Answer:

D. simile

Explanation:

The literary device used in this quote from Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is simile.

From the quote, there is comparison of "the agents that have power to shake and pluck" with "a wind that tosses curtains of a pavilion". The comparison is carried out with the use of "as".

Simile is a figure of speech used in the comparison of two things with use of "like" and "as". It makes the comparison more emphatic and vivid. Simile is different from metaphor because it uses <em>as</em> and <em>like</em>  in comparing things whereas metaphor doesn't use <em>as</em> and <em>like </em>to compare things.

THIS SECTION TESTS YOUR ABILITTY TO IDENTIFY THE APPROPRIATE ORDER OF A PARAGRAPH.
alukav5142 [94]

The best option among the answer choices to put the sentences in the correct order and form the paragraph is 3,2,4,1, as stated in option B.

<h3>What is the appropriated order?</h3>

After analyzing the sentences, we can see the following:

  • Sentence 4 complements sentence 2. That means the two of them should appear together in our answer choice.
  • Since sentence 2 begins with "or", it should come after another sentence that suggests something different. In that case, the best option is sentence 3.
  • Sentence 1 can appear at the beginning or the ending of the paragraph, as long as the order of the other sentences makes sense.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the best answer choice is option B, 3,2,4,1.
