The correct answer is the first one: "The memorial designed by Henry Bacon is the Lincoln Memorial."

The second answer ("The memorial, designed by Henry Bacon, is the Lincoln Memorial.") cannot be possible because the commas cause that the information provided between them ("designed by Henry Bacon") becomes an apposition to the main subject of the sentence. An apposition adds extra information on the nucleus of the subject of the sentence, extra information that becomes irrelevant and thus, possible to drop it, leaving a reiterative, lack of meaning sentence behind: "The memorial [dropped apposition] is the Lincoln Memorial".

The third answer ("The memorial designed by Henry Bacon, is the Lincoln Memorial.") is also wrong because the comma before the main verb separates subject from predicate and, thus, the sentence is ungrammatical.

So, in conclusion, the correct answer is:  "The memorial designed by Henry Bacon is the Lincoln Memorial."

what best describes the literary device employed in this from excerpt from Ha Jin "the bane of the internet".
ValentinkaMS [17]

I would say, Simile because this compares the feeling of seeing the machine to being stabbed by a dozen awls. Similes use like or as to compare two different objects, so that is what leads me to believe this. It cannot be a symbol, because that does not represent anything. It cannot be personification because it does not take a nonliving object and give it human features. I would say that's it a metaphor, but it uses as, so I firmly believe that it is a simile..

Answer: the answer is not b

Explanation:

So I took the quiz and I chose B even though I was sure it was A, but someone on here said it was B. IT WAS NOT B. I should’ve listened to myself and picked A because it’s obviously A.
