Answer:

Hungry.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Simile has to do with comparison of two things using as or like.

I am as hungry as a bear. This is an example of a figurative language (figures of speech) known as simile.

I could not find any sixpenny entrance and, fearing that the bazaar would be closed, I passed in quickly through a turnstile, ha
timama [110]

Answer:

D. encompassed

Explanation:

This is the excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby".

The word bazaar might also be confusing, so let's just say it's a kind of open market.

So, we have a boy who rushes into that market and finds him self in a hall around which is a gallery with lots of empty, closed stalls.

That can be enough to infer the meaning of the word "girded" which is "surrounded", "encompassed" or "encircled".

mote1985 [20]

In “The Daughters of the Late Colonel” the theme is captivity and is explored by the author through the relationship between the two captive sisters.

Explanation:

In Katherine Mansfield's short story “The Daughters of the Late Colonel”, the theme is the exploration of captivity and how it affects the primary characters of the story.

Josephine and Constantia have been imprisoned in a world where they have essentially two goals in their lives one is to avoid displeasing their cranky old father and the other is to keep away from him as far as necessary to.

This is the part where the relationship between the two sisters is explored in their silent and morbid captivity within the household.
