Metaphor

English
1 answer:
Yanka [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Metaphor is the literary device in which two disconnected/different things are compared. Simile is also a comparison between two disconnected things, but simile uses words such as "like" or "as", while metaphor simple states that "one thing is another".

"The crest of each of these waves was a hill, from the top of which men surveyed, for a moment, a broad tumultuous expanse, shining and wind-riven." - Metaphor.

"As each wave came, and she [the boat] rose for it, she seemed like a horse making at a fence outrageously high." - Simile.

Personification gives human characteristics to objects, animals or ideas.

"If this old fool woman, Fate, cannot do better than this..." - Personification.

Symbolism is when a word is used to symbolize something else. In this example, "uncertainties" represent the waves.

"The open boat is described as 'bobbing along among the universe's uncertainties." - Symbolism.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

A. The narrator thinks Jasper is foolish.

Explanation:

The best that expresses the narrator's viewpoints towards Jasper is that "the narrator thinks Jasper is foolish".

From the excerpt, it is very clear that the narrator thinks Jasper is foolish. One is termed foolish is if he/she refuses to heed to warning. A foolish person is seen to be unwise and definitely lacks wisdom. Jasper displayed that because he was oblivious of the figure he cut out.

His foolishness is seen in his not making proper enquiries about the whereabouts of Thomas.

Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
