Here, the word dote probably means 4. cherish. It is an old word which means deep and uncritical adoration for something.

The right answer is "3. feel affection for"

The word "doat" means an intense admiration for something or someone. In this case, the text, when using the sentence "... I doated on this little toy .." is the same as saying "I felt a great affection for this toy."

HELP ME PLEASE AND THANK YOU
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1. He looked solid like an oar, whereas Jesse...well, he was like water, thin and quick."  Simile

2. "The first week of August was reasserting itself after a good night's sleep." Personification

3. "A dragonfly, a brilliant blue jewel, darted up and paused over the lily pads, then swung up and away." Metaphor

4. "Now, remembering the visits of the night before, she smiled-and found that she loved them, this most peculiar family." Not figurative language

5. "I wanted to, heaven knows. But Winnie, how'd it have been if I had?" Idiom

Explanation:

Figurative languages are words used in ways that do not portray their regular meaning in order to make sentences clearer and more meaningful to the reader.

  • Simile is the direct comparison of objects that are completely different but have similarities. In the first sentence, the pronoun, "He" was directly compared to an oar.
  • Personification is the assignment of the attributes of non-living things to living things. The month of August was presented as a person that could reassert itself and also have a good night rest.
  • A metaphor is the indirect comparison of objects. In the third sentence, the dragonfly was indirectly compared to a brilliant blue jewel.
  • An idiom is a word whose meaning cannot be deduced from its regular usage. The idiom "heaven knows," symbolizes the truthfulness of what the speaker was saying.
