English
1 answer:
monitta2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The two quotes that are examples of imagery are:

“I was besmeared with muck and mud, and the green slime that had collected on the surface of the dead water”

“My clothes were in tatters, my hands, face, and body covered with scratches”

Explanation:

<u>Imagery is a literary device that appeals to the five senses. Through imagery, authors can involve readers with their descriptions, having them feel as if they can see, touch, or smell something. Through word choice, authors can create vivid pictures to help readers visualize a scene, as if they were characters in the story.</u>

Among the options given, there are two that use imagery:

“My clothes were in tatters, my hands, face, and body covered with scratches” and

“I was besmeared with muck and mud, and the green slime that had collected on the surface of the dead water”

<u>The word choice in the quotes above help us visualize what the narrator looks like - how dirty and injured he looks, for instance.</u> The other two options, on the other hand, do not use words that convey any description that appeals to the five senses.

In 1872, Susan B. Anthony was arrested for voting in the Presidential election because it was illegal for a woman to vote.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

I think it is okay to break the law, but only if you, yourself truly believe that it is okay. When you believe in something so strongly and genuinely believe that what you are doing is right then it is right. Others may perceive your choice of judgment as wrong but in the end, I believe that it is you who decides if you are right or not. Susan B. Anthony's case is a great example of this, she truly believed that she deserved the right to vote, even though others frowned upon it, it may have seemed wrong at the time but to her, she knew that she was in the right. In the end, Susan B. Anthony became an inspiration to women by fighting for what she believed in and proving that maybe sometimes some laws are meant to be broken as time changes
