Carolyn is writing a report about how the Wright brothers reacted when they achieved the first real flight in a plane. Which information from “Wilbur and Orville: Men with Wings” could be integrated with the information from “The Inventive Wright Brothers” to achieve this?

A “Bishop Wright looked up from the slip of yellow paper that had just been delivered to him. He was smiling. ‘It’s from Orville,' he said. ‘They flew their airplane. It says here that they made four flights in it!’”

B “Will grinned at them as they puffed across the dune and crowded around him. ‘I’m just fine,’ he said. ‘And, Orv, we did it! I just checked the watch. I was up fifty-nine seconds, and’—he looked back at the starting track—'covered something more than eight hundred feet!’”

C “‘Which of the Wright brothers,’ people sometimes ask, ‘was more responsible for inventing the airplane?’ The brothers would have laughed at such a question. For the answer is: one was as responsible as the other!”

D “After they had their plane built, they decided to take it to Kitty Hawk to test it. ‘The winds there are usually steady at this time of year,’ they said. 'And besides—the sand is soft, if we should have an accident!’”

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
