Answer:
C. The author likens joy to sunshine to show how positive feelings can overcome dreariness.
Explanation:
This is a very common metaphor in literature: Sunshine is like an almighty force that can overcome pretty much anything.
In this case, Hector's joy is compared to sunshine, and there's no literal sunshine actually involved. Regardless, the figurative brightness and warmth of Hector's positive attitude is told to be powerful enough to overcome the dreariness (likened to gray skies and rain) that those around him may be going through.
The answer is D because it is the only answer choice that actually points out Hector's attitude as being a sunshine that overcomes the dreariness in others' moods.

This phrase reveal that Dr. Sadao is a skilled surgeon and only thought of curing the patient, regardless that he is an American and the enemy.
Explanation:
Dr. Sadao is the main character in the story 'The Enemy' written by Pearl S. Buck. Dr. Sadao is a skilled surgeon and lived near an isolated coast in Japan with his family. One day Tom, an American prisoner of war was washed up near Dr. Sadao's house. Sadao's instintive voice did not let him throw the prisoner back in the sea and they carried him and aided him.
While searching for the bullet in Tom's body, <em>all thoughts left </em>Sadao. All thoughts of what will happen to him and his family for giving shelter to an American war prisoner. And as he located the bullet, he felt the purest pleasure because he performed his duty as a skilled surgeon. As a doctor, it is his duty to save lives and when he was doing it, he did not think of anything else but to aid the prisoner.
This phrase shows that Dr. Sadao is not just a skilled surgeon but a good human being, and a doctor who knows his duty of saving lives regardless the danger it possess on his family.
<em>'He was familiar with every atom of this human body.'</em>
<em>'Then quickly, with the cleanest and most precise incision1', the bullet was out. ' </em>This phrases shows that Dr. Sadao was a skilled surgeon.

its pattern of darker brown
was like wallpaper:
shapes like full-blown roses
stained and lost through age.
Instead of using a specific rhyme scheme to give the poem a musical quality, Bishop uses literary devices, such as alliteration, to create rhythm in her poem:
still crimped from the strain and snap
She also creates a musical rhythm within the lines by using assonance:
frayed and wavering,
a five-haired beard of wisdom
trailing from his aching jaw.
I stared and stared
