Match the figures of speech used in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poems to the lines that contain them.​

Answers

Answer:

The line "A damsel with a dulcimer" contains alliteration and it is used for the sounds of the letters a and d.

The author uses personification in the lines "The Sun came up upon the left, Out of the sea came he!" where he personifies the Sun in the form of a man.

The word below is repeated in the lines "Below the kirk, below the hill,"

"The Wedding-Guest stood still, And listens like a three years' child:" - We have used simile here because of the like.

"a sunny pleasure dome with caves of ice." It is antithesis, because we have sun and ice as opposing objects in this line.

Read the passage and then answer the questions

Victor was angry Somebody had stolen $500 in cash from him, and When he found who it was, he was going to make the thief pay. He looked around for suspects and saw all smiling at him. It had to be
him Victor threw himself at Gil, ready to punch his lights out

Which of the endings to the scene would be most ironic?

A. Victor wins the fight and takes back his $500. 'Don't do that
again,' he says,

B. The cash was in Victor's pocket the whole time, but he loves it
while he is fighting Gil

C. The friendship between Gil and Victor never recovers after their
terrible fight

D. In the ensuing fight, Gil unexpectedly pleas for mercy, Victor feels
awful

Answers

Answer:

B. The cash was in Victor's pocket the whole time, but he loves it  while he is fighting Gil.

Explanation:

Irony is a rhetorical device that refers to when things did not go as expected. In an ironic situation, what is expected and what happens is the exact opposite of each other.

In the given scenario, Victor's belief that Gil took his money led to the altercation. But basing his suspicions without any proof, Victor may have made a huge mistake. Moreover, one ending that will be the most ironic is if Victor found the money in his own pocket while he'd blamed and even fought with Gil.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

‘We are very miserable,’ said Darzee. ‘One of our babies fell out of the nest yesterday, and Nag ate him.’

‘H’m!’ said Rikki-tikki, ‘that is very sad – but I am a stranger here. Who is Nag?’

Darzee and his wife only cowered down in the nest without answering, for from the thick grass at the foot of the bush there came a low hiss – a horrid cold sound that made Rikki-Tikki jump back two clear feet. Then inch by inch out of the grass rose up the head and spread hood of Nag, the black cobra, and he was five feet long from tongue to tail.

—“Rikki-Tikki-Tavi,”
Rudyard Kipling

Select two answers

o the news that Nag ate the birds’ babies
o Rikki-tikki’s identifying himself as a stranger

what is the relation between power and freedom?

Answers

Answer:

The aim of this work is to offer an assessment of the conceptual relations between 'power' and 'freedom'. The two concepts are normally thought of as standing in a relation of mutual exclusion, and are often defined in reciprocal terms: while being free means not being subject to someone's power, to have power is to constrain someone's freedom. In this article I propose a more detailed interpretation of their conceptual relations, distinguishing between two different cases. In the case in which power and freedom are understood as properties of two different individuals involved in a social relation, I shall argue that they are not necessarily in a relation of mutual exclusion: power can be exercised in ways which do not reduce, and which might even increase, the power-subject's freedom. In the case, by contrast, in which they are understood as properties of the same individual, I shall claim that power and freedom show a significant degree of correspondence.

Explanation:

Power means to have control over something and/or someone or a group of people. Freedom also means to have control within a group of people or one person. Someone could have power within freedom, and freedom within power, it just depends on how they choose to exercise their control.
