Answer:

B. A barely mobile hard roll

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly refers to one thing by mentioning another one. A metaphor is usually employed in order to provide clarity or to create a link between two ideas. In this case, a turtle is being compared to a "barely mobile hard roll." The comparison relies on the shape of a turtle's shell (roll), its resistance (hard) and the slow way a turtle moves (barely mobile).

In which excerpt from Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad is Tubman using ethos?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Ethos is a literary element used to establish some form of credibility, morals or ethics. It is used when trying to make someone believe in your character or a piece of information as proper. In this excerpt from Harriet Tubman's: Conductor on the Underground Railroad, "As they walked along she told them stories of her own first flight, she kept painting vivid word pictures of what it would be like to be free". The first sentence indicates the use of ethos by Tubman: "As they walked along she told them stories of her own first flight". And this is because she tries to tell them about the efforts she made to run away for them to trust her abilities.
