This passage from Nectar in a Sieve uses both personification and a simile. A simile is a comparison made between two things using the word 'like' or 'as'. In the excerpt, fear is compared to "black flying ants after a storm" using the word 'like'. Personification is when an inanimate object is given human like qualities, such as breathing, feeling, talking, etc. This is also present in the passage because the narrator has transformed fear into a tangible object by comparing it to the black flying ants. Both personification and similes are forms of figurative language, and both can have powerful affects on the way the audience views the story.
People's loyalties are affected by hardships in
many ways. The actual test of loyalty is when going through hardships. In hard
times when it becomes difficult to take care of even yourself that is the time
when true nature of people is revealed. For example when you marry someone both
make promises to stay together in hardships but then in those hard times someone
cheats on other or if one is going through tough time the other might break the
vows just because he/she cannot go through that phase with their partner. <span>

certain situation which by nature they detest and would never do. </span></span>
