The third option: noise, silence
The correct answer is option A. "the beginning". In literature, a falling action is defined as the events that happens right after the climax has ended. In the beginning of "The Black Cat" by Edgar Allan Poe the narrator addresses the audience to explain why he is gonna lose is life tomorrow, this implies that the story starts when the climax has ended and the narrator is gonna explained what happened.
Hello. You did not underline any clause in the sentence above, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
If the underlined clause is "tis going" it means that the speaker of the sentence is indicating that the clock is working.
If the underlined clause is "it strikes well and hearty" it means that the watch is working very well, vigorously and correctly. This is because the words used give the feeling of something that is healthy and that has vigor and disposition for any activity.
lol
Imagery is when a sentence has descriptive details that help you see what the author wrote.
Example: The frail girl crept through the dark, dusty hallway. Her bare feet blue from the cold, stone floors.
so i would say that the sentence you provided was using imagery :)
I would have to say D. CITATIONS ALLOWS READERS TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGATIONS OF PLAGIARISM. Plagiarism can be a big deal and you can get into a lot of trouble for it.
