The figurative language is personification.

The meaning behind this quote and use of figurative language is rich. It means that "we" (those that are speaking) suffered slowly during said draught, and time continued passing while the days blended together. By 'day after day the pitiless sun blazed down,' the narrator means that every time a day passed and the sun set, it was sad and pathetic - meaning so little. The sun is personified in order to add depth and information to the text, which allows the reader to grasp the idea and mood the author is trying to convey to the audience.

Doug is fluent in French. Does he need to pick a French dictionary when he travels to France?explain.
xenn [34]
Yes, I think so. Fluent means he knows the language by heart whether that is his first language or not. However, he still could forget some things. Here in the U.S. We still look stuff up all the time in dictionary's or on our phones even though we are fluent in the language. So getting a French dictionary will help more.

In which sentence from the passage does the writer use an idiom?
liraira [26]

It would be the third sentence you've got there. I was actually leaning more towards the dinosaur grandma thing, but that's actually a metaphor.

Hope this helped. :)

What does the dialogue reveal about Rosetta?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: She feels confident about continuing on to Kans.

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because, in the end, she is saying that "Hmmph. Well, we've come this far. We'll just have to  go on without him."

She feels confident about it even though she does not know how to get there without the gu( that is why the second statement is false). She does not want to return to Louisiana with her family, she wants to continue the journey and that is why the first statement is also false.

The third statement is false because she is not angry at Nate, she is angry at the guru because he stole their money and disappear.
