Figurative Language is a Symbolism and a Hyperbole
Symbolism
Symbolism is using symbols to represent ideas. The main character of the poem, Annabel Lee, is a symbol for Edgar Allan Poe's dead wife, Virginia Poe. The sea is a powerful, unpredictable element of nature. It is from a sea wind that Annabel Lee gets the chill that kills her. The sea is a looming, ominous presence in the poem and symbolizes loneliness, coldness, and emptiness. In the end, Annabel Lee dies and is put in a sepulchre, or tomb. The sepulchre symbolizes death.
Hyperbole
Hyperbole is exaggeration. 'I was a child and she was a child.' This is a line from the poem 'Annabel Lee' in which the narrator talks about Annabel Lee and himself as children. This is hyperbole, or exaggeration, to indicate that Annabel Lee and the narrator were young and in love.
example: Figurative language uses literary devices to go beyond the actual meaning of the words and phrases. It is often used in literature and is the opposite of literal language, which tells things exactly as they are. Figurative language is used in literature because it can give new and hidden meaning to a story. While there are many different types of figurative language, in this lesson we'll look closely at uses and examples of symbolism, hyperbole, personification, and alliteration from 'Annabel Lee.'

In what way is Zaroff portrayed as Rainsford's foil? Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience. Zaroff is an enthusiastic hunter, while Rainsford is indifferent to hunting. Zaroff is an inconsiderate host, while Rainsford is a very good guest. Zaroff has little hunting experience, while Rainsford has a lot.
Answer:
Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.
Zaroff is an enthusiastic hunter, while Rainsford is indifferent to hunting.
Zaroff is an inconsiderate host, while Rainsford is a very good guest.
Zaroff has little hunting experience, while Rainsford has a lot.
Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game."
"I can't believe you are serious, General Zaroff. This is a grisly joke."
"Why should I not be serious? I am speaking of hunting."
"Hunting? General Zaroff, what you speak of is murder."
The general laughed with entire good nature. He regarded Rainsford quizzically. "I refuse to believe that so modern and civilized a young man as you seem to be harbors romantic ideas about the value of human life. Surely your experiences in the war—"
"Did not make me condone cold-blooded murder," finished Rainsford stiffly.
answer - Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.
Explanation:
From the excerpt, it can be rightly seen that Zaroff does not in any way, oppose the murdering of other people. He sees such actions as a type of hunting that is good.
Zaroff has a character, quite different from that of Rainsford because he has no form of regard for the lives of human beings, whether they are alive or not, it makes no difference to him.
Answer
A. Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.

Select the correct text in the passage. Which lines from Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address support the claim that the president’s speech helped clarify the purpose of the war? Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that "all men are created equal." Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation might live. This we may, in all propriety do. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow, this ground—The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here. It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us —that, from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people by the people for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Which of the following sentences first expresses the main claim of the passage?
Hello. You forgot to include the excerpt to which the question refers and the answer options.
The excerpt talks about the need to remove mountain goats from the Olympic National Park and transport them to North Cascades National Park.
The response options are:
(4) Once there, helicopters again lifted the goats, this time in crates, into the mountains to be set free.
(5) In this way, wildlife officials caught 114 goats in the first phase of the Mountain Goat Management Plan, but they ultimately will have relocated 90 percent of the 700 goats from the Olympics to the North Cascades.
(6) This removal process may be complicated, but it is necessary.
(9) Since then, the goat population has flourished and could reach 1,500 by 2028.
(10) Park officials also worry about the goats’ deleterious habits of damaging vegetation and causing erosion.
Answer:
(6) This removal process may be complicated, but it is necessary.
Explanation:
Although all the answer options somehow express the main theme of the excerpt, the first one that does this is sentence (6), which speaks directly about how the passage of goats from one region to another, although necessary, will not be easy , so it must be discussed and explained in the course of the article, where the other phrases shown will be inserted, thus forming the theme and the main message of the full text.

Explanation:
Fortunato is a conssoisseur (professional taster) of wine. How does the narrator, Montressor, use this to lure Fortunato in? Consider what Montressor appeals to as well.
Answer and Explanation:
This question refers to Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado". Montresor is the narrator. He wishes to carry out his vengeance against his friend Fortunato. He does not specify the reasons why, simply stating Fortunato had somehow offended him.
In order to lure Fortunato to his family's catacombs, Montresor uses the fact that Fortunato is a wine connoisseur. He claims to have obtained a barrel of Amontillado but, saying he has his doubts, asks Fortunato to come and taste it to make sure. Montresor also appeals to Fortunato's pride. To make sure his friend will want to come along, he mentions another connoisseur, Luchresi. That makes Fortunato jealous, since he believes himself to be the best there is. Thus, Montresor successfully deceives and lures his friend.

To complete this exercise, you have to read the short story and then choose the sentence that states the theme. This short story is about a man who dreams that he is going to be rich if he travels to Beijing.
The correct sentence is the third one because when he goes to Beijing he finds out there is a treasure in his yard and he finally gets rich.

Themes are the fundamental and often universal ideas explored in a literary work.
The Indispensable Struggle for Mastery
The Call of the Wild is a story of transformation in which the old Buck—the civilized, moral Buck—must adjust to the harsher realities of life in the frosty North, where survival is the only imperative. Kill or be killed is the only morality among the dogs of the Klondike, as Buck realizes from the moment he steps off the boat and watches the violent death of his friend Curly. The wilderness is a cruel, uncaring world, where only the strong prosper. It is, one might say, a perfect Darwinian world, and London’s depiction of it owes much to Charles Darwin, who proposed the theory of evolution to explain the development of life on Earth and envisioned a natural world defined by fierce competition for scarce resources. The term often used to describe Darwin’s theory, although he did not coin it, is “the survival of the fittest,” a phrase that describes Buck’s experience perfectly. In the old, warmer world, he might have sacrificed his life out of moral considerations; now, however, he abandons any such considerations in order to survive.
But London is not content to make the struggle for survival the central theme of his novel; instead, his protagonist struggles toward a higher end, namely mastery. We see this struggle particularly in Buck’s conflict with Spitz, in his determination to become the lead dog on Francois and Perrault’s team, and, at the end of the novel, in the way that he battles his way to the leadership of the wolf pack. Buck does not merely want to survive; he wants to dominate—as do his rivals, dogs like Spitz. In this quest for domination, which is celebrated by London’s narrative, we can observe the influence of Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher of the late nineteenth century. Nietzsche’s worldview held that the world was composed of masters, those who possessed what he called “the will to power,” and slaves, those who did not possess this will. Nietzsche delighted in using animal metaphors, comparing masters to “birds of prey” and “blonde beasts” and comparing slaves to sheep and other herd animals. London’s Buck, with his indomitable strength and fierce desire for mastery, is a canine version of Nietzsche’s masterful men, his Napoleon Bonapartes and Julius Caesars. Buck is a savage creature, in a sense, and hardly a moral one, but London, like Nietzsche, expects us to applaud this ferocity. His novel suggests that there is no higher destiny for man or beast than to struggle, and win, in the battle for mastery.
The Power of Ancestral Memory and Primitive Instincts
When Buck enters the wild, he must learn countless lessons in order to survive, and he learns them well. But the novel suggests that his success in the frozen North is not merely a matter of learning the ways of the wild; rather, Buck gradually recovers primitive instincts and memories that his wild ancestors possessed, which have been buried as dogs have become civilized creatures. The technical term for what happens to Buck is atavism—the reappearance in a modern creature of traits that defined its remote forebears. London returns to this theme again and again, constantly reminding us that Buck is “retrogressing,” as the novel puts it, into a wilder way of life that all dogs once shared. “He was older than the days he had seen and the breaths he had drawn,” we are told. “He linked the past with the present, and the eternity behind him throbbed through him in a mighty rhythm to which he swayed as the tides and seasons swayed.” Buck even has occasional visions of this older world, when humans wore animal skins and lived in caves, and when wild dogs hunted their prey in the primeval forests. His connection to his ancestral identity is thus more than instinctual; it is mystical. The civilized world, which seems so strong, turns out to be nothing more than a thin veneer, which is quickly worn away to reveal the ancient instincts lying dormant underneath. Buck hears the call of the wild, and London implies that, in the right circumstances, we might hear it too.
