I believe that the best answer for this question is sensory language. Sensory language engages at least one of the five senses, be it smell, sight, touch, taste, or sound. It helps the reader to further visualize what they are reading. I am unsure of what the options are for this question, but hopefully this helps!

Solution 1

Metaphors that compare humans to animals "anthropomorphize" them. Anthropomorphization is a literary device that gives human qualities to animals. These metaphors may help to highlight the similarities between animal natures and human nature, which illustrates how truly similar every living thing is to each other. Hope this helps.

Question

This person (who had thus, from the first moment of his entrance, struck in me what I can only describe as a disgustful curiosity) was dressed in a fashion that would have made an ordinary person laughable; his clothes, that is to say, although they were of rich and sober fabric, were enormously too large for him in every measurement—the trousers hanging on his legs and rolled up to keep them from the ground, the waist of the coat below his haunches, and the collar sprawling wide upon his shoulders. . . . there was something abnormal and misbegotten in the very essence of the creature that now faced me—something seizing, surprising and revolting . . . –The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Robert Louis Stevenson How does this part of the letter create suspense? Check all that apply. 1. by describing a mysterious visitor 2. by describing an ordinary visitor 3. by not stating the identity of the visitor 4. by revealing Dr. Lanyon’s feelings about the visitor by calling the visitor "laughable"

Solution 1

By describing a mysterious visitor, by not stating the identity of the visitor and by revealing Dr. Lanyon's feelings about the visitor does this part of the letter create suspense. Hence, option A, C and D are correct.

What is the story Jekyll and Hyde about?

A kind, smart, and well-respected doctor named Dr. Jekyll works with science's more enigmatic facets in an effort to access his "second nature." By assuming the identity of Mr. Hyde, his wicked alter ego who refuses to acknowledge or accept responsibility for his terrible acts and behavior, he does this.

One of Edinburgh's most intriguing personalities and the model for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson is the renowned Deacon Brodie.

The conflict between Jekyll's good and evil personas serves to highlight how everyone possesses both good and evil. This is the main lesson of the story, and the beginning, middle, and finish all provide various examples of it.

Thus, option A, C and D are correct.

Solution 1

Answer:

The underlined portion of the sentence is a Dependent Clause

Explanation:

A dependant Clause is one that can not state by itself to have a complete idea, it depends on a Main Clause to communicate something, "When my next-door neighbor fell and broke her hip" depends on the main clause since we do not know what happened to the next-door neighbor, besides one important characteristic of many dependant clauses is that they begin with a subordinating conjunction, in this case, the word "when".

Question

Which of the following best summarizes one central idea of the passage from "Mother Tongue"? The way a person speaks English is nobody’s business but family members. The way a person speaks English is not noticed by business professionals. The way a person speaks English is not a good measure of intellectual ability. The way a person speaks English is the best criteria for a career choice.

Solution 1

After reading the essay "Mother Tongue," by Amy Tan, we can say that the following passage summarizes one central idea:

C. The way a person speaks English is not a good measure of intellectual ability.

What is a central idea?

A central idea can be defined as that thought that unifies an entire work, that is, the idea that determines what the literary work is about.

What is the central idea in "Mother Tongue"?

Even without the passage mentioned in the question, we can eliminate options A, B, and D simply because such ideas do not appear in the text at all.

The correct option is letter C. What Amy Tan defends in the paper is the idea that one's English does not necessarily represents one's intellectual ability.

She explains that her mother, a Chinese immigrant, speaks a "broken English." For that reason, people often mistreat her, acting as if she is incapable of understanding complex thoughts and concepts, which is not true.

Tan says that her mother is an intelligent woman who is perfectly capable of communicating. It is other people's prejudice that prevents such communication from happening.

Solution 2

Answer:

The option that best summarizes one central idea of the passage from "Mother Tongue" is The way a person speaks English is not a good measure of intellectual ability.

Explanation:

Amy Tan talks about her mother's 'broken English'. She says that when she was growing up she felt ashamed of the way her mother spoke. She is a grown up, now. Her mother understands all kinds of texts but she continues to speak in the same 'limited' way. Tan concludes that the way someone speaks is not a measure of intellectual ability. Ability tests cannot measure her mother's passion, imagery and the nature of her thoughts.
