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.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The answer is false.

Explanation:

In this case, a timeline is a graphic organizer. First of all, it is necessary to gather the information, and after summarizing it, the person in charge of the timeline should use this date to graphically show or introduce the relevant information.
