This is a simile. The cat’s fur is being compared to silk to show the similarity. Similes use the words “like” and “as ___ as.” Here, “as soft as” is being used, so it is a simile.

Hope this helps!

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Frankenstein contains elements of both gothic and romantic literature. Mary Shelley brings out the romantic’s love of nature in the story. Both Frankenstein and the creature explicitly credit nature with giving them joy and lessening their sorrow several times. Victor commits a great sin by trying to go against nature’s laws. Walton is shown to be at fault for his desire to explore the arctic. Mourning the loss of nature to industrialization in the mid-eighteenth century was a romantic trait.

Romantic themes of education and human potential can be found in the scenes with the De Lacey family.

The reanimation of a dead body and descriptions of graveyards and corpses are all gothic conventions designed to create horror or terror in the reader. Other gothic conventions used in Frankenstein are murder, madness, and the suppression of women

Which sentence correctly uses commas to separate items in a list?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The deacidification process preserves pages by neutralizing acid with magnesium oxide, raising the pH level of the paper, and minimizing the alkaline reserve. (Choice 3)

Explanation:

Choice 1 is wrong because you don't need a comma after and. You don't set off coordinating conjunctions with a comma when you give a list of items.

Choice 2 is wrong because you need a comma <u>before</u>  and, <u>not after</u> it.

Choice 4 is wrong because you use a comma before and in a list of three or more items. Sentence 4 contains three items but no comma before and, which is wrong.
