Answer:
Jerome Rogers, a 12 year-old boy has been shot and killed. He sees everything happening around him as a ghost, floating outside of his body.
Explanation:
Tom Sawyer<span> convinces him to return to the Widow's house,he complains about having to wear new clothes and eat only when the dinner bell rings, something that he was not used to while growing up with his </span>Pap. Widow Douglas tried to force Huck to wear new clothes, give up smoking, and learn the Bible.While <span>Miss Watson tries to teach him spelling and lectures him on how to behave well so that he will be welcomed into heaven. </span>
The only figurative language it could be would be a pun.
<span>D. Pathos</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>Pathos is a literary device
that is used to garner emotions of pity, sorrow, anger, or other passionate
feelings to the point where readers/listeners/audience members are persuaded
into acting or thinking in a way the author/speaker wishes. Thus, it is a persuasive literary device. That said, let’s look at a few phrases
from the excerpt that employ pathos by manner of describing scenes of injustice
and cruelty:</span>
“He has plundered our seas…destroyed
the lives of our people.”
“…to complete the works of
death, desolation, and tyranny...”
“…scarcely paralleled in the
most barbarous ages…”
From these lines alone, it can
be seen how readers might be compelled to view the one being described in the
light the author does because the emotions that might be invoked by
descriptions provided.
