Answer:
A person who is injured often wants to injure another in return
Explanation:
When Farmer Browne said, "I reckon it's not always like that fine scientist B. Franklin once said, "...the rotten apple spoils his companion?", he meant "a person who is injured often wants to injure another in return".
This means that someone can decide to injure other people in any way possible just because they were also injured.
A bad apple among other good apples will definitely cause harm (rottenness) to other good ones. This harm can be an injury or a bad influence.
The phrase "she turned white for just a moment," from the short story <em>The Gift of the Magi</em>, means she was afraid of something. In this case, she was afraid of her husband Jim's reaction.
She didn't have money to buy him a Christmas present, so she decided to sell her hair for 20 dollars. Later on that day, when she noticed her husband was arriving to the house, she got worried that he would think she wasn't pretty anymore.
Answer:
Connotation.
Explanation:
"Silence" poem is written by Marianne Moore. The poet speaks about the advice that the speaker's father has bestowed upon him/her in childhood. The advice given by the father was to be silent.
The literary device used in this line is connotation.
Connotation is the literary device which is used by the writer to suggest different meaning of the word than its literal meaning.
The word silence means willfully not expressing what one feels but restraint means a forceful suppression by which one is kept from speaking anything.
So, in the conclusive paragraph of the poem, the speaker is trying to say that her father is not teaching her to be silent, i.e., willfully not speaking but restraining her from speaking, meaning that even if she wants to speak she should keep silent.
So, the correct answer is connotation.
