The extended simile in the passage is: As when a circling wall the builder forms, Of strength defensive against wind and storms, Compacted stones the thickening work compose, and round him wide the rising structure grows.


A simile is a figure of speech that compares one thing from another thing of a different kind. It adds meaning to the text because it emphasizes the:


a. Strength of the wall - which is likened to being a barrier that can be used as protection from wind and storms.


b. Size of the structure - which was built with hours of hard work and construction materials that can withstand such great forces of war.

Okay. So, because the exponent is an odd number, the answer will be negative and "x" will be a negative number. If you know about cubic units, you can see that -6³ is equivalent to -216. -6 * -6 * -6 is -216. x = -6.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Bringing in emotions.

Explanation:

Maria has an emotional connection to car accidents that prevents her from listening effectively.

According to an article on Bright Hub Project Management, "Emotions erect barriers to effective communication. A listener's senses are not likely to be functioning at their optimum level when he or she is angry. Likewise, it is not possible to understand or appreciate what the speaker is saying if the listener is excessively sad."

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!
pickupchik [31]

I believe from what I see that every sentence has been turned from present tense to past tense. One example could be Number 5- Instead of, 'Peter is going to take the package later.", it could be in past tense, as in Peter already took the package- "Later, Peter took the package."

Hope this helped. Let me know if you have any more questions!
