Answer:
Hi luv! Traveling is different from what it was in the 1800s. Back then, we didn't have cars yet which would mean that people had to either A. Walk every where or B. Ride a horse/ horse and carriage. We now have cars which helps us travel from point a to point b in a shorter amount of time than what it would be back then. We also now have planes which can make us go from point a to point b in hours instead of having to travel months on boats. Have a nice day!

Answer:
D. simile.
Explanation:
In Marie Devers' "The Junior Detective", the speaker narrates how she came upon the profession of being a detective. And in her description, she mentions how she stumbled upon <em>"this vocation"</em>, that is, being a detective.
The figurative language that is used in these lines is a simile where the speaker becoming a detective is compared to the process of how detectives solve crimes,<em> "stumbling" </em>upon evidences and declaring a <em>"verdict"</em> at the end of the investigation. Similes are used to compare one thing with a completely different kind, which provides a more detailed image of the thing talked about. And in these lines, her description of how she became a detective is vividly described, allowing the readers to have a proper understanding of the process.
A. and incident that changed your life forever
