"He was finally free, like a feather in the breeze." What rhetorical device is being used in this sentence?
O A. Simile
B. Personification
C. Consonance
D. Metaphor

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A. Simile


Explanation: To better understand which option is correct, let’s define each rhetorical device.

A simile is a comparison of two things, with the use of “like” or “as.” An example of this could be “she was as quiet as a mouse.” This is a simile because it compares a girl with a mouse, using “as.”

Personification is when a nonhuman object is given human qualities. An example of personification would be “I heard the wind sing.” This is personification, since wind is said to be singing when this is a human quality.

Consonance is a literary device that shows repeating consonant sounds in words close together. This could be in the beginning, middle, or end of a word. An example of this would be “the sun shines shamelessly in summer.” Because of the repeating use of the letter s, this is an example of consonance.

A metaphor is similar to a simile, except that there is no use of “like” or “as.” An example of a metaphor could be “my sister is an angel.” This is a metaphor; even though the sentence compares a girl to an angel, there is no use of “like” or “as.”

Using the information we have now read, we can determine that the sentence shows a simile, since it compares two things using “like.”

9. I went to the supermarket, but I didn't buy milk.

10. My mother brought the chicken; My uncle brought the dessert.

Explanation:

A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb. An independent clause can stand on its own. In other words, it makes sense when we read it, and we do not need extra information to comprehend the clause's meaning.

A sentence can have one independent clause or more than one. In the cases where a sentence has more than one independent clause, we can connect them with commas and the FANBOYS or semicolons.

FANBOYS stand for: for (F), and (A), but (B), or (O), yet (Y), so (S). Sentences 1, 2,3,6, and 8 have a FANBOY, so we need to write a comma before them.

On the other hand, sentences number 4 and 7 connect the two independent clauses with a semicolon (;), Sentence 4 is not contrasting or adding two things as the FANBOYS do, but sentence number 7 has the word "however." We use "however" to contrast or compare the clauses. When we use it, we have to write a semicolon or a colon before it and a comma afterward.

Lastly, we have sentence 5, where we added a period to punctuate the second independent clause; however, we could have used a semicolon to show the connection between the two clauses.

In sentence number 9, we link the two independent clauses with the comma and FANBOY but. The two independent clauses are: I went to the supermarket. I didn't buy milk.

In sentence number 10, the two independent clauses are: My mother brought the chicken. My uncle brought the dessert.

We can see that clauses in sentences 9 and 10 have a subject and a verb, and they stand on their own.

Read the passage from chapter 7 of Animal Farm.

If she [Clover] could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major's speech. Instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes.

This question is missing the passages. I was able to find them online. They can be found in the attached document.

Answer:

The literary elements the authors use to support the central idea of women autonomy is:

B. Ibsen uses dialogue to build conflict between characters, while Woolf alludes to historical figures to make her point.

Explanation:

Henrik Ibsen was a Norwegian playwright who lived from 1828 to 1906. He is considered the father of the Modern Theater. His play "A Doll's House" caused a stir when it was first performed in 1879.

The passage from the play "A Doll's House" uses dialogue to show that Nora, the main character, is finally becoming an autonomous, free woman. She has lived for years with a sexist, patronizing husband. Now, she is choosing to leave him and to not care about how society will condemn her.

Virginia Woolf was a British author who lived from 1882 to 1941. In "A Room of One's Own," she discusses how literature has been dominated by men throughout the ages and how women need their space, be it physical or psychological.

In the passage, Woolf alludes to different authors. She discusses how women had to hide behind male names in order to publish, and how that was never enough.

Activity 11: Making Inferences

Directions: As explained earlier in this chapter, an inference is something a reader learns from a text through information that was never directly given, stated, or explained by the author. Review the information about inferences and the story if necessary, and then answer the question below.

Incorrect Answer1.
Remember that an inference is information given in a story that is not directly stated by the author, but it is still very important in order to understand a story. Place a checkmark next to each inference the reader needed to make in order to understand "The Cask of Amontillado":

Montresor and Fortunato are wearing costumes because it is carnival time.

One reason Montresor is wearing a costume is to be sure no one recognizes him when he is walking back to his house with Fortunato.

Fortunato was a competitive person because he got jealous when he thought Luchesi was going to taste the Amontillado.

Montresor leads Fortunato down into the catacombs where many people were buried.

Montresor and Fortunato were down in the catacombs until midnight.

Montresor was upset because Fortunato had seriously offended him and wanted revenge.

No one ever found Fortunato, who Montresor buried alive down in the catacombs.

Montresor kept giving Fortunato wine because he knew he could not resist it and wanted Fortunato to keep following him.

2. Montresor was upset because Fortunato had seriously offended him and wanted revenge.

3. No one ever found Fortunato, who Montresor buried alive down in the catacombs.  

4. Montresor kept giving Fortunato wine because he knew he could not resist it and wanted Fortunato to keep following him.  

Explanation:  

One makes an inference when they use what they know to guess about what they do not know or read in a text.  It is from suggestive clues in a text or in a situation that someone can make inferences.  To figure out a meaning from some actions or situations, the reader infuses his or her personal experiences.  Combining such clues and experiences helps him to form an opinion or make a conclusion.  

"The Cask of Amontillado" is an 1846 short story by Edgar Allan Poe.  It narrates the intrigue with which Montresor beguiled Fortunato in order to murder him in revenge for supposed offences against Montresor.
