Conveyances means vehicles or transports. The context clue to help you here is the appositive phrase that lists vehicles. 
Vanquish
 means to defeat or conquer. The context clue here is that the enemy forces "conquered his army instead". This tells us that the duke's goal was what the enemy actually accomplished.
Herpetologist means person who studies reptiles. The context clue here is "studying the reptiles". 

*You did not include what is in the drop down list so these might not be exact matches but they should be very close.

1. Read these lines from “The Darkling Thrush,” by Thomas Hardy.
netineya [11]

The correct answers are:

1. The correct answer is the option that reads “imagery, because the lines help the reader picture what Hardy describes”. In the lines presented above from the book “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900), Hardy made use of the literary device “<u>imagery</u>”. By definition, imagery means using figurative language to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that they appeal to our physical senses. Therefore, it helps the reader picture what the author describes. In this case, imagery helps the reader picture the description of the thrush that Hardy makes.

2. The correct answer is the option that reads “sight”. The line “<em>When frost was spectre-gray</em>” from “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900) is an example of <u>visual imagery</u> because it appeals to the sense of <u>sight</u> by <u>describing the colour of the frost</u> as “<em>spectre-gray</em>”.

3. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “is”. The dictionary is one book that <u>is</u> in most libraries.

4. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. I gave directions to the tourist who <u>was</u> lost.

5. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. The Statue of Liberty is one of the gifts that <u>was</u> given to us by the French.
