AP English Language and Composition 4.7 Passage Drill

most And here the potential answers Understatement alliteration Metaphor huh

All right Well we need a strong grasp on the

whole passage for this one way Don't have one It

might be a good idea to skim through the past

again with all these options in mind and do it

quickly because these test time yet option d thinks the

speaker is being ironic the whole time Like alanis morissette

number isn't it I want it And you can use

the word wrong so don't follow her lead anyway If

that were so the speaker would be saying the opposite

of what he means to make the point and ironic

speech is sort of a wink wink nudge nudge situation

like a black fly in your chardonnay As faras we

can tell the speaker is saying exactly what he means

We declare this speech irony free answer b says that

speaker uses a lot of a literary ation or words

that begin with the same constant sound If this were

true the speaker's speech might sound like this The quota

status worthy similarly about the violin If you want to

make that quote your facebook status well we won't judge

options He gets it right all sorts of tricks or

favorite For example the whole immortality sunrise infancy bid is

a metaphor with a capital m And as we all

know capitalized metaphors are way better than the ones in 00:02:09.38 --> [endTime] lower case
