The corrector answer is D. metaphor.

A metaphor is a comparison that does not use "like" or "as." (A simile, on the other hand, does use "like" or "as.") In the above example, Ross is saying that freedom of expression is LIKE an oil. Even though she is not using the word "like," she is still making a comparison between freedom and oil. Since she is not using the word like, the literary device is a metaphor.

<u>Answer:</u>

Libraries can give us an opportunity to learn and grow. You can learn new things by flipping through the pages of an old dusty book. There are so many things you can learn in a Library not only is there books there can be computers or even groups that are held in a library. These places are the foundation of learning and that can soon become new opportunities for all.

Claim: I believe kids should be able to express themselves by not wearing uniforms.

Reason: It lets the students of a school show their inner personality and be comfortable.

Reason: Students can feel confident about themselves in what they are wearing throughout their school day routine

Reason: People can show their style by what they are wearing they feel that they can be understood.

Conclusions:

I believe students feel better throughout their school day routine by what they are wearing. They can be understood and show their personality and be comfortable as well. Not only that it can be cheaper too.

Read the excerpt from "Ulysses" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Select four sets of lines in the poem that reflect the Victorian theme
iren2701 [21]

Answer: Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.

Push off, and sitting well in order smite The sounding furrows;

for my purpose To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths Of all the western stars, until I die.

One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Explanation:

In the first line the author exhorts his friends to search a new world.

Ulysses exhorts his sailors to set sail; the phrase "smite / the sounding furrows" compares the act of rowing to beating or striking something; beating something that makes a sound is here a metaphor for rowing. ... "Beyond the sunset" is a metaphor.

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Ulysses yet again tells us that even though he and his sailors are not young and don't have a lot of stamina, there's enough left to go for a while. "Abides" is a word that means "remains."
