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

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.

At first, experts didn’t think that BSE could be passed along to humans through the consumption of beef (which is made of the cow’s fat and muscle tissue, not parts of the central nervous system). However, in 1995 they diagnosed a human with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, the human form of BSE.

‘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

Explanation:
Gordimer paints a picture of Johannesburg to support her point of view about apartheid. This allows the reader to experience her life in apartheid. In a short essay of at least two hundred words, discuss whether you think this technique is persuasive or if Gordimer should have directly stated her views on apartheid.
Answer:
In "1959:What Is Apartheid?", Gordimer paints a picture of Johannesburg, the city she lives in, to support her point of view about apartheid. She writes about her experience with being raised in a home with servants and the prejudice that her family, and basically the rest of the white people had against black people. “But no black man has his home in the white city; neither wealth nor honour or distinction of any kind could entitle him to move into a house in the street where I or any other white persons live. So it easily happens that thousands of white people live their whole lives without ever exchanging a word with a black man who is like themselves, on their own social and cultural level...Out of this experience all the platitudes of apartheid sound endlessly, like the bogus sea from the convolutions of a big shell: they're like children . .. they don't think the way we do . .. they're not ready ..”. Gordimer explains how the white people viewed and thought about black people. She is persuasive in the way she describes how segregation had treated black people more drastically. I think she did stated opinion clearly, Gordimer is against apartheid and thinks it was terrible and dehumanizing how the “servants” were treated.
The technique used by Gordimer is persuasive because, in Gordimer’s essay, she explains that people of color take the jobs that no white man wants and that they are not allowed in any bar, club, etc.
What is apartheid?
Apartheid was a system of enforced racial segregation that lasted from 1948 until the early 1990s in South Africa and South West Africa.
Apartheid was defined by an authoritarian political culture centered on baasskap, which ensured that South Africa was governed politically, socially, and economically by the country's dominant minority white population through majoritarianism.
This strategy is compelling since Gordimer states in her essay that people of color do jobs that no white man wants and are not permitted in any bar, club, or other establishment. And that no lady is permitted. And she does an excellent job of detailing what people of color and women faced at the period, as well as why they couldn't do what white males could.
A white guy could accomplish tasks that no woman or brown person could do. A white guy might vote and be seen at a bar with more freedom and liberties than a black or female person. And a white guy may serve in the military or be paid more than a black or Hispanic man or woman. A black guy could vote, but it didn't count, and women couldn't vote.

A symbol is anything that stands for or represents both itself and
something else. Which of the following elements of the setting in the
last paragraph best symbolize the old couple's feelings at the end of the
story?
what is the relation between power and freedom?
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.
