ENG4C- English, Grade 12 College Preparation Unit One: Short Story & Non Fiction.

Rhetorical Device A tool that a writer uses to make his or her writing more distinct and appealing to the reader.

Anaphora form of repetition repetition of the same word or group of words at the beginning of several sentences and sometimes within several sentences **A writer will use anaphora to emphasize an idea, and also because humans naturally respond to the rhythm of repetition** Example: “Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine."

Parallel Structure can be like anaphora used within one sentence to create a balancing effect requires using the same pattern of words to show that two or more ideas have the same level of importance ** The usual way to join parallel structures is with the use of coordinating conjunctions (and, or, but)**

Parallel Structure Example: She enjoys reading and writing poetry. (We know she reads poetry and writes poetry.) Unbalanced Structure: She enjoys reading and to write poetry. (We know she reads (but what??) and writes poetry.)

Metaphor a form of comparison used to describe something show how two things that are unalike in most ways are similar in one important way a writer will use metaphors to make his or her piece more clear, entertaining, and interesting. **Unlike similes that use the words “as” or “like” to make a comparison, metaphors state that something is something else**

Metaphor Example: His words are poetry. Comparison Using Simile: His words are like poetry.

Allusion a brief mention of, or reference to, a historical, geographical, literary, mythological, or Biblical event, person, place, or thing

Allusion Example: The software included a Trojan Horse. (Allusion to the Trojan Horse from Greek Mythology). Plan ahead. It was not raining when Noah built the Ark. (Allusion to the biblical story of Noah’s Ark).
