What rhetorical device does Twain use by referencing this well-known proverb
Even though the proverb was not posted here, this question is still perfectly answerable.
Answer:
The rhetorical device Twain uses by referencing a well-known proverb is allusion.
Explanation:
Allusion is a figure of speech in which a reference is made to something or someone that has significance. The author does not explain much, since he/she assumes the audience knows who or what he/she refers to.
For instance, if someone says a woman is as beautiful as Helen of Troy, we would understand he/she means that woman is extremely beautiful. Helen of Troy is a famous character from the Iliad, by Homer, and she was the most beautiful woman in the world. The person making the allusion will not explain this fact, since it is well know.
Therefore, if Twain is referring to a well-known proverb, he is making an allusion to it.
Which of the following sentences is correct? *
1.Jesse Owens is one of the greatest athletes ever because he rose from humble roots and changed the world.
2.Jesse Owens is one of the greatest athletes ever, because he rose from humble roots and changed the world.
3.Jesse Owens is one of the greatest athletes ever, since he rose from humble roots and changed the world.
Answer:
1. Jesse Owens is one of the greatest athletes ever because he rose from humble roots and changed the world.
Explanation:
Among the options given in the question, the correct sentence is option 1. This is after checking the use of punctuation and other aspects of what makes a sentence correct.
In sentence 1, there is no use of the comma, whereas sentences 2 and 3 both contain commas after the word "ever", which is not necessary. The sentence is free-flowing and presents a simple fact about Jesse Owens. Moreover, it contains one independent clause and so the use of a comma is unnecessary.
Thus, the correct answer is option 1.

1. PART A: What does the phrase
"eternal sleep" most closely mean as it
is used in line 2?
Answer:
A. Death.
Explanation:
Gary Soto's poem "The Tempest 4.1.156-8" is a reference to William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest". But Soto used this play and gave it a slight twist, with the poem leaning towards the theme of death.
The use of the phrase "eternal sleep" in the second line of the poem is suggestive of death, the eternal sleep of a person. Soto, like Shakespeare, believes that we are not to be in this world forever. He states "We are such stuff... rounded with a sleep". Then he continues with the line "but before this eternal sleep", suggesting the scene where "our loved ones look away" to not see us die before their eyes.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Many literary scholars have argued that John is the clear villain of "The Yellow Wallpaper." Not only does he confine the narrator to the nursery for the "rest cure" treatment, he will not allow her to express her creativity or have any say in her life. However, at the same time, it is apparent that John loves his wife very much and truly wants her to be happy and healthy again. An argument can be made for either side. Choose a clear side and argue whether or not John is a clear villain in the story, Be sure to use and cite specific textual evidence.
ok, well I think he would be the villain bc, it doesn't matter how much you love someone, its how you show it. and if he cant let a grown woman make her own decisions, then he's not much of a hero, now is he?
