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.

Answer:

a) She sees Mrs. Flowers as larger than life.

Explanation:

Marguerite was the young girl in Maya Angelou's <em>I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings</em>, which is an autobiographical account of her life. Marguerite learns from the women in her life on how to fully accept her identity as a black woman while at the same time making a life of her own. One of these women is Mrs. Bertha Flowers.

The very first description of Mrs. Flowers says it all for us. Maya states Mrs. Flowers <em>"had the grace of control to appear warm in the coldest weather, and on the Arkansas summer days it seemed she had a private breeze which swirled around, cooling her"</em>. As we read along, Maya again declared that <em>" she was one of the few gentlewomen I have ever known, and has remained throughout my life the measure of what a human being can be"</em>. These statements show how our narrator is in owe of the woman.

Explanation:

Dyslexia impacts a child's social life as well as his or her ability to read. According to Scott Bezsylko, executive director of Winston Preparatory School, which specialises in teaching children with learning disabilities, “a dyslexic individual who has word-finding issues might have trouble with their expressive language.” “This has a social impact, in addition to your reading and writing challenges, that makes you feel bad about yourself.”

Dyslexia may present itself at an early age, and preschool assessments look at a child's understanding of the sounds that make up words, as well as their ability to retrieve words. However, Matthew Cruger, PhD, director of the Child Mind Institute's Learning and Development Center, recommends waiting until children are at least six years old and have received some formal reading instruction before seeking a formal test.
