The firs three lines of "The Taxi" are:

When I go away from you  

The world beats dead  

Like a slackened drum.

Answer: B) Apostrophe and simile.

Explanation: an apostrophe is a figure of speech that consists in talking to someone who is not present or is dead, or to an inanimate object. A simile is also a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as." The given lines of the poem "The Taxi" are an example of an apostrophe because the speaker is listening to the world (an inanimate object), and also of a simile that compares the world to a drum.

Discussion Topic Discuss what seems to be the most challenging part of the final, trying-to-get-published" process. Is it writin
blondinia [14]

Answer and Explanation:

The letter and presentation is the most challenging part of the publishing process, because that letter needs to convince the editorial team that the work you wrote has potential. This is because it is in the cover letter that the writer must show the summary of the story, the story as a writer and the relevance of the work in the current market, in relation to the target audience, sales and other elements that are not included in the synopsis.

Obviously, the work can be rejected by the publisher and although this is something sad and discouraging for the writer, there are ways to overcome this moment. Many writers indicate that new writers use rejection to improve their written history, keeping in mind that this is not the right time for publication, thinking positively and believing that the publication will arrive at the right time.
