Right when the fire was going to give him a good roasting Joetta ran across the room and, sounding like that Little Engine That Thought It Could, she blew the match out before it got him!

Momma's horrible snake-woman voice came out again and said, 'If you ever, ever . . . '

A metaphor is a comparison of two things without using like or as. In this sentence Momma's voice is being compared to that of a snake-woman. It is showing her disappointment in whatever her child did. The other options are all similes. They compare two things, just like a metaphor, but they use the word "like" which is indicative of a simile.

Logically, a paragraph should a. be divided into simple and compound sentences. b. cover a single topic. c. contain no fewer tha
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

b. Cover a single topic.

Explanation:

In any academic writing, or in general any form of writing, it is necessary to make sure that the topical sentence is part of the description of the whole passage. It should and must be the central theme of the work, and must be referred to whenever necessary.

A paragraph can be the distinct and particular section of the work that may or may not discuss the main theme of the whole work. But it is necessary to make sure that a paragraph concentrates on a single topic and not talk of multiple issues/ topics in a single paragraph. Rather, if one point is made in a particular paragraph and another point taken in another paragraph, it will make it easier and more understandable for the readers to get to know the main point of the whole work/ paper.
