read the following passage:
returning from vietnam, we were indeed given a parade.
crowds of screaming people waving signs - not just on
one road, one day. no, they were everywhere. every day.
on the streets, on the television, on the radio. a hot, angry
tangle of shaking fists and ugly words that threatened us
like a monster with a hundred heads. our country had
chewed us up and spit us out, and now we were being
treated as if it were our fault.
what is one way the author's use of language contributes to the tone of this
passage?
o
a. the use of figurative language creates a feeling of resentment.
o
b. the parallelism draws attention to the confusion of those
returning.
o
c. the phrase "hot, angry tangle" is used sarcastically to create irony.
