PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE HELPPPPPPPPPPP

<h2>Please mark me brainliest because I worked hard on this and it took me almost 15 mins, I gave a deep explanation, and also I was the first person to answer lol. :)</h2>

Answer:

the answer is the second one. (ugly : pretty : ::tall :short)

Explanation:

Definition of Analogy- a comparison between two things, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification.

Here is an example sentence- "an analogy between the workings of nature and those of human societies"

The reason why I chose the second answer is because it is comparing beauty/society. Like for example, "alissa is tall, but sam is short" or "Emily is ugly, but Jessica is pretty". These are all comparisons.

I didn't choose the first answer (dog : cat :: cat : mouse) because it is just saying opposites and it is not comparing, it is naming animals.

I didn't choose the third one (brush: comb :: broom: sweep) because, again, they are only naming objects.

I didn't choose the fourth one (yellow : bright :: one : little) because its not comparing and its just naming random things that don't even go together lol

In at least 150 words words, define foreshadowing and provide an example of it from Oedipus the King.
Grace [21]

Foreshadowing is a literary resource in which the author tells the reader or audience about certain developments in the argument that may occur later in the story. It is mostly used to mentally prepare the reader to process the development of the story.

In Oedipus the King, Sophocles uses foreshadowing to show the reader that horrible things will happen since Oedipus fulfilled his prophecy (without knowing it) by killing his father and marrying his mother. The character of Teresias, the prophet, is important in the construction of foreshadowing, in addition to the meaning of the name of Oedipus ("swollen foot"). According to the legend, before being adopted, Oedipus suffered injuries to his feet, causing him to swell.
