Which aspect of a novel most likely has little effect on character development and plot?

The antagonist
The conflict
The point of view
The setting

Answers

Answer:

The POV hope this helps :) (Im not totally sure, but yeah, maybe it's setting?)

Answer:

POV

Explanation:

If you use the process of elimination it's a lot easier to figure this out. so let's break this down, if you start with the conflict you know that it can't be the answer because the conflict is pretty much THE MOST IMPORTANT PART of a story, so that's not it. It wont be the setting because the setting plays a big role in seeing what the character can use and who they will see, so that's not it either. These two are both important so you have to pay attention to the words "MOST LIKELY" as you always should with every question that has it. So the antagonist pays a pretty big role because without it the character most likely wouldn't learn the lesson or point of the story.

"I figure it'd matter you had to live colored awhile."

The figurative language is metaphor. Additionally, he describes the Grinch as "as cuddly as a cactus."

What do you mean by metaphor?

A metaphor is a figure of speech that, for the sake of rhetorical effect, refers to one thing while simultaneously addressing another. Clarity may be offered (or obscured), and it may also reveal unnoticed connections between two disparate concepts.

Metaphors and other figurative language devices like antithesis, hyperbole, metonymy, and simile are frequently contrasted. Similes and metaphors are frequently contrasted.

A metaphor is described as "a condensed analogy," "analogical fusion," "operating in a similar way," "based on the same mental process," or even that "the essential processes of analogy are at work in metaphor," among other things.

Additionally, it is noted that the distinction between a metaphor and an analogy is hazy and that it could be conceptualized (metaphorically) as the distance between the objects being compared.

A simile only establishes a similarity through the use of terms like "like" or "as," whereas a metaphor asserts that the items in the comparison are same on the point of comparison. Because of this, a common-type metaphor is typically regarded as having greater impact than a simile.

Examine Harper Lee's use of descriptive language in the section of the book describing Calpurnia's community. What specific details do you find the most striking? What is your impression of Calpurnia's church?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. What strikes me most about the community in Calpunia is the sense of cooperativeness that everyone has. This is because the writer exposes a direct language that shows how an egalitarian and judgmental community like the one Calpunia lives in, has people willing to cooperate with each other in a free and efficient way, promoting the growth of members as a whole.

2. The Church of Calpunia gives me the impression of an environment that tries to strengthen the bonds between members of the community, strengthening cooperation between them, allowing everyone to participate in that environment and celebrate.
