natima [27]

The device of figurative language that does the text in bold use is known as Allusion. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

<h3>What is meant by figurative language?</h3>

Figurative language may be defined as the sequence of words that significantly diverges from the conventional order and meaning in order to fetch a complex meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison in any literary work.

An Allusion is a type of figure of speech that deals with a component or incident from a different context that is indirectly mentioned in the passage.

The audience is anticipated to draw and feel an apparent connection with the author in order to sense the words more clearly. It is typically referred to as a reference when the author makes the relationship more apparent and conclusive.

Therefore, an allusion is a type of device of figurative language that does the text in bold use. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

Why is it even more cruel that Montresor threw his torch into the niche with Fortunato?
Alex777 [14]

Montresor lures Fortunato by telling him he has obtained a pipe of Amontillado sherry. He mentions obtaining confirmation of the pipe's contents by inviting a fellow wine aficionado, Luchesi, for a private tasting. Not one to be made better of, Fortunato goes with Montresor to the wine cellars of the latter's house, where they wander in the catacombs. Montresor keeps giving Fortunato drinks to keep him drunk, finally arriving at a niche, where Montresor tells his friend that the Amontillado is within. Fortunato enters drunk and unsuspecting, allowing Montresor to chain him to the wall.

Montresor then proceeds to wall up the niche, entombing his friend alive. Fortunato sobers up faster than anticipated, though, and pleads with Montresor. Montresor ignores him and continues, eventually walling him in completely.

Notably though, in the story, Fortunato actually comes to the realization that this is actually what Montresor wants. Montresor doesn't want to murder Fortunato as much as he wants the psychological satisfaction of seeing and hearing him squirm as it dawns on him that he is going to die a slow death and he was so easily tricked into walking into this situation, and mocking him for it. In a final act of defiance, Fortunato refuses to play along at the end, and replaces his panic with cold silence. This silence catches Montresor off-balance, and its evident from narration that he was very confused and annoyed at being robbed of the chance to gloat properly, and even begins to feel "sick at heart" about what he is doing, because the sudden silence gives him no recourse but to actually consider the gravity of the act he is about to carry out. And even those fifty years later, there are still clear hints of Montresor being somewhat bitter about the fact Fortunato managed to outwit him at the end by taking all the fun out of his revenge.

Hope this helps :)

Which sentence in this excerpt from a literary analysis essay is most likely the thesis statement
Dmitrij [34]

The given question is incomplete as the excerpt is not given. The excerpt should be given below:

'O. Henry's short story "The Gift of Magi" is about a couple who are deeply in love. Della and Jim are poor, but they each want to buy the other a special Christmas present. Because they have no money, they sell their own priced possessions to be able to afford presents for each other. O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love. Despite having no luxuries, Della and Jim are willing to make sacrifices for each other because their love is true.'

The sentence in this excerpt from a literary analysis essay which is most likely the thesis statement is 'O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love.'  A thesis statement is typically stated in a single sentence, however it might be repeated elsewhere.

  • O. Henry illustrates that true love is unaffected by poverty in his short story "The Gift of Magi" because it captures the essence of his point.
  • Della sells her hair so that she may afford a chain for Jim's pocket watch, while Jim sells his lovely pocket watch so that he can buy a brooch for Della's lovely long hair.
  • As a result, their tangible gifts are meaningless, but one has nonetheless shown the other that they are capable of sacrificing their most valued assets for one another, so demonstrating their love for one another.
  • The real gift they both receive from the Magi on that particular Christmas day is this realisation.

Therefore, the sentence in this excerpt from a literary analysis essay which is most likely the thesis statement is 'O. Henry uses his short story "The Gift of Magi" to show that poverty cannot affect true love.' An essay's, research paper's, etc. core idea or claim is succinctly summarised in the thesis statement.

Imagine you are a servant in Dr. Heidegger's house. What are your reactions to the people who drank the elixir? What do you thin
Aliun [14]

Answer:

If I were a servant at Dr. Heidegger's house, I would not at all approve with the people who drank the elixir hoping for all that it promised to have come true, for it is not possible. In fact I would be angry at them for having done so. People who left the house towards the end are utter cowards for giving up so easily when there still was a chance to fight for what they had so strongly believed in up to this point.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
