Hester voices her discomfort on the long walk to the scaffold. A military procession organizes the crowd and proceeds to the scaffold.
The figurative language used is a metaphor. A flashback refers to a previous event and there's no indication of Orwell referring to any previous events in this sentence. An oxymoron is when contradictory words are used in a conjunction such as faith unfaithful kept him falsely true. The word usage in this sentence isn't contradictory as it flows well in this sentence. A euphemism is a nice way to say a bothering statement. The sentence isn't any sort of bad claim, so the option of a euphemism is out of the question. A metaphor compares two things without using the words "like" or "as". In this sentence, Orwell compares advertising to the rattling of a stick inside of a swill-bucket. This makes metaphor the correct answer. Hope this helped :))
The correct answer is C. past tense.
Past tense is a grammatical tense used to describe an action or event that is done in the past. "Mixed" has a regular form "mix" and by adding "-ed" to it, it becomes a past tense.
The correct answer is B.
In this passage from Ayn Rand's "Anthem", the narrator is exploring an abandonen tunnel made from an unknown material.
The narrator describes the walls as "hard and smooth" and "cold as glass". This depiction leads us to believe that the interior of the tunel is made of man-made concrete.
The narrator states that the material feel like stone but it is not, therefore answer A is incorrect. The walls are also said to be soft, making C incorrect as well. And there is no mention of the walls being wet, for what answer D is not correct either.
