~Create a poem that uses an extended metaphor comparing the internet to life

English
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

We live in a huge, transparent circle,

where our search never ends,

we use something we don't understand,

just to be distant of other man.

Our blue circle continues to grow,

it captivates our dreams, needs and hope,

it sends us away from our beloved one,

the circle is tightening us into the prison around us.

The circle floats around the world,

it caches people whose minds aren't full,

full of imagination, passion and desire,

by making us slaves of a digital empire.

This circle will never blow,

it will continue to flow and flow,

until people forget how to communicate,

and they become distant, far away from our fate.

Explanation:

In this poem, the circle refers to the Internet, as it plays an important role in young people's lives and it captures them with its content. They aren't aware of themselves, they start to lose the touch with reality, as they are drowning in that immense, transparent circle. The author used a circle as an extended metaphor to show the greatness of the internet community and its impact on our lives, by describing how this process repeats and involves the younger generations.

Answer:

criticism and detest.

Explanation:

Miss Dulcie treated Annie John with criticism and detest. Annei says that she was treated like a servant who was made to sweep the floor instead of sewing. She also says that Miss Dulcie would always criticize her even though she did exactly what she wanted her to do.

By “the dustheap of my life", the narrator means that she is putting all her anguish over Miss Dulcie behind the past and moving forward in life. "Dustheap of life" is being referred to as bad things that happens in our life which we need to let go.

Angerous Game."
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A certain cool-headedness had come to him;

[D]oggedly he swam in that direction, swimming with slow, deliberate strokes, conserving his strength.

Explanation:

These details 'a certain..him', '[D]oggedly...strength' from the narration display that Rainsford sensible and rational person who has the ability to do well in dangerous moments. <u>The qualities of being 'cool-headed', 'swimming with the slow', and the ability to 'conserve his strength through deliberate strokes' clearly reflect that he is a calm and composed individual who can conquer the dangers and difficulties</u> coming his way through his astute and rationality. The phrases 'he wrestled with all his power', 'he struck out with strong strokes', 'struggled up to the surface and tried to cry out' substantiate the above claim.

"a modest proposal" what does the title suggest
DedPeter [7]
It suggests a satirical and simple proposal to the problem starving Ireland faced: the lack of food to feed the people.

Of course, the entire modest proposal was that parents eat and sell their children as food and the idea was meant as satire, meaning to be considered with a grain of salt and not seriously (kind of like a really dark joke).

''Modest'' means that the proposal was obvious and simple in the eyes of the author Jonathan Swift but not necessarily in the eyes of others. ''Proposal'' means the general answer to the problem Swift was answering.

Hope this helps! :)
