D, The similie describes how hot the spear was with language that gives the reader a clear visual. The words, white-hot and sizzling tell the reader the tempurature of the weapon.

Answer:

how hot the spear actually is.

Explanation:

In this simile, Homer is comparing something familiar, which is the way that an iron arm is made by molding it and then inserting it into a cold tub of water, with something unfamiliar to the reader (this is the basic functioning of the Homeric simile), which is how they attacked the cyclops with a spike that was heated so that, when it entered the Cyclops’ eyeball, the spear hissed just like hot iron does as it enters a cold tub of water.

How does John's father change from the start of "Water Never Hurt a Man" to the time they arrive at the locks?
Kipish [7]

John's father became more respectable, especially for John, who recognized his father's ability to handle work.

Therefore, the second answer option is the correct answer.

We can reach this conclusion because:

  • "Water Never Hurt a Man," tells the story of John and his journey into becoming a grown man.
  • This journey is painful and requires John to mature very quickly.
  • On this journey, John shows the need to face his fears and attitudes.
  • This need is also related to how John sees his father, who has some fear and relationship difficulties.
  • But after observing the father's resourcefulness at work and the way the father deals with the problems that arise, John has a greater understanding of the father and begins to see him more respectably and admirably way.

In this case, we can see that "Water Never Hurt a Man" gives us a very important message about how we often misperceive people because we don't understand them.
