Like burnt-out torches by sick man's bed <br><br> Which technique is being used
Liono4ka [1.6K]

After doing some online searching, I've found that this question refers to figurative language. It is not an incomplete question, it was just missing the context for people to be able to understand it. Now that I know what it is about, I can safely answer:

Answer:

Simile.

Explanation:

In the phrase "Like burnt-out torches by a sick man's bed" we have something being compared to something else. Even though we don't know what it is, we know it is compared to burnt-out torches.<u> The comparison was made with the help of a support word, "like".</u> Its purpose it to attribute one or more qualities of a burnt-out torch to something else by saying they are similar. <u>Comparisons that use support words are called </u><u>simile.</u> They are a very common figure of speech along with metaphors, with the difference that metaphors also make comparisons, but without using support words.

1. Explain how Gatsby feels about love.
sdas [7]

Answer:

1. Gatsby certainly did love Daisy, and all she represented to him - -success, power, and glamor. She was the unattainable, his Dream. However, Gatsby creates this love for Daisy, just as he creates a fantasy life. She is integral to his dream for success.

number 2 is asking to apply YOUR own life. this one I can't answer.

3. t's about the costs of fantasy—inevitable costs, since our dreams and fantasies are part of who we are. ... (Gatsby, Nick concludes, made the mistake of “living too long with a single dream”; this makes him admirable, but also unwise, even delusional.) A kind of fatigue sets in.

4. However, I inferred you are referring to the article written by Joshua Rothman in the Newyorker entitled "The Serious Superficiality of The Great Gatsby".

5. 1) The American dream  2) Gatsby's love for Daisy

Explanation:

I would highly suggest you look at cliff notes or spark notes. I read this back in high school and The 2 sites were very helpful with answering questions like this! hope this helps.
