Answer:

The type of figurative language used in the passage is: imagery.

Explanation:

Imagery is a literary device that uses language to appeal to the five senses (sight, taste, touch, smell and hearing). By using imagery, authors involve readers and help them, in their imagination, to see, hear, touch, smell or taste what is being described. In the particular passage we are analyzing here, the author is using imagery when describing the shadow thrown by the bank. By using "a narrow shelf of shadow," the author has us imagining it in a vivid manner, as if we are the character seeing that shadow.

write a paragraph of 5 to 7 sentences explaining how fear or betrayal can transform a person. You can use examples from what you

Andru [333]

Fear or betrayal can greatly transform or change a person in many ways. If one has been betrayed in the past, chances are that any situation that makes them subject to that again they would avoid or be skeptical of. There are different types of how fear can affect people because of our fight or flight response. one type of person may decide to fear and flee any similar situations to what startled them initially. Another person might decide to get fight their way out if the situation and face their fears in the future. There's no doubt fear and betrayal changes people, but it depends on their personalities how exactly that change happens

Ne4ueva [31]

Examples of conjunctive adverbs: "also", "therefore", "however", "nevertheless", "meanwhile".

Unlike subordinating conjunctions, they do no mark the presence of a subordinate clause. Moreover, they are entirely optional, in that they can be generally omitted without affecting the whole sentence grammatically.

An example:

Some students like grammar. HOWEVER, others think it is boring.

Some students like grammar. Others think it is boring.

Unlike subordinating conjunctions, conjunctive adverbs are more mobile:

The experiment was disastrous. We nevertheless resolved to try harder.

The experiment was disastrous. We resolved to try harder, nevertheless.

Answer:

retrieval

Explanation:

Retrieval refers to the processes of getting information back from the memory system. In that respect, there exist cognitive processes which affect storage and retrieval of information. Since Mr Cochran mentions world leaders during the war and immediately asks Kathy about one of them, it demonstrates that, through the use of the sensory register, it is possible to remember something heard a few seconds ago, even without paying attention to it. Thus, attention is important because it moves data from the sensory register into the working memory.
