“Its heart is bright pink and almost solid with seeds,” is an example of -





a
figurative language; metaphor
b
literal language
c
figurative language; simile
d
figurative language; oxymoron

Answer:

a ) Figurative language; metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that is used to make a comparison between two things that aren't alike but do have something in common. Unlike a simile, where two things are compared directly using like or as, a metaphor's comparison is more indirect, usually made by stating something is something else.

A metaphor states that one thing is another thing

It equates those two things not because they actually are the same, but for the sake of comparison or symbolism

If you take a metaphor literally, it will probably sound very strange (are there actually any sheep, black or otherwise, in your family?)

Metaphors are used in poetry, literature, and anytime someone wants to add some color to their language

Answer:

a or d leaning towards a

Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass.

She looked at the Queen, who seemed to have suddenly wrapped herself up in wool. Alice rubbed her eyes, and looked again. She couldn't make out what had happened at all. Was she in a shop? And was that really—was it really a SHEEP that was sitting on the other side of the counter? Rub as she could, she could make nothing more of it: she was in a little dark shop, leaning with her elbows on the counter, and opposite to her was an old Sheep, sitting in an arm-chair knitting, and every now and then leaving off to look at her through a great pair of spectacles.

“What is it you want to buy?” the Sheep said at last, looking up for a moment from her knitting.

“I don't QUITE know yet,” Alice said, very gently. “I should like to look all round me first, if I might.”

“You may look in front of you, and on both sides, if you like,” said the Sheep: “but you can't look ALL round you—unless you've got eyes at the back of your head.”

The tone of this passage is best described as

serious and reflective.
scientific and factual.
light and romantic.
imaginative and humorous.

Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer.

They fell in, soon enough, with Lotus-Eaters,
who showed no will to do us harm, only
offering the sweet Lotus to our friends—
but those who ate this honeyed plant, the Lotus,
never cared to report, nor to return:
they longed to stay forever, browsing on
that native bloom, forgetful of their homeland.
I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships,
tied them down under their rowing benches,
and called the rest: All hands aboard;
come, clear the beach and no one taste
the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home.

Many Latin roots can combine with both the suffix -ion, which forms abstract nouns, and the suffix -ive, which forms adjectives – creating a related pair of words. For instance, the abstract noun cognition and the related adjective cognitive are both formed from the root -cognit-, meaning “knowledge” or “thought.”

Reread paragraph 10. List the adjective ending in -ive and write the abstract noun to which it is related.

Which part of this excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island best shows that the narrator was not pleased with the new look of the
Admiral Benbow Inn?
The next morning he and I set out on foot for the Admiral Benbow, and there I found my mother in good health and spirits. The captain, who
had so long been a cause of so much discomfort, was gone where the wicked cease from troubling. The squire had had everything repaired, and
the public rooms and the sign repainted, and had added some furniture --above all a beautiful armchair for mother in the bar. He had found
her a boy as an apprentice also so that she should not want help while I was gone.
It was on seeing that boy that I understood, for the first time, my situation. I had thought up to that moment of the adventures before me, not at
all of the home that I was leaving; and now, at sight of this clumsy stranger, who was to stay here in my place beside my mother, I had my first
attack of tears. I am afraid I led that boy a dog's life, for as he was new to the work, I had a hundred opportunities of setting him right and
putting him down, and I was not slow to profit by them.
The night passed, and the next day, after dinner, Redruth and I were afoot again and on the road. I said good-bye to Mother and the cove where
I had lived since I was born, and the dear old Admiral Benbow-since he was repainted, no longer quite so dear. One of my last thoughts was of
the captain, who had so often strode along the beach with his cocked hat, his sabre-cut cheek, and his old brass telescope. Next moment we had
turned the corner and my home was out of sight.
