Great! Let's walk through the process of arriving at the answers for each question:
1. Which of these is an example of a metaphor in My Forbidden Face?
To identify the metaphor, we need to look for a comparison between two different things that does not use "like" or "as."
Option A: "Latifa releases the canary from the cage." This is not a metaphor, as it is a literal action.
Option B: "Latifa compares the Taliban's oppression to a slow death." This is a metaphor, as it compares the oppression to a slow death without using "like" or "as."
Option C: "Latifa quotes specific laws that the Taliban put in place." This is not a metaphor, as it is a literal action.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. Latifa compares the Taliban's oppression to a slow death.
2. The word lucid means "clear." Based on your knowledge of the suffix -ate, what is the most likely meaning of the word elucidate?
To determine the meaning of "elucidate," we need to consider the meaning of the base word "lucid" and the effect of the suffix "-ate."
The base word "lucid" means "clear." The suffix "-ate" is often used to change a noun or an adjective into a verb.
Option A: "Clear or transparent." This option aligns with the meaning of "lucid" but does not incorporate the effect of the suffix "-ate."
Option B: "Something that is clear." This option only partially captures the meaning of the word but does not incorporate the effect of the suffix "-ate."
Option C: "To make something clear." This option combines the meaning of "clear" from the base word with the effect of the suffix "-ate" to form a verb meaning "to make something clear."
Therefore, the correct answer is C. To make something clear.
3. Which of the sentences below uses the word "turned" as a linking verb?
To determine whether "turned" is functioning as a linking verb, we need to evaluate how it connects the subject to the predicate.
Option A: "The milk turned sour after sitting out on the counter overnight." In this sentence, "turned" connects the subject "milk" to the predicate "sour," describing a state of being rather than an action.
Option B: "She turned the doorknob but the door was locked." In this sentence, "turned" is used as an action verb, describing the physical act of turning the doorknob.
Option C: "Have you turned in your writing assignment yet?" In this sentence, "turned" is used as a transitive verb, describing the action of submitting the writing assignment.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. The milk turned sour after sitting out on the counter overnight.
