Match each example of figurative language with its meaning. stood like a pillar of cloud torn and faded banners of the departed summer ancient blood-stains against the dark-blue sky Meaning Figurative Language divine light arrowBoth reminders of earlier days arrowBoth crimson red arrowBoth

Answers

Explanation:

1. "stood like a pillar of cloud torn"

Figurative language: a Simile.

Meaning: A Simile is a figurative language that makes a comparison between two things of a different kind to make a vivid description using 'like' or 'as'. In this example, the author is comparing someone who stood to a 'pillar of cloud torn'. This compares how unadmiring a torn pillar of cloud is with the way the person stood.

2. "faded banners of the departed summer ancient blood-stains against the dark-blue sky"

Figurative language: a Metaphor

Meaning: a Metaphor is symbolic (non-literal) comparison of an object or action with another thing, action, or idea in other to explain an idea. Hence, the expression, "summer ancient blood-stains" refers to horrific events in the past that resulted in "dark-blue sky" (or grief).

Which detail from “Thomas Edison: The Master of Improvement” explains why Swan’s lightbulb failed to be successful?

“He developed and demonstrated the first small lightbulb in 1878.”
“Its glow was produced by electricity passing through a filament, or tiny piece of material.”
“The inside of the glass bulb was a vacuum. In other words, it was oxygen-free.”
“[The] bulb did not glow for long, however. It produced light for only thirteen hours.”

Answers

Answer:

the best answer will be is D “[The] bulb did not glow for long, however. It produced light for only thirteen hours.” Because, Swan's light bulb didn't last as long as Edison's and required more current to operate at the same power level as Edison's. Higher current meant you need thicker wire to power it. Good Luck! I hope this helps!!!
