The figure of speech used in the phrase "babes of the sea" is (D) a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in a comparison. This comparison is made between two things that are not related but have a certain characteristic in common. In this case, "babes" is not used in its original meaning but the author refers to his feeling of insignificance when compared to the nature.

Answer:

metaphor

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of language in which one uses a word or an expression in a sense that is not very common, revealing a relation of similarity between two terms.  In this case, in the expression "babies of the sea" the word "babies" is not really referring to a baby, but the fragility before the world.

Read the paragraph. 1. In conclusion, of all the possible careers in film, the producer’s job is the one that’s really cool. 2.
posledela
<span>The mechanics and organization are good, but sentences 1 and 3 should be edited to achieve a formal style and objective tone. 

The sentences in the passage do not have errors in grammar or punctuation, so any of these options can be immediately removed. Ending the first sentence with the word "cool" and using "that's for sure" and "you" in the last sentence, give the passage a much more informal tone. These sentences should be revised for a more formal tone to have a stronger concluding paragraph.
