After confirming news of the Prince's engagement to Lady Violet, the
Crown issued an official proclamation that created a media storm.
This sentence uses which figurative device?
Select one:
- Metonymy
- Synecdoche
- Metaphor
- Apostrophe
Answer:
Metonymy
Explanation:
The first thing I want to look at is the definition of each figurative device.
Metonymy - the substitution of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of the thing meant, for example, suit for business executive, or the track for horse racing.
Synecdoche - a figure of speech in which a part is made to represent the whole or vice versa, as in Cleveland won by six runs (meaning “Cleveland's baseball team”).
Metaphor - a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
Apostrophe - a speech or address to a person who is not present or to a personified object, such as Yorick's skull in Hamlet.
After looking at these definitions I have concluded that the correct option is metonymy referincing to "Crown" as being a replacement to the royal family or the king in either case.

What is the name for the process of deciding what the information in a textmeans?
A. Making observations
B. Summarizing
C. Making inferences
D. Reading
SUBMIT
Answer: C. Making inferences
Explanation:
When we receive a text, we read it, make observations and summarize it in our minds. After this we then use the information gathered to make inferences which would enable us understand the meaning of the message.
We will then be able to formulate a reply based on the inferences made about what the text could mean. This process can happen really fast and is the reason texting can happen in relatively huge volumes in a short period of time.

Between foreseeing and averting change
Lies all the mastery of elements
Which clocks and weather-glasses cannot alter.
Based on the lines, what are two interacting central ideas of the poem?
A
Events happen in life based on our previous choices and decisions, and we are able to predict what comes next, just as we can predict the weather.
B
Events happen in life regardless and often contrary to one’s attempts at prediction, and we cannot stop troubles but instead just protect ourselves.
C
Humans have mastered a number of tools for prediction of weather, and therefore we can protect ourselves from catastrophic events.
D
Humans can predict acts of nature because of technology, and yet humans cannot predict what events in life may occur as time passes.
Answer:
Based on the lines, the two interacting central ideas of the poem are:
B. Events happen in life regardless and often contrary to one's attempts at prediction, and we cannot stop troubles but instead just protect ourselves.
Explanation:
"Storm Warnings" is a poem by Adrienne Rich in which the speaker analyzes how little we can do in terms of predicting and changing the outcome of things. She has instruments to help her see time and weather, but she "know[s] better than the instrument." She did not need a weather glass to know a storm was coming. Also, the weather glass may warn her, but it cannot do anything to protect her. She must protect herself.
The same idea can be extended to life in general. Having a clock does not mean we are masters of time. Life events will come, independently of how well we can foresee them, and there is not much we can do to stop them. All we can do is protect ourselves: ". . . the wind will rise, / We can only close the shutters."
With that in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option.
