Answer:

The figurative language means the arrows were quickly shot. It impacts the description of Odysseus because it shows he is a skilled warrior.

Explanation:

Notice how carefully the words were chosen to convey this image: "poured out" and "rain of arrows". Picture that - you must have seen something similar in movies -,  dozens of arrows falling from the sky like rain. For Odysseus to be able to do that, he would have to have great skills. He would have incredible aim as well as speed to cause the impression that arrows are raining down. This is what the author wants to achieve with the use of this figurative language. In a most eloquent and vivid manner, he conveys how skillful Odysseus is.

You should not use the authors' last names in the citation if the authors' names appear in your quote's signal phrase.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True or False -  You should not use the authors’ last names in the citation if the authors’ names appear in the text.

Answer: True

Explanation below:

Explanation:

When it comes to English Grammar, a signal phrase is a type of phrase sentence or clause that often introduces a quotation, paraphrase, or summary. This type of phrase contains a verb together with the name of the person that is being quoted.  

It alerts the reader that something taken from an entirely different source is about to be used.  

Below is an example:

Daniel testified that he was not in the house when his neighbor’s dog died (13).

The author’s name is included and the page number in parenthesis.

So when the author’s name does not appear in the text, you should not use the author’s last names in the citation.
