METAPHORS
"Father" - the king is not really his subjects' father. He acts their protector and sovereign, which is traditionally a father's role in a family. Hence the metaphor.
"Meanest peasants" - I believe he doesn't refer to peasants in the literal sense. He probably wants to say that even the most spiteful people have to admire the king's actions.
"Heave'ns choicest constant blessings crown'd" - this crown of heavenly blessings is a metaphor of God's will and patronage.

HYPERBOLES
"Belov'd by all the nations round" - this is an exaggerated image of the king. Of course, it is impossible that all the nations love and admire him.
"<span>Live with heav'ns choicest constant blessings crown'd!" - this is a metaphor and a hyperbole at the same time.</span>

Elza [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Figurative language is language that does not say exactly what it means. In all of the other answer choices, the answers could logically happen. In answer B, however, it states, "like a gathering storm." This is a comparison using like or as, which means it is a simile. Similes are very common types of figurative language.

What is the main purpose of descriptive writing?
Sliva [168]
The primary purpose of descriptive writing is to describe a person, place or thing in such a way that a picture is formed in the reader's mind. Capturing an event through descriptive writing involves paying close attention to the details by using all of your five senses.

Read the passage from The Call of the Wild and choose the words that best describe the character of Billee.
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Correct answer is A: It is a part of the exposition that describes Buck's

Explanation:

The story follows a dog named Buck, and all the misfortunes that happen to him. At one point of his life, he becomes a sled dog. It is true that in the lines following the mentioned paragraph, the author mentions that Buck welcomed these two dogs, but the accent of the story isn't really on Buck making friends. Also, there is mention about Spitz beating Billie and how Buck and Sol-leks got into a fight, but the accent of these paragraphs isn't on the fight. The writer rather focuses on the personal characteristics of each dog, which means that this is exposition that describes each of Buck's teammates.
