Answer:

A. The pen is mightier than the sword.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, metonymy, etc.

Metonymy was derived from the Greek word "metōnymía" which simply means change of name. It can be defined as a figurative language in which an object, thing, concept, or idea is referred to by the name of another that is closely related or associated with it. Thus, it involves substituting an object, thing, concept, or idea with a linked term having a close association.

A common example of metonymy is the pen is mightier than the sword.

Answer:

A. the pen is mightier than the sword, took the test :)

Explanation:

Read the excerpt below:

As of now, if a child is brought into the country illegally, there is no method for becoming a
documented resident. Congress should consider giving undocumented students an opportunity
to gain legal status by passing the DREAM act, a bill that would provide certain illegal students
who graduate from US high schools, who are of good moral character, and who arrived in the
U.S. as minors, the opportunity to earn permanent residency. It was introduced in the United States Senate, and the United States House of Representatives on March 26, 2009. Passing
the DREAM Act would encourage undocumented students to achieve in school and become
helpful members of our society. This opportunity for education would allow them to obtain
good jobs and salaries and thus get off the welfare system and stay out of crime.

The purpose of this passage is ...*

•To explain how the DREAM act impacts undocumented children in the United States.

•To explain how the DREAM act was introduced in Congress.

•To argue that the DREAM act would ultimately help undocumented students become productive members of society.

•To argue that the DREAM act would solve the immigration issues our country experiences.

Farmers have been growing genetically engineered (GE) sugar beets since 2008. The beets, developed via biotechnology, are genetically boosted to withstand sprayings of a common herbicide that is otherwise fatal to both crop and weeds. Some organic farmers fear that these plants could be harmful. Pollen from the GE beets could contaminate organic sugar beets, irrevocably altering their genetic content. Environmentalists are concerned that herbicide-resistant weeds could develop. A 2010 request for an injunction against growing the GE beets, however, was rejected by a federal judge. The judge ruled that issuing an order so late in the beets' growing season would result in substantial economic damage.
