Match each literary device with the reason authors use it. imagery symbolism alliteration oxymoron makes readers pause and think about the contradiction created with two opposing words arrowRight represents an abstract idea with a concrete object arrowRight calls attention to certain words and creates a rhythm with words arrow Right creates a clear picture in the reader’s mind arrow Right
Answer:
Imagery- creates a clear picture in the reader’s mind.
Symbolism- represents an abstract idea with a concrete object.
Alliteration- calls attention to certain words and creates a rhythm with words.
Oxymoron- makes readers pause and think about the contradiction created with two opposing words.
Explanation:
There are numerous literary devices that writers use in their works. Such literary devices or techniques allows them to perfectly present their ideas and proposed effects to the readers.
Imagery is the use of descriptive words to help readers paint a picture in their heads about what is talked about. This also allows the presentation of ideas in such a way that the readers can identify and even imagine the scenes of the story, giving it a perfect way of expression to the writer's words.
eg, He wore a white crisp shirt and bright red trousers.
Symbolism is the use of certain symbols to signify or represent ideas, themes, and purposes. It uses certain objects or even words to represent or stand for an abstract idea that the writer wants to convey rather than directly state it. It makes reading more interesting and fun.
eg, A dove is a symbol of peace.
Alliteration is the use of the same letters of a given word in quick succession or close quarters. This creates a form of rhythm to the words used, making certain words or phrases stand out and also provide a bit of musicality to the words/ work.
eg, The baby blue basket and bib make for a great combination of colors for the whole dreary scene.
An oxymoron is when two contrasting words are placed together in a given sentence. This rhetorical device is self-contradictory but provides a great impact or effect in the sentence.
eg, When we went to meet him, we never expect him to be seriously funny.

George Washington, the first President of the United States, is often refereed to as the Founding Father of Our Country. He was born at "Wakefield," near Popes Creek, Westmoreland County, VA, on February 22, 1732. During his lifetime, Washington became known for his love of the land and farming, and many argue that he was perhaps the one indispensable man among the founders. It is hard to imagine any of the others commanding the respect needed to lead the Continental Army to victory over Great Britain, preside over the Constitutional Convention, and serve the United States as its first president. While still in his teens, Washington became a land surveyor, which gave him a solid grounding in mathematics and the evaluation of topography. This would later serve him well as a military commander. As a lieutenant colonel of the Virginia militia, Washington led a force into the Ohio Valley to contest French domination of that region. He was in command of the British forces at the Battle of Fort Necessity in the summer of 1754, the war that ended with the removal of French power from North America and set the stage for the American Revolution. Washington gained valuable military experience in that conflict. Inheriting Mt. Vernon, a family planation on the Potomac River, in 1761, Washington spent the next 15 years as a planter, also serving in the House of Burgesses the (the colonial legislature in Virginia). He took the patriot side in the disputes with Great Britain in the 1760s and 1770s, and he was elected to the first Continental Congress in 1774. With the coming of open war with Britain in 1775, the congress decided to make Washington commander in chief of the new Continental Army. Washington had as much military experience as anyone in the colonies, and his selection helped gain the allegiance of Virginia, by far the most populous of the 13 colonies. After accepting the British surrender at Yorktown in October 1781, Washington retired to Mt. Vernon to revive his plantation and financial position. His political career continued when he was elected to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and reluctantly served as its presiding officer. Washington's support of the Constitution was critical in its acceptance by the states. He was a virtually unanimous choice for the nation's first president. Washington served two terms and could easily have gained a third had he wished to do so. Instead, he established the precedent of a two-term maximum. In the last years of his life, he was appointed as lieutenant general and commander of the United States Army again on July 3, 1798, and he served until his death on December 14, 1799. 4 Select the correct answer. What is the author's purpose in "George Washington"? A. to convince readers that George Washington played a significant role in the win against Great Britain B. to inform readers about George Washington's legacy as the first president of the United States C. to entertain readers with details about George Washington's personal life as a teenager and adult D. to teach readers about the qualities of good leadership based on examples set by George Washington

"Gentlemen," said Reverend Buckminster slowly, "there clearly are real dangers I had not anticipated." He looked at Turner, and Turner saw in his eyes—distrust. "Perhaps the Lord is leading you in your efforts. And if so, then what else could the minister of First Congregational say but that he is with you in this?"
"That, Reverend, is what we came to ask," said Mr. Stonecrop. "And it will not be long before Phippsburg is free from this sordidness, and we can start to rebuild ourselves. Someday soon, the settlement on Malaga Island will be no more.

Explanation:
Authors use various narrative techniques to manipulate time in a work of fiction. Cite examples of how the narrator Influences Ume and pacing
within the story. What effect does the pacing have on how the reader Interprets the story?
games at twilight
Answer:
The pace of the story changes every time the mood of the children changes.
Explanation:
The pace of the story changes every time the mood of the children changes. A perfect example of this is at the beginning of the story. The first paragraphs are slightly lengthy and greatly detailed to show the mood of the current situation. Since all the kids are stuck indoor on a blistering hot day, the mood is dragged and allows the reader to understand the children's situation.
However, once mother permits the children to exit, the mood changes to a more exciting and thrilling tone. This is also when the story’s pace changes. Read the following line:
“The children, too, felt released. They too began tumbling, shoving, pushing against each other, frantic to start.”
This line allows the reader to relate to the characters and understand their emotions. Clearly, we read that the children are moving so fast they begin tumbling one another frantically.
Another good clue that represents a change in pace is when the kids share this interaction:
“Let’s play hide-and-seek.”
“Who’ll be It?”
“You be It.”
“Why should I? You be——”
“You’re the eldest——”
“That doesn’t mean——”
Here, it’s almost as if the children are moving at such a fast pace, they begin to speak over one another. It’s written in such a way that the reader almost feels like they’re a part of the story, experiencing the chaotic bickering between the children.
Answer:
The pacing of the story changes with the changing moods of the children. The story opens with the sense of oppression a group of children feel when they are forcibly kept inside the house. The pace is slow at this point. The pace changes when the children rush outside to play. It increases as the game of hide and seek closely replicates a hunting game. Raghu is like a wild animal hunting his prey.
When Ravi is hiding, the narrator doesn’t reveal exactly how much time has passed: “for minutes, hours, his legs began to tremble with the effort, the inaction.” As the suspense builds, the reader is eager to know the outcome. The pace builds and climaxes when the narrator describes Ravi’s plans for winning the game. The narrator gives us a glimpse of the myriad of thoughts streaming across his mind.
The pace comes to a grinding halt when Ravi realizes that no one cared where he was hiding, and he is not the winner of the game. The reader, who experienced the rush of the game as well as the sudden jolt of defeat, can sympathize with Ravi’s disappointment.

Which sentence in this excerpt from Mark Twain’s short story “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County” is an example of direct characterization? I found Simon Wheeler dozing comfortably by the barroom stove of the old, dilapidated tavern in the ancient mining camp of Angel's, and I noticed that he was fat and bald-headed, and had an expression of winning gentleness and simplicity upon his tranquil countenance. He roused up and gave me good-day. I told him a friend of mine had commissioned me to make some inquiries about a cherished companion of his boyhood named Leonidas W. Smiley — Rev. Leonidas W. Smiley — a young minister of the Gospel, who he had heard was at one time a resident of Angel's Camp. I added, that, if Mr. Wheeler, could tell me anything about this Rev. Leonidas W. Smiley, I would feel under many obligations to him. Simon Wheeler backed me into a corner and blockaded me there with his chair, and then sat me down and reeled off the monotonous narrative which follows this paragraph.
Answer:
"I found Simon Wheeler dozing comfortably by the barroom stove of the old, dilapidated tavern in the ancient mining camp of Angel's, and I noticed that he was fat and bald-headed, and had an expression of winning gentleness and simplicity upon his tranquil countenance."

To improve the relationship between ideas, the writer
should revise sentence 2 by
Read the passage from an argumentative essay.
(1) Bernie Sanders has argued that no one should have
to pay tuition to go to college. (2) This will only increase
the tax burden on the middle classes
o explaining the concept of a tax burden.
O adding "however" to the beginning of the sentence.
o placing "therefore" at the beginning of the sentence.
o connecting it to the preceding sentence with "and."
Answer: Well, To improve the relationship between the ideas expounded by Bernie Sanders, the writer must: option B, add "However" to the beginning of sentence 2, in this case, the paragraph would be as follows: Bernie Sanders argues that no one should have to pay the tuition to go to university. However, this will only increase the tax burden on the middle classes.In this order of ideas, it is inferred from the text that the author considers that nobody should pay tuition to go to university, but he knows that if this is approved, the tax burden on the middle classes would be increased. Most people know that the tax burden is the taxes that the government charges especially to the middle and upper classes to settle or balance the investments that the government itself makes in favour of the people such as the subsidy for study or housing.

Transition words act as the bridge which helps in the smooth shift of one idea to the other.
This promotes better relativity among the ideas and as a result, effective comprehension.
In the given two sentences, the use of "however" would adequately connect the ideas by giving them a contrasting effect that the two sentences offer opposite or contrasting ideas.

The most logical revision for Karishma to make to her prediction is that the narrator gives up his plan to murder the old man. comes back another night to murder the old man. continues with his plan to murder the old man. eventually admits his presence to the old man.
Read the first passage from "The Tell-Tale Heart” that Karishma read.
I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?"
After reading the passage, Karishma predicted that the narrator would get caught by the old man.
Now read the second passage that Karishma read.
I kept quite still and said nothing. For a whole hour I did not move a muscle, and in the meantime I did not hear him lie down. He was still sitting up in the bed listening;—just as I have done, night after night, hearkening to the death watches in the wall.
The most logical revision for Karishma to make to her prediction is that the narrator
A. gives up his plan to murder the old man.
B. comes back another night to murder the old man.
C. continues with his plan to murder the old man.
D. eventually admits his presence to the old man.
Answer:
C. continues with his plan to murder the old man.
Explanation:
According to the first excerpt, it was logical that based on the clues and events available, Kashima would assume that the narrator was going to be caught by the old man because the old man sighted him entering his room.
However, from the second excerpt which shows that although the old man woke up, the narrator did not make any noise to betray his presence, he did not leave the scene, neither did he change his mind and Kashima can conclude that the narrator will continue with his plan to murder the old man.
Answer: C
