blank verse that emphasises every line and makes reader feel it deeply.

Can someone give me a detailed summary of The Mystery of Three Quarters by Sophie Hannah?
artcher [175]

Answer:

Hercule Poirot returns home after an agreeable luncheon to find an angry woman waiting to berate him outside his front door. Her name is Sylvia Rule, and she demands to know why Poirot has accused her of the murder of Barnabas Pandy, a man she has neither heard of nor ever met.. She is furious to be so accused, and deeply shocked. Poirot is equally shocked, because he too has never heard of any Barnabas Pandy, and he certainly did not send the letter in question. He cannot convince Sylvia Rule of his innocence, however, and she marches away in a rage.Shaken, Poirot goes inside, only to find that he has a visitor waiting for him a man called John McCrodden who also claims also to have received a letter from Poirot that morning, accusing him of the murder of Barnabas Pandy.
