Plz ! brainliest if correct! 17. by the term water-vapour, or aqueous vapour, is meant the invisible steam always present in the air. every one is familiar with the fact, that when water is heated it passes into an invisible vapour or gas, which becomes dissolved in the air. a vessel of water, for instance, may be placed on a table in the middle of a room, heated by means of a spirit lamp till it boils, and kept boiling till the water is entirely driven off into vapour or evaporated. the air in the room shows no visible change, though it has had all this water-vapour added to it. but it may be easily made to yield back some of the vapour. let an ice-cold piece of glass, metal, or other solid substance be brought into the room. though perfectly dry before, its surface instantly grows dim and damp. and if it is large and thick enough to require some minutes to get as warm as the air in the room, the dimness or mist on its surface will pass into trickling drops of water. the air is chilled by the cold glass, and gives up some of its moisture. cold air cannot retain so much diffused vapour as warm air, so that the capacity of the air for vapour is regulated by its temperature. does this passage contain compare and contrast organization? if so, where, and what types of signal words and phrases are used? provide more than two reasons for your answer.

"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
