The rhetorical device which best describes the example shown is; Choice C; Allusion.

<h3>Antithesis and Allusion as Rhetorical devices</h3>

Antithesis is used in literature in writing or speech either as a proposition that contrasts with or reverses some previously mentioned proposition, or when two opposites are introduced together for contrasting effect.

An allusion put simply, is when one hints at something and expect the other person to understand what we are referencing.

Hence, it follows particularly from the line; "You know Donna Weems as the Shakespeare of our school" that the rhetorical device is; Allusion.

In “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin, which adjective best describes Mrs. Mallard?
igor_vitrenko [27]

In “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin, adjective what best describes Mrs. Mallard is repressed.

Kate Chopin describe Mrs. Mallard as "Young, with a fair, calm face, whose lines bespoke repression and even a certain strength." The lines on the face of Mrs. Mallard is described to indicate that she keeps many things inside her repressed. Mrs. Mallard doesn't give her feelings a free reign. Also, suffering from medical conditions, she puts her life to threat. We learn that she due to her marriage sufferings and is not optimistic about her married life. We learn this when she wishes for her life to be short, a night before the death of her husband. as an option to marriage, she would welcome her death gladly.

When Josephine inform Mrs. Mallard about the death of her husband we tend to observe her first reaction where she weeps into her sister’s arm and was hard to take. <em>“She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister’s arms.”</em> In such grief she rushes off to her room to be alone, later it is observed that “But now there was a dull stare in her eyes, whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky. It was not a glance of reflection, but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought.” And the reader sees something coming to her and speaks softly “free, free, free!.” This situation can be dramatic as only the reader knows the real feeling of Mrs. Mallard. On the other hand, other characters are not aware of her real feelings. She celebrates it and by the end, she is dead with a heartbreak, wherein, her husband receives the news of Louise's death.
