It is likely that Paine signed his pamphlets under the name "Common Sense" in order to highlight the fact that he considered those truths to be self-evident and extremely obvious. He believed that any reasonable person would support the arguments he outlined in his work. Moreover, it was an inclusive way to address Americans, as it implied that any person, no matter how uneducated about politics, would be able to see the logic of independence.

What happens on pages 56-89 of old man and the sea?
Marrrta [24]

Answer: From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.

Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat . . . [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men (and animals) will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.

The 10 similes are the following:

  1. My head felt like a balloon after our roller-coaster ride.
  2. She has lips as rose petals.
  3. His eyes are like two bright stars.
  4. This cake is like a rock!
  5. She said her children are like little tornadoes when they play together.
  6. Mona is as a delicate flower.

  8. Anna swims like a fish, so I am sure she will win the competition.
  9. That poor boy was innocent as a lamb.
  10. My ex was always acting like a queen.

  1. Her veiny hands were two white spiders when she reached out.
  2. My husband is a lion when someone messes with our kids.
  3. Her hair was a brown ocean of endless waves.
  4. After so many mosquito bites, her legs were constellations.

<h3>What is the difference between simile and metaphor?</h3>

Both simile and metaphors are types of figurative language that consist of comparing different things. The purpose is to show, with a colorful language, that one thing has certain characteristics that belong to another thing.

The difference between a simile and a metaphor is that the simile relies on the use of words such as "like" and "as", whereas the metaphor does not. For example, suppose you want to say someone has soft skin. You can compare it to cotton using either a simile or a metaphor:

  • Simile: She has skin like cotton.
  • Metaphor: He skin is cotton.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answers provided above are correct.
