Read this excerpt from a passage. "In the United States, freedom of speech is protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution. There have always been limits to
this freedom. No one, for example, has the right to falsely shout 'Fire!' in a movie theater. Newspapers do not have the right to print lies
about people. These limits to freedom of speech are universally agreed upon and are not considered censorship. Censorship is the
suppression or removal of words, images, and ideas because they are thought to be offensive or inappropriate."

a, overstatement is the answer

my best guess would be: d allusion

makes the most sense

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.
