Answers

B) He is speaking the words loudly and with great force.

To go at something "with hammer and tongs" is to do something with great vigor and a lot of purpose. So B is the correct answer based on the phrase.

Answer:

The poet used the phrase "went hammer and tongs" most likely to imply that he is speaking the words loudly and with great force.

Explanation:

The meaning of the expression "went hammer and tongs" is that a person does something with great vigor, determination, or vehemence, which matches with the line that says he is speaking loudly and with great force, it seems like a paraphrased sentence with the same context and conveys the same mood and idea.

What category does the following comment fit best in? "The problem with the film is that it is difficult to get past the sloppy editing and amateurish cinematography." authenticity universality subject matter aesthetics

Answers

Answer:

aesthetics

Explanation:

Aesthetics are all about how something looks. So, "sloppy editing and amateurish cinematography" in a movie is exactly what aesthetics are. The aesthetics for the movie look bad.

Authenticity is being real and original. It is being your true self. I don't think the comment is talking about themself, the writer, but more about the movie.

Universality is being true in all forms. The comment for the movie doesn't work the same for other things, such as school or sports. It isn't universal.

Subject matter is about the topic. It is the main idea of the thing being discussed. The comment doesn't focus on the main idea of the movie, bad rather its looks: the editing and cinematography. It doesn't talk about the theme of the movie, the message, the actors, the characters, or the characterization.

Aesthetics are what this comment is about. It's about how the movie looks like.

C) Third-person limited point of view limits the narration to using only such pronouns as "I" and "we".

Answers

Answer: "A"

Explanation: Third-person limited point of view is when the narrator mainly focuses on the thoughts and feelings of one character instead of many characters. on the other hand, third-person omniscient point of view is when the narrator knows what all the characters are thinking and their feelings too.

The correct answer is A because third person limited contains only one character's thoughts, while third person reveals everyone's thoughts.
