Answer:

The type of figurative language used is:

A. kenning.

Explanation:

A kenning is a stylistic device typical of Norse and Anglo-Saxon poetry. This device uses metaphorical two-word phrases to describe something or someone, instead of simply using a single word. In the line we are analyzing here, the narrator says "Edgetho's brave son" instead of simply saying Beowulf. This is an example of kenning. As a matter of fact, the epic poem "Beowulf" has several instances of kenning, such as "shepherd of evil" for the monster Grendel.

In 1-2 paragraphs, describe how computer networks work.
Sever21 [200]
Computer networks are physical (equipment) and logical (program, protocol) structures that allow two or more
computers to share their information with each other.
Imagine a computer by itself, without being connected to any other computer: This machine will only have access to
your information (present on your HDD) or information that may come to it via floppy disks and CDs.
When a computer is connected to a computer network, it can have access to the information that comes to it and the
information present on other computers connected to it on the same network, which allows much more information to
be accessed through that computer..

<h3>What kind of diction did the author use in the text?</h3>

In this text, the author used a kind of diction that pointed to an informal tone. This is seen that the tone of the text was relaxed and not filled with academic vocabulary that will confuse a reader and make it difficult for them to understand what the author is saying.
