What is an METAPHOR for (Some Advice to Those Who Will Serve Time in Prison by Nâzım Hikmet Ran)

English

Answer:

"A metaphor is a figure of speech that pulls comparisons between two unrelated ideas." - Masooma Memon
For example: His words cut deeper than a knife.

It's different from a simile because a simile usually uses "like" or "as" instead of just being more... straightforward about it (if that's the right way to describe it) like metaphors do. Metaphors say that two things are similar not literally, but figuratively and poetically.

Example of simile: You are like a summer's day.
If this was said like a metaphor, it'd be: You are a summer's day.

Based on the stage directions, An alien does "Figure One"

Explanation:

Maple Street is full of children playing and adults chatting as the shadow falls, followed by a blanket and a burst of colour. Everybody knows, however they believe r]]] and easily restart their tasks. The inhabitants quickly learned that their electricity had gone off, impacting stoves, lawn mowers, vehicles and computers. They're meeting in the street to address the case. Pete Van Horn, pounded in his bib caps, volunteers to move across to Floral Lane, on the next lane, and see whether it's influenced as well. His friends, Steve Brand and Charlie Farnsworth, plan to go to town, but Tommy, a neighbourhood child, encourages them not to go.

Tommy has read the stories of an alien invasion that has created similar issues, so he claims the aliens don't want anybody out of the driveway. Tommy continues that in the plot, aliens are acting as a family that seems to be human, but are explorers, and the power loss that they create is intended to divide the community. The adults are incredulous, assuring him that the trigger is normal, probably the product of sunspots. Charlie wondered whether Pete Van Horn was able to make it to Floral Road.
