GREYUIT [131]2 years ago
7 0

We can actually deduce here that the excerpt from "Rikk-Tikki-Tavi" that is NOT an example of a simile is:  It is the hardest thing in the world to frighten a mongoose, because he is eaten up from nose to tall with curiosity.

<h3>What is simile?</h3>

Simile is actually known as the figure of speech or figurative language which is used to compare two thins with the use of "as" or "like". Simile is used to compare things that are dissimilar but similar in a way.

We see here that simile is different from metaphor. Metaphor is used to compare things too but doesn't make use of "as" or "like".

The selected answer above doesn't have "as" or "like" in its sentence whereas others have. That is why it is the excerpt that is NOT an example of a simile.

In the book Othello, Shakespeare begins the play with two secret acts. Explain each deception and the effect that these deceptio
amm1812
In the opening scene of Othello, two secret acts had been performed.

1. Iago, an officer of low ranks in the Venetian army, and Roderigo, madly in love with Desdemona, are conversing about both their hatred towards Othello. Iago, because of how Othello promoted Cassio to become a lieutenant instead of giving him the position, and Roderigo because of Othello's marriage to Desdemona and how they eloped.

2. Othello and Desdemona have eloped, leaving Brabantio clueless at first and outraged when he found out.

The theme of deception had clearly been brought up, with these two secret acts, and a few other underlying factors to be considered, including:

1. Roderigo feeling deceived by Iago. The former had asked the latter to put him in good favor with Desdemona, in order for her to love him, but clearly this did not take place.

2. Brabantio feeling deceived by his daughter for running away with Othello, and not asking for his permission regarding the matter.

3. Iago confessing that he merely pretended to adore Othello when in fact, he didn't.

These deceptions supercharged the tone of deceit, jealousy, etc. in the play, leaving the reader or the audience cynical and suspicious about everything. This builds up the gravity of the situation the characters are undergoing.

Anika [276]

Answer:

a recent government report comparing the results of alternative and contemporary medicine for a specified disease

Explanation:

A social media report and an anonymous article are both unreliable. The 2003 study is outdated, meaning the government report is most factual and reliable for research.
