so like instead of taking a quote you paraphrase/ write it in your own words
The correct answers are:
1. The correct answer is the option that reads “imagery, because the lines help the reader picture what Hardy describes”. In the lines presented above from the book “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900), Hardy made use of the literary device “<u>imagery</u>”. By definition, imagery means using figurative language to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that they appeal to our physical senses. Therefore, it helps the reader picture what the author describes. In this case, imagery helps the reader picture the description of the thrush that Hardy makes.
2. The correct answer is the option that reads “sight”. The line “<em>When frost was spectre-gray</em>” from “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900) is an example of <u>visual imagery</u> because it appeals to the sense of <u>sight</u> by <u>describing the colour of the frost</u> as “<em>spectre-gray</em>”.
3. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “is”. The dictionary is one book that <u>is</u> in most libraries.
4. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. I gave directions to the tourist who <u>was</u> lost.
5. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. The Statue of Liberty is one of the gifts that <u>was</u> given to us by the French.
I inferred this likely to be the full question;

Things Fall Apart illustrates many different aspects of Igbo culture. For one, it shows us on may occasions they way they view religion. They are polytheistic, which means they worship many gods. Their gods and goddesses govern different aspects of the world and daily life, such as the earth goddess, Ani.
Different rituals and customs go along with each god. We can see this in the week of peace, which is observed to honor Ani so she will bless the crops. In addition, some of the gods have Oracles. These are basically their mouthpiece on earth. The Oracles will sometimes be possessed by their god, and the god will speak through them and tell the clan what they need to do.
The novel also explores non-religious aspects of Igbo culture. For example, we see and hear about the different ceremonies and rituals that surround courtship and marriage. Men almost always have more than one wife, an important cultural aspect. We also see how the clan conducts aspects of war, and some of how they keep and enforce law and order. Over the course of the novel we get to see a wide array of different aspects of Igbo life and culture. Not sure if this is at least two hundred words but hope it helps.
