Answer: D) Odysseus’s men are compared to caught fish, showing their helplessness.

Explanation: A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" or "as." In the given excerpt from "The Odyssey" we can see an example of a simile that compares Odysseuss's men to caught fish, specially in the phrase: "A man surfcasting on a point of rock  for bass or mackerel, whipping his long rod  to drop the sinker and the bait far out,  will hook a fish and rip it from the surface  to dangle wriggling through the air."

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

D. Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston!

Explanation:

A charged language is a word that is used to spark off or create an emotional response. Charged words were greatly used by Patrick Henry in the Virginia Convention at the time when America wanted to pull away from British rule. He referred to their condition as those of people who were in chains.

"Chain" is a charged word that connoted a condition of slavery. This would make the people know that they were being subdued and needed to take action to be freed from bondage.
