What literary device is used in “The silence fell on the room again. It came out of the night and invaded the room.” Please Answer ASAP

Answer:

The literary device used in this sentence is Personification.

Explanation:

It is because personification means to give a non living thing or word an adjective which is only used on human beings. Silence is not a living thing so it cannot invade the room nor can it come out of the night. So in my opinion the answer to this question is Personification.

Question 19 (Fill-In-The-Blank Worth 6 points) (HC) THE VOYAGES OF DOCTOR DOLITTLE By Hugh Lofting Chapter 1: The Cobbler's Son My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other. Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor. For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight. Part A: Which of the following best summarizes a key element of Tommy's character in the excerpt "The Cobbler's Son"? Enter your selection in blank 1 using A, B, C, or D. Tommy has a detailed knowledge of his home town. Tommy is an imaginative boy who yearns for adventure. Tommy knows more about ships than most boys his age. Tommy spends much time at the river's edge watching ships. Part B: Select one quotation that clarifies your choice in Part A. Enter your selection in blank 2 using E, F, or G. My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old.

Read the excerpt from "The Role of Social Media in the Arab Uprisings" by Heather Brown, Emily Guskin, and Amy Mitchell. Social media indeed played a part in the Arab uprisings. Networks formed online were crucial in organizing a core group of activists, specifically in Egypt. Civil society leaders in Arab countries emphasized the role of "the internet, mobile phones, and social media" in the protests. Additionally, digital media has been used by Arabs to exercise freedom of speech and as a space for civic engagement. Now, research is emerging that reexamines in a more detailed way the role that social media played in the Arab uprisings. In July 2012 a report was published by the United States Institute of Peace based on an extensive content analysis of bit .ly links from the uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and Bahrain. Bit .ly links, or short URLs, are predominantly used in social media such as Twitter. The authors came to some conclusions that countered the initial assumption that social media was a causal mechanism in the uprisings. Which statement best evaluates the effectiveness of the evidence in the text? The argument is convincing because the authors use varied forms of relevant evidence, including well-researched studies and verifiable data. The argument is convincing because the authors use varied forms of relevant evidence, including eyewitness accounts and personal anecdotes. The argument is not convincing because the authors support their points only with their own opinions, which is not sufficient evidence to support the claim. The argument is not convincing because the authors focus only on facts and data related to bit .ly links and Twitter usage, which is not sufficient evidence to support the claim.

Herd about the Flu

It's winter and the flu is raging. It's in your school, you know people who have caught it, and you are washing your hands for the fifth time. Missing school because of flu might not sound so bad, but the flu is one of the worst viruses you can have. The chills, the fever, the severe aches in your legs and arms . . . It's not something you want. Your mom drives you to the drugstore and you see a sign: No Flu Shots Available.

Wait a minute—there is a bad flu this season. You need the shot.

Where is the shot, and why can't you get it?

There are several answers to these questions. First, it just may not be ready. Flu viruses change all of the time, so new flu vaccines must be produced every year, and they take months to develop in research labs.

Read the passage and study the image and caption from Sugar Changed the World.

The interior of a cotton mill factory in Manchester, England, in the 1800's. Women and girls are operating the machinery.

Caption: The first factories were places like this cotton mill in Manchester, England.

All over England, in sooty cities such as Manchester and Liverpool, when the factory whistle blew, workers would set down their presses and file out to drink a quick cup of tea sweetened with sugar—usually dipping a piece of bread in the warm drink. Soon a smart manufacturer figured out that this break, and the need for a jolt of sweetness, was an opportunity. English workers were offered sugary cookies and candies—what we call today energy bars—that quick pick-me-up that helped workers to make it through their long shifts.

Starting around 1800, sugar became the staple food that allowed the English factories—the most advanced economies in the world—to run. Sugar supplied the energy, the hint of nutrition, the sweet taste to go with the warmth of tea that even the poorest factory worker could look forward to. Sugar was a necessity.

How does the image support the text?

The image shows the process for manufacturing cotton in early factories.
The image shows English factory workers enjoying sugar during their break.
The image shows that factory work in the 1800s was labor intensive.
The image shows how sugar was produced in cotton factories.

Read the poem below and answer the question.

The Journey

by Mary Oliver

One day you finally knew

what you had to do, and began,

though the voices around you

kept shouting

their bad advice --

though the whole house

began to tremble

and you felt the old tug

at your ankles.

"Mend my life!"

each voice cried.

But you didn't stop.

You knew what you had to do,

though the wind pried

with its stiff fingers

at the very foundations,

though their melancholy

was terrible.

It was already late

enough, and a wild night,

and the road full of fallen

branches and stones.

But little by little,

as you left their voices behind,

the stars began to burn

through the sheets of clouds,

and there was a new voice

which you slowly

recognized as your own,

that kept you company

as you strode deeper and deeper

into the world,

determined to do

the only thing you could do --

determined to save

the only life you could save.

Read this excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe. Then fill in the blanks in the paragraph that follows.
TRUE! -nervous - very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my
senses - not destroyed - not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in the heaven and in the earth. I
heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearkenl and observe how healthily - how calmly I can tell you the whole story.
It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion
there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his
eyel yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture -- a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so
by degrees - very gradually -I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever.
In these opening lines, the reader is presented with a narrator who wants to kill "the old man" because of his eye. The author uses the
