What does this mean "Machine guns looked like praying mantises to me"?

1 answer:

7 0

Its a simile that this person is trying to explain to the reader, the person who wrote this referring to the fact that the guns looked like a small creature, this states that the fact that the guns looked like tiny insects, the reader has to read on to find out what the author is trying to explain to the reader.
You need to read on or if no more text to read, all you can say is that the author says that machine guns looks like tiny insects from their perspective.

Hope this helps!

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The sentence that most reflects Frankenstein's creature's feelings regarding the reaction of people around him is the following: "The monster asks Frankenstein to create a companion creature for him, so he won’t feel so lonely in the world." By the time the crature requests that a companion be created for him, he has experienced rejection by the family in the cottage, to whom he had been kind, as well as that of his own creator; he knows that only another creature like himself will be capable of accepting him.

How can we tell Banquo is distrustful of the witches?

lesya [120]

Answer:

Banquo is skeptical of the Witches’ intentions and remains unconvinced of the Witches’ prophecy. Banquo warns Macbeth that “instruments of darkness” often tell half-truths “to win us to our harm” (1.3.125–126). While the Witches have prophesied great futures for both Macbeth and Banquo, Banquo is less inspired and intrigued than Macbeth and would rather leave the matter safely alone.
