A comparison, because the USS Alabama is noted as being as big as a monster

It literally says that "The USS Alabama...is a monster". This is a metaphor because the ship is not literally a monster. By saying that it is a monster the author is using a metaphor to compare the USS Alabama to a monster. An analogy makes a comparison between sets of things. However, there isn't another comparison happening in this passage.

The USS Alabama, built in 1942, is a monster weighing in at 35,000 tons. The ship was built during the Second World War and spent 40 months actively assisting the war effort in the Pacific Ocean. During that time, she was in 26 battles. In 1964, the ship moved to her present home in Mobile, Alabama.

One day a thought came to his mind, he called his sons and said to them,"I am giving each of you one seed,that you will plant in a pot,after sometime I will see that whose plant is the best,the one who will have the most beautiful plant will be the next king".He gave each of them a seed .All his sons went back and planted the seed in the pot.          

After few months, two brothers had beautiful plants in their pots with lovely flowers and green leaves,except the youngest one, his pot was plant less although he cared for his seed and pot very well but no plant grew in his pot.When he saw his brothers' plants he became very sad and worried that what would he show to his father. One day the king called all the brothers to show their plants to him.  "Look father how beautiful our plants are". Said the sons who had plants in their pots.          

King asked the youngest son," Where is your plant?Your pot is empty.", son replied,"My dear father, I am really sorry, I tried my best but no plant grew in my pot".

"No! you should not be sorry" said the king,"because the seeds I gave to you and your brothers were dead and useless, no plant could be grown with the help of those seeds.Your brothers lied to me.When they saw that their plants were not growing, they planted other seeds in their pots.The plants they have are from other seeds. But you were honest and told me the truth, and one of the most important qualities of a king is that he should be honest. So my dear son, you will be the next king".

Moral of the story- Honesty is the best policy.

What is the purpose of lobbying?.
Rasek [7]

In order to sway a decision about a legislative or administrative action, lobbying is the practice of directly approaching or encouraging others to approach a member of the legislative, executive, or quasi-public bodies of government.

  • It encompasses any efforts made by people, organized organizations, or other lawmakers to sway lawmakers and authorities. "Lobbying" (also spelled "lobby") is a form of advocacy with the intention of influencing decisions made by the government by individuals or more commonly by lobby groups.
  • In a letter to a member of Congress, a Duke official requests that they abstain from voting on an amendment that would be presented during the bill's discussion. This is lobbying since it offers a viewpoint on a specific piece of legislation.

Thus this is the purpose of lobbying.
