What type of Figurative language is this
“The truth is, that he tried to keep down his terror, for the specter’s voice disturbed the very marrow of his bones.”
and what does it mean ???
Answer:
This is a hyperbole, I believe.
Explanation:
Hyperbole provide a use of exaggeration to make a more impactful effect on it's readers. The quote itself means that the specter is unbelievably frightening to this person.

Without blood cells, you're body can't distribute oxygen, stating that this frightening creature was in complete control of him.

Answer:
1. Next summer I am going to buy a new house.
2. I am quite tired; I will go to bed now.
3. I believe Laura will like her brand new car.
4. Look at those guys! They are going to rob the bank.
5. I promise, I won't do it again.
6. I think she will crash my dad's car.
7. I talked to John yesterday; we are going to visit you tomorrow.
8. I am sorry dad; I won't drink and drive again.
9. Watch out! That man is going to punch you.
10. It is really hot in here; I will open the window.
Explanation:
We use the future simple with -will-, to talk about predictions, where we do not know if an event or action is going to happen since there is no evidence to confirm it. Another use of will is to make promises, like in sentence number 5 ( I promise, I won't do it again.) and lastly to talk about decisions made at the moment like in sentence number 2 or 10 where the person decided at that moment what to do.
We use going to talk about arrange plans for the future, like in sentence number 1 or 7 where there is a plan to buy a house in the future or to visit someone on an exact date. The other use of going to is to talk about an action or event that is going to happen in the future and that there is evidence to confirm it. Like in sentence number 4, where the people saw the thieves, or in number 9, where the other person was moving the arm to punch him, this is evidence that an event is going to happen.

What does Pauline mean when she refers to the purple-and-fine-linen class in
Paragraph 11?
Answer:
She meant a royal and wealthy class.
Explanation:
Materials made of purple and fine-linen were especially difficult to sew and were thus reserved for the royal families in ancient times. When Pauline was thinking about Joan she acknowledged that even though Joan's father did not make much as a countryside doctor, Joan dressed well enough and had an air that belonged to the purple-and-fine-linen class. This means that Joan had the disposition of a wealthy child.
Pauline could think of Joan in this light because she was a wealthy snob.
