The basic literary devices for short stories,biographies etc... are Tone is the authors voice or style in a writing ;could be comical,compassionate;you can find this by noticing the setting, the time period,the characters and the narrators Point of View on the story. Theme is what the author is trying to say,why he wrote the story,the underlying meaning or lesson. Plot is simply the sequence of related events in the story. Conflict is the struggle or opposing force between the main character and something or someone else. Setting is the time and place the story takes place. Juxtaposition is a unique slang or way of speaking among a certain group; a dialect even. Imagery is using descriptive language to make the readers form a clear image or colorful image like they are there in the story watching in real life

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Fortunato's dress foreshadows his being a fool or buffoon.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado" is about Montresor's revenge on Fortunato, who had insulted him many times. The story deals with themes of revenge, friendship, appearance and reality, sin, etc.

In the given excerpt from the story, Montresor describes Fortunato's dress when he first met him that carnival night. He revealed that <em>"[Fortunato] wore motley . . . had on a tight-fitting parti-striped dress, and his head was surmounted by the conical cap and bells."</em> "Motley" refers to the multicolored suit worn by clowns, which seems to <u>foreshadow the character of Fortunato as a buffoon or a fool.</u>

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

What is the Prepositional phrase in You must not go until friday
Natalija [7]

The prepositional phrase for this sentence is "go until Friday." The word "go" is a preposition. Think of it as a squirrel and a log. To find a preposition, say "The squirrel (went) [insert preposition] the log." If it makes sense, it is a preposition. Then just find the phrase to go along with it!

Brain drain is not a bane for a developing country
Inga [223]

Answer:

I am debating against the motion.

Explanation:

Brain drain refers to the emigration of highly skilled and educated individuals from their countries of origin which are either underdeveloped or developing to developed countries. Developing countries like India which produce millions of graduates in a year and whose per capita income is quite low suffer negatively for this. Brain drain is a problem for developing countries for the following reasons:

1. It results in further weakening of the economy: Skilled workers are trained from the limited resources generated in weak economies. For there to be a balance, they are expected to give back to the economy. When this does not happen there is a further weakening of the economy which, in turn, makes it harder for the economy to progress.

2. Lack of access to qualified personnel who can positively impact the economy: Citizens of a country usually have their interest at heart. But when intelligent citizens who should contribute and provide solutions to the government and the economy leave the country, there are negative short and long term consequences. One short term effect is that access to good personnel (for example, health practitioners) is limited for the teeming population and this could result in deaths while in the long run, the country experiences stunted growth.

The few reasons stated above prove that truly, brain drain is a bane for developing nations.
