It appears that in aristocratic society, a women's success is through her offspring. In this passage, she beings her son which is expected to be the center of attention. Other's admire him, yet he's shy and his presence wasn't as effective as the mother had thought. The author hints at this mentioning that people couldn't figure out who the son takes after, his mother or father...possibly implying that he was reserved instead of being outgoing as a child is expected to be.

For 5 points, this is all I'm going to write. You can fill in the rest to complete 150 words.

Through the stories of love and frustration and the daily life of the Dashwood sisters, Jane Austen criticizes the society of her time in a rather subtle way. Bearing in mind that women could not work at that time and that the only way to get what was considered success came through marriage and motherhood. In this excerpt, Austen shows how the social conversation of women at that time was about their children, because that was the only success and social ascension that women could aim for.

A simile is a figule of speech that compares two unlike
BARSIC [14]

Answer and Explanation:

This is the poem "Teenagers" by Pat Mora:

One day they disappear

into their rooms.

Doors and lips shut

and we become strangers

in our own home.

I pace the hall, hear whispers,

a code I knew but can't remember,

mouthed by mouths I taught to speak.

Years later the door opens.

I see faces I once held,

open as sunflowers in my hands. I see

familiar skin now stretched on long bodies

that move past me

glowing almost like pearls.

As was described in the question, a simile compares two different things with the help of "as" or "like". The purpose is to attribute a characteristic of one of those things to the other.

<u>In the poem, the speaker is using a simile when she says, "open as sunflowers in my hands." Her children are now big, much bigger than she could have expected them to become in just a few years. It's as if she is surprised by the fact that they are no longer babies. They are grown, different, just like a flower is when it opens, when it ceases being just a bud.</u>
