Answer:

D.Personification

Explanation:

In Rhetoric, personification is a figure of speech. It is a technique in which you attribute human qualities to non-living things in order to bring an artsy meaning to the sentences. In this case, the Monarchy itself could not be evil, but as figure of speech, we can actually understand how the author felt about it.

Help me find the right aswer of gaps 2 and 5:
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

2. unattractive

5. However

Explanation:

In sentence number 2, the correct answer would be <em>unattractive</em>, as we can notice the shop windows discourage shoppers because of their emptiness. <em>Bustling </em>means full of activity,  <em>impressive</em> means special, important or really large,  so those options cannot be considered as a correct answer. Option A could be the correct answer, but <em>unattractive </em>fits better at the context then <em>frequent</em>.

In sentence number 5, the correct answer would be <em>however</em>. <em>Because</em> introduces causes and reasons, by introducing a subordinate clause, which needs a main clause to make it complete. Therefore, it cannot be considered a correct answer. <em>Although</em> means in spite of something and it can be used at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence, but it doesn't have a comma afterward and it cannot be considered as a correct answer.

We use <em>otherwise </em>to introduce a thought or an idea that contains an opposite claim or statement and to express our disagreement. It connects two clauses where the second clause (which contains otherwise) express what would have happened if the action in a first sentence hadn't occurred. Therefore, the correct answer is however. We use however to introduce a statement that expresses contrast with the previous sentence.

Lena [83]

Answer:

D. He doesn't always agree with the choices of who is honored by the public.

Explanation:

This excerpt is from Jonathan Swift's (1667 – 1745) "A Modest Proposal"<em> - A Modest Proposal for preventing the children of poor people in Ireland, from being a burden on their parents or country, and for making them beneficial to the publick.</em>

Option C is also similar to Option D, but option D better explain the situations.

From this excerpt and according to the options provided we can infer that the authors (Jonathan Swift) wants to stress on the importance of helping those children who are burden on their poor parents and country. He wants to say that this would be a real service to the public, and one which should really be appreciated.

In another sense there is also a satire in this piece of the excerpt in the usage and stress on words "fair, cheap and easy". Jonathan Swift is satirizing government's economy-centered policies. Government wants a fair, cheap and easy solution of issues which should be government's priority to solve at every cost. In fact this point of view of satire in this excerpt is more correct than the options provided.
