Which is an example of a metaphor? *
O "Can you like of Paris, love?"
O "Go girl, seek happy nights to happy days."
O "Why, he's a man of wax."
O "The fish lives in the sea, and 'tis much pride."

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

"Why, he's a man of wax."

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

In English literature, metaphor is an implied comparison without the use of the word as or like. It involves creating a direct similarity between two words or things.

Hence, an example of a metaphor is "Why, he's a man of wax." because it simply means that he's being compared to an ideal man that serves as an inspiration to an artist and be sculpted using a wax.

Read the excerpt below. Write a summary of the setting. Your summary should include the three elements of setting and textual evidence.
The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky

Written by Stephen Crane


The great Pullman (a Pullman is a term for a luxury railway car) was whirling onward with such dignity of motion that a glance from the window seemed simply to prove that the plains of Texas were pouring eastward. Vast flats of green grass, dull-hued spaces of mesquite and cactus, little groups of frame houses, woods of light and tender trees, all were sweeping into the east, sweeping over the horizon, a precipice. A newly married pair had boarded this coach at San Antonio. The man's face was reddened from many days in the wind and sun, and a direct result of his new black clothes was that his brick-colored hands were constantly performing in a most conscious fashion. From time to time he looked down respectfully at his attire. He sat with a hand on each knee, like a man waiting in a barber's shop. The glances he devoted to other passengers were furtive and shy. The bride was not pretty, nor was she very young. She wore a dress of blue cashmere, with small reservations of velvet here and there and with steel buttons abounding. She continually twisted her head to regard her puff sleeves, very stiff, straight, and high. They embarrassed her. It was quite apparent that she had cooked, and that she expected to cook, dutifully. The blushes caused by the careless scrutiny of some passengers as she had entered the car were strange to see upon this plain, under-class countenance, which was drawn in placid, almost emotionless lines. They were evidently very happy. "Ever been in a parlor-car before?" he asked, smiling with delight. "No," she answered, "I never was. It's fine, ain't it?" "Great! And then after a while we'll go forward to the diner and get a big layout. Finest meal in the world. Charge a dollar."

Which sentence should replace sentence 5 to create a more effective

The 383 gray wolves are a part of Yellowstone National Park
and therefore a part of the world.

For that reason alone, the gray wolves in Wyoming-their
numbers have now swelled to 383-should be protected
against being hunted to extinction again.

Therefore, the 383 gray wolves now living in and around
Yellowstone should be left alone to spread south to Colorado
and west to Idaho and north into Montana.

Many reasons support letting the 383 gray wolves stay in and
around the Yellowstone area, and I will discuss some of them.

Answers

Gray wolves disappeared from the Yellow Stone National Park, because when the National Park was built during the early 1800s, 1872 to be exact, Gray wolves were not protected by the park itself, there were no laws to protect these species, which is why hunters, who come across the park, hunts these gray wolves until their population decreased.

A Tempest

An awful tempest mashed the air,

The clouds were gaunt and few;

A black, as of a spectre’s1

Hid heaven and earth from view.

The creatures chuckled on the roofs

And whistled in the air,

And shook their fists and gnashed their teeth.

And swung their frenzied hair.

The morning lit, the birds arose;

The monster’s faded eyes

Turned slowly to his native coast,

And peace was Paradise!

Read the paragraph from the text and the directions that follow.

But, when all the girls in town are seeking to steal your husband, what are you going to do about it, if you are a woman of forty-five with a heaviness around the hips and a disinclination to learn the camel walk? Nor can you get the poachers off the scent by crossing the trail with an eligible bachelor. Logically, the young things should have enough sense to ignore a preempted husband and attend to the serious business of getting themselves husbands. But they haven’t. They seem to prefer the husbands of the other women. And curiously, the more they engage in this exotic sport of poaching, the less keen they become about owning a property for somebody else to poach on.

According to the author, what is one reason that flappers steal older women’s husbands? Answer choices for the above question

1: All flappers prefer men who are married.

2: There are not enough single men available.

3: All flappers want to be married themselves.

4: There are no eligible bachelors who prefer flappers

Answers

Answer: Hi there! My best guess for this question would be 1: All flappers prefer men who are married.

Explanation: Every other answer just doesn't feel right to me for some reason...?

With 2, the speaker never said that there were not enough single men available for flappers. In fact, they were leaving to go FOR the flappers since they were "more beautiful" than their wide-hipped and grey wives, which is why 4 makes no sense to me.

Lastly, choice 3 is just really confusing to me, so I'd rather not choose it for the sake of misinterpreting it...

Please feel free to disagree with my answer. I hope that this helps out in some way. :)
