Here is your first answer:

Your answer is B imagery!

Reason: That's because it is not similes or metaphors because their not using like or as and their not comparing anything in the sentence its not personification because that has something to to with people having abilities which is not in this sentence and imagery is use to make very discriptive figurative language!

Your answer is B.

Here is your second answer:

Your answer is A onomatopoeia.

Reason: Onomatopoeia is use to describe sounds in this case the engines "purr" is describing the sound in the sentence. Also its not metaphor because its not comparing anything its not personification because it is use for describing humans abilities that are not human like super strength and its not alliteration because it has the same letter or sound in a specific sentence which has nothing to do with this sentence!

Your answer is A.

Here is your third answer:

Your answer is A simile.

Reason: That's because similes are use to compare something using the words like or as. Also its not metaphor because metaphors do compare two objects but they don't use the words like or as its not imagery because is really specific figurative language and it is not use to compare two obje and it is not assonance because that type of figurative language is use mainly in poetry not comparing anything!

Your answer is A.

Here is your fourth answer:

Your answer is C allegory.

Reason: That's because its not atmosphere because that gives feeling mood or tone in a sentence its not irony because that also explants feeling in a specific sentence its allegory because it has feeling from a picture this sentence could be from a picture also explains meaning!

Your answer is C.

Here is your fifth answer:

Your answer is A suspense.

Reason: That's because suspense is a excitement or feeling of wanting to know what is going to happen next in a specific part of a story also its not setting because settings are use to tell where the story is token place its not personification because its use to tell that a human has powers that regular humans don't have its not irony because it tells feeling but the mom is screaming which makesA it suspense and its not resolution because those are use to solve problems!

Your answer is A.

To conclude your answers are...
