What figure of speech is used in "White smoke crept over a green field."

Alliteration
Idiom
Simile
Personification

Answers

Answer:

Personification

Explanation:

Alliteration means the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

Idiom means a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words.

Simile means a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid.

Personification means the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

So the answer is personification because "White smoke crept over a green field." is the attribution of a personal nature characteristics.

The only mistake I see is the running only has 2 ns not three.

The comma after biking used to be optional, so it is not really an error, but I would check the grammar book you are using. Rules change.

It used to be incorrect to put a word between the verb and to. Now one word is permitted, which my teacher would have given me a week's detention for doing.

So not to go would have been considered correct

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of The Prince.


Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed to live under their own laws and in freedom, there are three courses for those who wish to hold them: the first is to ruin them, the next is to reside there in person, the third is to permit them to live under their own laws, drawing a tribute, and establishing within it an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you. Because such a government, being created by the prince, knows that it cannot stand without his friendship and interest, and does its utmost to support him; and therefore he who would keep a city accustomed to freedom will hold it more easily by the means of its own citizens than in any other way.


Which statement best summarizes the central idea of the paragraph?


A. A prince can hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom only by first ruining it, then moving there and establishing an oligarchy that is loyal to him.

B. There are three ways for a prince to hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom: ruin it, live there, or create an oligarchy that is loyal to him—and the third way is easiest.

C. A prince can hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom only by first ruining it, then moving there and winning the citizens’ loyalty by granting them freedom.

D. There are three ways for a prince to hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom: ruin it, live there, or create an oligarchy that is loyal to him, all of which are equally effective.

Answers

Answer:

The statement which best summarizes the central idea of the paragraph is:

B. There are three ways for a prince to hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom: ruin it, live there, or create an oligarchy that is loyal to him - and the third way is the easiest.

Explanation:

"The Prince" is a book published in 1532 by Niccolò Machiavelli, an Italian statesman and and political philosopher born in 1469.

As we can see in the excerpt, Machiavelli is discussing the ways a conqueror can maintain a conquered land under his control, especially if the people from that land are used to being free and to having their own government. According to him, there are 3 ways: "to ruin them, . . . to reside (live) there in person, . . . and establishing an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you."

The third way is the easiest one. The conqueror would be using the land's own people and politicians in his favor. With that in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option.
