Hello, the answer is D, metaphor.
For example, "She is a diamond"

Onomatopoeia is an imitation of a sound. 
For example, "Pow!" or "Boom!"

Personification is giving nonhuman objects human attributes. 
For example, "The branches of the tree danced in the wind"
 
A simile is a comparison using like or as. 
For example, "She is as valuable as a diamond"

Hope this helped. Have a nice day. :)

What makes this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens an example of direct characterization? The elderly female was a wom
insens350 [35]

Direct characterization is when the author specifically tells the reader the traits of a character. In this excerpt, Dickens tells you that the woman is elderly, wise, experienced and knows what is "good for children". If Dickens had used indirect characterization, he would have need to shown her wisdom and experience by including specific examples. The reader would then be lead to develop his own conclusion about the whether or not the woman was wise and experienced.

Which scenario is an example of sarcasm?
Anit [1.1K]

A. Anna asks Beth to go to the beach, and Beth replies, "Sure, I'd love to lay in dirt and be roasted like a pig at a barbeque!"


Sarcasm is a form of irony. It is when a person says the opposite of what they really mean. In option A, Beth does not want to go to the beach because she doesn't enjoy sitting in the sand and getting burnt by the sun. We know this because she compares the sand to dirt and being in the sun to a pig roasting at a barbeque. The other options are true statements. The rainbow does match the crayons, waffles are a breakfast food, and Linda's writing was stellar.
