Read the passage. His Majesty desired I would take some other opportunity of bringing all the rest of his enemy’s ships into his

ports. And so unmeasurable is the ambition of princes, that he seemed to think of nothing less than reducing the whole empire of Blefuscu into a province and governing it by a viceroy; of destroying the Big-Endian exiles and compelling that people to break the smaller end of their eggs, by which he would remain sole monarch of the whole world. . . .

Oxana [17]

Answer:

2. Simile

1. Thick socks

2. Warmth and comfort

Explanation:

Both simile and metaphor are figures of speech used to compare two things. However, there is a difference. The simile is a more direct comparison than the metaphor. It uses words <em>like </em>and <em>as</em>, while the metaphor omits them, stating that something is something else.

As we can see here, in the fifth line, the word <em>like</em><em> </em>is used: .<em>.. or </em><em>like</em><em> a pair of thick socks... </em>This shows us that the poet is using a simile. He compares his poem to a pair of thick socks, suggesting that it can provide warmth and comfort.

Anni [7]

<span>The central idea of the paragraph is most clearly: hierarchical thinking is rarely accurate. The paragraph states that one’s opinion about subordinates changes as soon as they go higher on hierarchical ladder which is wrong as our position in hierarchy doesn’t always define our work and effort and surely it doesn’t define us as a person. </span>
