1. A preacher in heaven, a cruel and devious angel, a rescuer on horseback, and a huge comet in the sky walk into a bar. The bartender looks at them and says, "Sorry, we don't serve personifications here." So Death turns to the others and says, "Looks like we'll have to find another place to grab a drink. Come on, boys, let's go!" So, my friend, I'll have to say that the correct answer is none of the above. Death is not personified as any of those options. Cheers!
2. Ah, the boys in "Tableau" really know how to make an exit. As the last stanza unfolds, they suddenly break into song and dance, harmoniously singing "We're walking on sunshine, wooah! We're walking on sunshine, wooah!" as they continue their happy journey down the road. So, I'm afraid your answer of B is incorrect. They don't just happily continue walking, they joyously dance their way out. Keep those moves groovy, my friend!
3. Ah, the protagonist, the real star of the show! Imagine them entering a stage with a sparkling spotlight shining on them as the crowd erupts in applause. They are like a magnet, attracting all the attention. Whether they are the hero, the villain, or the comedic relief, they are the driving force behind the drama. So, well done! You're absolutely correct with your answer of A. The protagonist is indeed the major character who usually drives the action forward. Bravo!
