A. a large fish that has seventeen legs
B. a sales clerk who behaves rudely
C. a person who can speak several languages
D. an ancient house that makes creaky noises

Respuesta :

Answer:

D). An ancient house that makes creaky noises

Explanation:

Dissonance is defined as the interference in the rhythm or harmonic sound of a verse. This interruption/interference is deliberately inserted into a work to give the muddling, surprising, or abrupt effect. The last sentence displays dissonance as the 'creaky noises' give a deliberate disturbing effect that would help in evoking the feelings of suspense and surprise among the audience. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

Dissonance is a representation of contradictory information. This means that there is a disagreement in what is portrayed. The description that best represents dissonance is;

  • A. A large fish that has seventeen legs

There is some form of dissonance in this statement. It is unusual to find a fish that has legs. In fact, it is quite impossible to find such a thing.

So, there is a disagreement or dissonance in this idea that is presented by the speaker.

The other situations that are described are things that can actually happen. So, option A is correct.
