Hello. Did you forget to show that the underlined words to which the question refers are: cruel favor

In addition, you forgot to show the answer options. The options are:

The underlined figure of speech is ________ (choices: a euphemism, a simile, a metaphor, an oxymoron)

The reader can infer that ________ (choices: the narrator plans to take up baking with Lisette, the narrator feels that Lisette should do her more favors, the narrator will pretend to enjoy Lisette's brownies, the narrator suspects that Lisette is dishonest with her)

Answer:

1. euphemism

2. the narrator will pretend to enjoy Lisette's brownies

Explanation:

Euphenism is the figure of speech that has a lighter and more pleasant term, softening a bad meaning of another term that could be used. In this case, when the narrator says that Lisette took the Brownies as a "cruel favor" he wanted to soften the meaning that eating her brownies would be a bad experience.

Furthermore, by using eupenism, the author reinforces the idea that since Lisette is a very kind person, he will pretend to like the brownies, even if he doesn't like it.

PLZZZ need helppp!!!!What effect does the author's sensory description of the beautiful evening at the pier have on the story? W
myrzilka [38]

The sensory effect that the description causes is to make the reader feel and see the night on the pier as if he were present at the place. This has the function of extending the reader's understanding of the story, as he feels that he is part of the narrative.

<h3>What is sensory description?</h3>
  • A description that stimulates the five senses.
  • A description that makes use of imagery.
  • A description that uses many adjectives.

A sensory description is important to make the reader participate in the story. This is because, in addition to the mental images, the reader can feel the elements being described. This makes the reading more immersive, promotes greater reader participation, and makes the understanding of the story more comprehensive.
