C. Onomatopoeia

An onomatopoeia is a word that sounds the same as its meaning. Knock is an onomatopoeia because the words sounds just like the sound of a knock. Batter may also be considered an onomatopoeia. A simile is a comparison between two unlike things using like or as. While the word "as" in this passage. There is nothing being compared. Personification is giving a nonhuman thing human like traits. There is nothing nonhuman in this passage that is receiving human traits. A volta is a turn in meaning. This is also not in the passage. It's also important to remember here that it says there is one underlined word. Onomatopoeia is the only option because it is the only thing that can be one word.

People protest about the cruelty of keeping animals in captivity, but they seem happy enough to eat meat, keep pets and visit zo
saw5 [17]

The way human beings get involved with animals can be seen in a contradictory and cruel way. On the one hand, we love our dogs, cats, ramister and other pets, however, we eat meat and other products from animal exploitation. Are we correct? No we are not.

All animals deserve respect and freedom. These factors are not promoted in animal exploitation for the meat, milk, egg industry, among others. Unfortunately, these products are very stabilized in our culture, and many of us are unable to abandon them. In that case, it is important that we assume our hypocresia and look for ways to change that if possible.

Another contradiction in relation to our behavior with animals is in relation to people who are against the domestic breeding of wild animals, but keep cats, dogs, birds and other pets. These people are not wrong to be against the captivity of wild animals, as it is impossible for all the needs of these animals to be met in another environment than nature. In addition, domesticated animals are able to supply all their needs in a domestic environment.

Therefore, we can affirm that the situation of animals in our society is already well elucidated, and it is up to people to become aware so that they can live better and better, in places that leave them with a good quality of life and security.
