Shelia took the rap for her brother when he broke the antique lamp.
what figurative language is this and how do you know?
Answer:
It is an Idiomatic expression.
Explanation:
An idiomatic expression is a phrase or group of words whose meaning cannot be deduced from the literal words used. In the sentence above, 'to take the rap', simply means to take the blame for an offense for which the individual may or may not be guilty of. So, Sheila was blamed or punished when her brother broke the antique lamp. The native speakers of a language are quite familiar with the idiomatic expressions in their language.
I knew that the phrase, 'took the rap', was an idiomatic expression because I could not easily deduce its meaning from just the literal words used. So I understood that there must have been a deeper meaning to it.

At the end of the story, Madame Forestier reveals to Mathilde that the necklace was an imitation. Is it significant that neither Mathilde nor anyone at the party noticed that the necklace was a fake
Answer:
This revelation is quite significant since it symbolizes the story's great irony.
Explanation:
This irony stands in the fact that Mathilde had to work and even went in debt in order to get a replacement for a piece of jewelry that was a fake. The necklace looks like it has value but is truly just an imitation, which in turn symbolized Mathilde not being happy with her life and with what she had in the first place.

Answer:
O Machiavelli uses logical evidence through historical examples to support his claim.
Explanation:
Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince" is a treatise that contains how princely states must be ruled and made to be obedient. It also details how rulers must act and do things in such a way to maintain power and authority over the state for a longer duration.
In the given passage/ excerpt, Machiavelli used historical evidence/ example to authenticate his argument that suggests that rulers of any state can be cruel if they are to rule over it for a long time. This is not only to maintain power over the state, but it is also needed for the security of the state and himself. Taking an example from "Agathocles, the Sicilian King of Syracuse", Machiavelli mentions how the king "assembled the people and the senate of Syracuse as if he had to discuss with them things relating to the Republic, and at a given signal the soldiers killed all the senators and the richest of the people" and seize the power for himself without the need to directly hurt the common people.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Explanation:
Read this passage from “The Story of an Hour.” What can you infer about Mrs. Mallard’s internal conflict? There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know; it was too subtle and elusive to name. But she felt it, creeping out of the sky, reaching toward her through the sounds, the scents, the color that filled the air. Now her bosom rose and fell tumultuously. She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her, and she was striving to beat it back with her will--as powerless as her two white slender hands would have been. When she abandoned herself a little whispered word escaped her slightly parted lips. She said it over and over under her breath: "free, free, free!" The vacant stare and the look of terror that had followed it went from her eyes. They stayed keen and bright. Her pulses beat fast, and the coursing blood warmed and relaxed every inch of her body. She did not stop to ask if it were or were not a monstrous joy that held her. A clear and exalted perception enabled her to dismiss the suggestion as trivial. She knew that she would weep again when she saw the kind, tender hands folded in death; the face that had never looked save with love upon her, fixed and gray and dead. But she saw beyond that bitter moment a long procession of years to come that would belong to her absolutely. And she opened and spread her arms out to them in welcome. There would be no one to live for during those coming years; she would live for herself. There would be no powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a right to impose a private will upon a fellow-creature. A kind intention or a cruel intention made the act seem no less a crime as she looked upon it in that brief moment of illumination. And yet she had loved him--sometimes. Often she had not. What did it matter! What could love, the unsolved mystery, count for in the face of this possession of self-assertion which she suddenly recognized as the strongest impulse of her being! "Free! Body and soul free!" she kept whispering. A: Mrs. Mallard had hated her husband, and she is glad that he is dead. B: Mrs. Mallard had loved her husband, and she is heartbroken that he is dead. C: Mrs. Mallard had loved her husband, but she is happy that she is free. D: Mrs. Mallard had hated her husband, but she is terrified to be alone.

Which book citations are formatted correctly
When my mother died I was very young, And my father sold me while yet my tongue Could scarcely cry ‘Weep! weep! weep! weep!' So your chimneys I sweep, and in soot I sleep. There’s little Tom Dacre, who cried when his head, That curled like a lamb’s back, was shaved; so I said, ‘Hush, Tom! never mind it, for, when your head’s bare, You know that the soot cannot spoil your white hair.' And so he was quiet, and that very night, As Tom was a-sleeping, he had such a sight!-- That thousands of sweepers, Deck, Joe, Ned, and Jack, Were all of them locked up in coffins of black. And by came an angel, who had a bright key, And he opened the coffins, and set them all free; Then down a green plain, leaping, laughing, they run And wash in a river, and shine in the sun. Then naked and white, all their bags left behind, They rise upon clouds, and sport in the wind; And the angel told Tom, if he’d be a good boy, He’d have God for his father, and never want joy. And so Tom awoke, and we rose in the dark, And got with our bags and our brushes to work. Though the morning was cold, Tom was happy and warm: So, if all do their duty, they need not fear harm.

How does this passage demonstrate the use of propaganda? Select two options. It demonstrates repetition because Squealer reminds the animals that they are free at the farm because of the work they are doing. It demonstrates hyperbole because Squealer exaggerates the figures related to positive developments of the farm. It demonstrates bandwagon because Squealer convinces the animals that everyone believes that life is better now than it was before. It demonstrates plain folks because Squealer explains why the pigs and dogs deserve better food rations than the other animals. It demonstrates glittering generalities because Squealer does not explain the claim that equality in rations would be contrary to the farm’s ideals.
Since the excerpt is missing, I will add it here to make sure everyone can understand the answer:
Meanwhile life was hard. The winter was as cold as the last one had been, and food was even shorter. Once again all rations were reduced, except those of the pigs and the dogs. A too rigid equality in rations, Squealer explained, would have been contrary to the principles of Animalism. In any case he had no difficulty in proving to the other animals that they were NOT in reality short of food, whatever the appearances might be. For the time being, certainly, it had been found necessary to make a readjustment of rations (Squealer always spoke of it as a "readjustment," never as a "reduction"), but in comparison with the days of Jones, the improvement was enormous. Reading out the figures in a shrill, rapid voice, he proved to them in detail that they had more oats, more hay, more turnips than they had had in Jones's day, that they worked shorter hours, that their drinking water was of better quality, that they lived longer, that a larger proportion of their young ones survived infancy, and that they had more straw in their stalls and suffered less from fleas. The animals believed every word of it. Truth to tell, Jones and all he stood for had almost faded out of their memories. They knew that life nowadays was harsh and bare, that they were often hungry and often cold, and that they were usually working when they were not asleep. But doubtless it had been worse in the old days. They were glad to believe so. Besides, in those days they had been slaves and now they were free, and that made all the difference, as Squealer did not fail to point out.
Answer:
The passage above demonstrates the use of propaganda because:
It demonstrates bandwagon because Squealer convinces the animals that everyone believes that life is better now than it was before.
It demonstrates glittering generalities because Squealer does not explain the claim that equality in rations would be contrary to the farm’s ideals.
Explanation:
Bandwagon means stating that your opinion is the right one because most people agree with you. After reading some numbers and stating some facts no animal could disprove, Squealer efficiently convinced them to agree with him. Having most animals on his side makes it easier to keep things under control.
A glittering generality does not offer any explanation or information. It simply states something in a way that can evoke feelings or that seems right. Squealer states that rigidity in controlling rations would be against the principles of Animalism, but he does not explain why.
This passage demonstrate the use of propaganda because:
C. It demonstrates bandwagon because Squealer convinces the animals that everyone believes that life is better now than it was before. E. It demonstrates glittering generalities because Squealer does not explain the claim that equality in rations would be contrary to the farm’s ideals.According to the given excerpt, we are told of how hard life was for the animals and how food scarcity had led to begin to eat in rations, all except for the pigs and dogs.
The narrator makes use of bandwagon propaganda by showing erroneously that his claim was right because he was supported by a majority of the animals.,
He also made use of glittering generalities to show that his claim is right, even though he does not offer any valid explanation. He rather relies on the emotions of the animals to back him up.
Therefore, the correct answers are options C and E
