Answer:
The effect of repetition on these lines is to intensify the meaning of the sentence.
Explanation:
Repetition is a picture of language that is closely related to the syntactic construction of the text. For this reason, it is called a syntax picture. This language picture occurs by repeating terms at the beginning of sentences. It is a stylistic resource widely used by writers in the construction of verses in order to intensify an expression described in the sentence. An example of this can be seen in the excerpt shown in the question, where the lines "Some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door - Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;" intensify meaning, making the reader feel stronger during reading.
Oxymoron is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction
Appositive another term for apposition always
Parallelism the state of being parallel of a corresponding in some way
The correct answer is B. <span>a lake, to suggest deeper meaning. The mirror as such is a metaphor of feminine frailty and insecurity; however, when it turns into a lake, it transcends that meaning and evolves into a metaphor of aging, time and change. It doesn't turn into a woman; it just shows the woman's transformation from a young girl into an old woman.</span>
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Complete the sentence with an appropriate intensive pronouns.
Diana found the story difficult to believe______________.
A. she
B. itself
C. herself
Answer:
Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.
Explanation:
<u>Intensive pronouns are used to emphasize the nouns they refer to.</u> We need to be careful because intensive pronouns and reflexive pronouns are actually the same - myself, yourself, himself, etc. It is the use in context that differs.
In the sentence we are supposed to complete, we need to choose the appropriate intensive pronoun among the options. <u>Since "she" is a subject pronoun, we can already eliminate it. If we use "itself", we will be emphasizing "story". However, the person who has difficulty believing the story is Diana. She is the one who should be emphasized. Therefore, we can eliminate "itself" and safely choose "herself".</u>
