Argument in George Orwell’s “Politics and the English Language”

Question 3 • (OC27) ENG 4-1001400-S2-Shannon-D'Aquino

What is the effect of using imagery to describe the "all-embracing sky”?

Answer
A
It uses a metaphor to directly compare the sky to the man of riches.
B
It allows readers to remember and “feel” for a moment what an embrace feels like.
C
It shows readers that the author is skilled in using figurative language.

Explanation

Calling the sky “all-embracing” gives it the feeling of arms wrapping around someone. This imagery helps readers picture and briefly feel the sensation of being embraced; it does not directly compare the sky to a rich man.
