Bonds are another type of investment. When you purchase a bond, you’re basically lending your money to a business or to a government. As compensation for lending them your money, you earn interest on it. That means that you’ll get your money back plus a small percentage of the bond’s original amount. Because most bonds are virtually guaranteed, they’re considered a safe investment. You buy it, and then after a number of years, you trade it in for more money than it cost you originally. But because bonds are low risk, you won’t make a whole lot of money from them. Bonds offer a way to make a little bit more money than just putting your money in a savings account, but they also tie your money up for the duration of the bond. If you take your money out sooner than the maturity date, you’ll be penalized, and you’ll end up losing money. Which of these best describes a bond?

A
low risk, low reward

B
high risk, high reward

C
a diversified investment

D
a savings account

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
