Verdich [7]3 years ago

It is suggesting that the rain is coming down very heavily. The rain is a deluge, soaking everything with large, heavy, water-filled droplets quickly falling. The is based off the original idiom "It's raining cats and dogs" to indicate that it is pouring rain. It takes the hyperbole one step farther to add heavier and larger animals to show the amount of rainfall.

Read the lines from the poem “My First Memory (of Librarians).”
Lena [83]

Answer:

C. Explicit details about how the library items are arranged.

Explanation:

As known, 'Explicit' means that whatever was said, it's stated clearly.

Implicit means that a subject was implied, but you still need to use context clues to find the answer.

In this case, it clearly says, "To the left side a card catalog."

'On the right, newspapers are draped over a quilt rack' <em>and </em> "Magazines face out from the wall"

All of these quotes are explicitly(<em>clearly</em>) saying where each of the library items go. Including, Card catalogs, newspapers, and Magazines.

I hope this helps! :)
