Read this excerpt from paragraph 7 of “Sixteen” by Maureen Daly and answer the question. You know, to start to skate at a crowde

d rink is like jumping on a moving merry-go-round. Once in, I went all right. At least, after I found out exactly where the rough ice was. It was “round, round, jump the rut, round, round, jump the rut, round, round - .” What is the main effect of the author's use of the figurative language? The rhythmic repeated pattern mimics and enhances the movement of the narrator on the ice. The image of the merry-go-round makes an exaggerated comparison of the circular pattern of the narrator moving on the bumpy ice. The narrator compares the difficulty of entering the ice on skates to jumping on a moving merry-go-round. The description of the ice uses a less offensive term than other words the narrator might have chosen.
