Which figurative language is used in the sentence given?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Alliteration.

Explanation:

Alliteration is a literary device that refers to the use of the same consonant word in consecutive words in a sentence. In other words, we can say that alliteration is when the same consonant sound in close proximity in a sentence.

Answers

Answer:

D. explanation

Explanation:

Hi. Your question was presented in a very confusing way. This makes it difficult for it to be answered. However, when reading the speech "A Time for Choosing," we can see that Reagan used the context clue called "explanation," to allow listeners to understand the meaning of the word "beholden."

Context clue is a literary device used to allow the reader of a text or the listener of a speech to understand the meaning of unknown words, through the context of the sentence where they are placed. One type of context clue is called "explanation" and this type occurs when the meaning of the unknown word is entered right after that word. An example of this can be seen in "A Time for Choosing," when Reagan speaks:

"And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except to sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man."

Which line from the passage best supports the theme that patience is a virtue?

line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4

Answers

line1 because he really showing patience he said tunes in to his task like it's the only thing on planet

Answer:

Line 4

Explanation:

Line 4 states that our subject is 'slow and steady', implying that he has patience, and then describes the positive results of his scrupulous work: 'the issues have been solved and the car is running smoothly again'. The subject is able to reap the fruits of his labor, thus demonstrating that patience is a virtue.

The other sentences describe his engagement with his task in a more neutral way. In line 1, there is no mention of patience, only of his absorption in his task. In lines 2 and 3, the meticulous nature of his approach is described. Only in line 4 is the 'virtue' aspect of patience revealed.

Greed, Fear, Impatience, Ignorance, and Hope will all fight for mental dominance over the speculator.
