In literacy work, verbal irony refers to a _________?
Detalhes da Resposta
Verbal irony refers to a device in which the speaker means the opposite of what they say. In other words, the speaker says one thing but actually means the opposite. This can be used for humorous purposes or to make a sarcastic or critical comment. For example, if someone says "what a beautiful day" on a rainy and gloomy day, they are using verbal irony because they do not actually mean that it is a beautiful day.

Detalhes da Resposta
In "Native Son", Mr. Dalton earned a fortune in real estate. Although he profits from charging high rents to poor black tenants—including Bigger’s family—on Chicago’s South Side, he nonetheless claims to be a generous philanthropist and supporter of black Americans. Mr. Dalton is a major player in the production of the “whiteness” that terrifies, oppresses, and enrages Bigger. Despite Bigger’s criminal record, Mr. Dalton gives him a job because he thinks that blacks deserve a chance. Nonetheless, there is condescension in Mr. Dalton’s manner and charity. He simultaneously profits from keeping blacks like Bigger’s family in terrible housing, and expresses alleged benevolence by giving Bigger a menial job.

Use the following excerpt to answer the question.
"I wonder how long, you awful parasites,
Shall share with me this little bed.
And awake me. from my sweet dreams be lost,
Sucking blood from my poor head...
Mbure: "To Bed-Bug"
The most dominant figure of speech in the excerpt is________
Detalhes da Resposta
The most dominant figure of speech in the excerpt is personification. Personification is a figure of speech in which non-human things are given human qualities or characteristics. In the excerpt, the bed bugs are referred to as "awful parasites" and are accused of "sharing" the bed with the speaker, "awakening" them from their sleep, and "sucking" blood from their head. These actions are all human qualities that are attributed to the bed bugs, which are non-human. This creates a sense of empathy between the speaker and the bed bugs, and also serves to emphasize the speaker's annoyance and frustration with the bed bugs. The other options - metaphor, simile, and hyperbole - do not accurately describe the dominant figure of speech in the excerpt.

The phrase “living death” in a literary work is an example_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
The phrase "living death" in a literary work is an example of an "oxymoron." An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines two contradictory or opposing ideas to create a new phrase or concept. In this case, "living" and "death" are two words that are completely opposite in meaning. "Living" refers to being alive and having a vibrant existence, while "death" refers to the absence of life and the end of existence. By combining these two words into the phrase "living death," the author is able to create a powerful image of a situation or state of being that is both alive and dead at the same time. In literature, oxymorons are often used to create a sense of tension, irony, or paradox. They can also be used to create memorable and thought-provoking phrases that stick in the reader's mind. In the case of "living death," the oxymoron is particularly effective in describing a situation or condition that is both physically alive but emotionally or spiritually dead. This can be used to describe a character who is in a state of despair, depression, or hopelessness, or to describe a situation that is stagnant, unchanging, or lacking in vitality.

A poet‘s use of regular rhythm is known as _______?
Detalhes da Resposta
A poet's use of regular rhythm is known as "metre." Metre refers to the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry. This pattern creates a rhythmic beat that helps to create a particular mood or feeling in the reader. For example, a poem with a regular and steady metre might create a sense of stability or order, while a poem with an irregular or unpredictable metre might create a sense of chaos or confusion. Metre is one of the key elements of poetry and is often used in conjunction with other poetic devices, such as rhyme, to create a memorable and powerful piece of writing.

These elements are sections of text within a chapter, they are separated and contain dialogue_____________
Detalhes da Resposta
The element that describes sections of text within a chapter, which are separated and contain dialogue, is Paragraphs. Paragraphs are groups of sentences that focus on a particular topic or idea. They are separated by a line break or an indentation to indicate a new thought or a change in the speaker or the setting. In a novel or a story, paragraphs often contain dialogue, which is the spoken words of the characters in the story. Dialogue can help to advance the plot, reveal character traits, and create tension or conflict between characters. Syncopation refers to a musical rhythm that emphasizes the off-beat, and is not directly related to writing. Free verse is a form of poetry that does not follow traditional rhyme and meter patterns, and does not necessarily contain dialogue. Euphony refers to the pleasant sound of words and is more of a stylistic choice in writing, rather than a structural element like paragraphs.

Which element of drama tells the actor what to do?
Detalhes da Resposta
The element of drama that tells the actor what to do is the "stage directions." Stage directions are written instructions in a script that describe the physical actions, movements, and expressions of the characters, as well as the placement of props and set pieces on the stage. These instructions are usually indicated in italics or enclosed in brackets and are intended to guide the actors, director, and other production team members on how to bring the play to life. For example, a stage direction might indicate that a character should enter from stage left, pick up a pen from the desk, and begin writing a letter while pacing back and forth. Actors use these stage directions as a roadmap to bring their characters to life, and to help create a cohesive and believable performance for the audience.

A literary work in which the characters and events are used as symbols is known as _________?
Detalhes da Resposta
A literary work in which the characters and events are used as symbols is known as an allegory. An allegory is a story or narrative that has a hidden meaning or moral message conveyed through the use of symbols. In an allegory, characters and events represent abstract ideas or concepts, often related to politics, religion, or morality.

However, the pigs gradually become corrupt and oppressive, representing the rise of Stalinism in the Soviet Union. The animals and events in the story are symbolic of real-life figures and events, allowing the author to criticize political systems and social issues in a veiled and often satirical way. Overall, an allegory is a powerful literary device that can be used to convey complex ideas and messages in a way that is engaging, thought-provoking, and often entertaining.

_____________refers to time and place of a drama?
Detalhes da Resposta
The term that refers to the time and place of a drama is "setting." The setting is the physical and social environment in which a story or drama takes place. It includes the time period, the location, the climate, and the social context of the story. The setting can be a specific place, such as a city, a building, or a room, or it can be a more general location, such as a forest, a beach, or a desert. In drama, the setting is important because it helps to establish the context of the story and provides the audience with a visual and emotional backdrop for the action. The setting can also influence the characters' behavior and motivations, as well as the themes and messages of the drama. Therefore, if someone is referring to the time and place of a drama, they are talking about the setting. It is important to note that the setting is not the same as a scene or an act, which refer to specific parts of the drama rather than the overall environment in which the story takes place.
