Select the two correct answers. What are two ways that the author uses rhetorical devices to advance her purpose?
She uses an ethical appeal when she says, "Such things as we cannot give away, and have
not the courage to destroy, we stack in the attic..."
She uses figurative language when she says, "But to some of us a day comes when we
begin to grow weary of things."
She uses parallelism when she says, "Our books are a burden to us, our pictures have
destroyed every restful wall space, our china is a care..."
She uses antithesis when she says, "we do not possess them; they possess us."
She uses a logical appeal when she says, "they lie huddled in dim and dusty heaps,
removed from our sight, to be sure, yet still faintly importunate."

i think the answer is d.

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.
