Antithesis as a literary device, uses parallelism to Express contradictory ideas as one overarching and fluid theme that when taken together cause the reader to pause and deeply consider what the author is trying to convey. In "life without go-go boots,"the author uses two contrasting views regarding her position on fashion and its importance in how we are slated in society. Opposing one another throughout the piece are the importance of inner-individuality as well as outward conformity. The two seemingly opposite ideas when taken together help define the constant warring ideas every person on the planet goes through at one point or another. The author pits them opposite one another as a sort of yin and yang where both are required to maintain balance in the universe-at least her universe. In reality her lack of fashion brings her to a much more comfortable position in life as she realizes her career as an author allow her to be eccentric every day. Until she is required to play by the rules and go to her awards ceremony. She accentuates the theme of contradiction all the way to the end when she describes the suit which still hangs at the top of her closet, dry cleaned as if to remind her that despite her best efforts to be that fashion-conscious lady she understands that was and never will be her role. She doesnt fault either side but does express the sentiment that the fact that she never was that person still bothers the little girl in her that longed for acceptance by the masses.
The flower if drank, made those not want to go home to their families, but they want to. The flower makes them do things they dont want to, this is like alcohol or drugs. People take them and they may do things they dont want to, they have to control.

Answer:
- The slowing of the pace shows readers the cause of the windmill's destruction.
- The slowing of the pace creates suspense for readers about what is to come.
- The slowing of the pace gives readers details about the storm and its aftermath.
Explanation:
Pace is a common tool used by authors to develop the text and this was used in chapter 6 of the Animal Farm. It is the first year since Napoleon chased Snowball from the farm and assumed power and he had began building the Windmill.
The windmill however collapses one night but the pace which the story was slowed down to allowed for suspense to be created as well as for the reader to learn the causes of the windmill's destruction as well as details of the storm and its aftermath.
Given that I don't know how exactly these have been copied down, it could be "we had to memorize washington’s farewell speech." or "<span>i have subscribed to cooking magazine for many years." I'd most likely say the second one though.</span>
Imagists believed that poems should have "no ideas but in things." In other words, they would described powerful images, and instead of explaining what those images meant, they would let the reader decide what the meaning or value of those images might be.
Imagists were especially fond of inviting the reader to recognize how very different sorts of images can actually be really similar. Ezra Pound famously did this with his short poem "In a Station of the Metro," which associates "faces in the crowd" with "petals on a wet, black bough."
The poem in your question does something very similar by associating the cat's footprints in the snow with the blossoming flowers of a plum tree. The writer wants you to recognize the odd visual similarity of the footprints and the flowers, ideally to show how there's a kind of cosmic connectedness in the world by (because two very different things end up being really similar).
That's why I think your best answer is A.
