A simile is a comparison between two things using like or as. In this simile the mother is talking about how her daughter played the saxophone. She is comparing the first sounds her daughter played to a smoke detector. When looking for similes, always look for the word like or as. Without one of these, there is no simile.

Read the following passage and answer the question. The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear
Inessa05 [86]

The phrase which must be revised to create parallel structure is, 'To not walk near the quicksand.'

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Parallel structure is a literary device which is often used by writers and poets to create a smooth flow in writing. In parallel structure, same pattern of words are being used to indicate that all the ideas contains the same level of importance.

In the sentence, ‘The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear moccasins, and to not walk near the quicksand’ if we rephrase the last line after conjunction, then the sentence will become a parallel structure.

‘To not walk near the quicksand’ should be rephrased as ‘that he should not walk near the quicksand.’ So the sentence would be ‘The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear moccasins, and that he should not walk near the quicksand.’

umka21 [38]

The phrase "lily of a man" as it is used in line 3 of Gary Soto's poem most closely means an anxious weakling, as is said in option C and explained below.

To find the answer, we used our knowledge of context clues.

<h3>What are context clues?</h3>

Context clues are any words or phrases that help us figure out the meaning or connotation of other words or phrases in the same context. Here, we need to understand the meaning of "lily of a man."

The context clues used for that is "A coward I am not," the phrase that comes immediately before "lily of a man." Since both phrases complete each other, we can assume they have similar meanings.

Therefore, we can safely conclude the speaker is saying that he is not an anxious weakling, not a coward. The best answer in this case is option C.
