Answer: C) neither.

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" and "as." A metaphor is also a comparison but it is direct (it doesn't use the words "like" or "as"). The given sentence isn't an example of a simile, nor a metaphor, because it isn't comparing elements, when it says "velvet shoes" it is just describing the shoes using an adjective.

Neither, because the shoes could be made of velvet, in that case, then it is neither or if the shoes are not really made of velvet, it is a metaphor. it is definitely not a simile

Answer:

Thousands of lives have been lost to erupting and volcanos. Many active volcanoes in history have also caused the destruction of human civilizations, and the earth. The eruption of the Indonesian volcano Krakatau in 1883 did extensive damage to the neighboring islands. The power of the volcano brought huge waves down onto the people, taking the lives of nearly 36,000. Other active volcanos in Indonesia have been recorded to cause severe damage to the climate as well as the life there. The ash and dust from the volcano effected the sunlight, destroying plant life and wrecking the natural balance of the environment. Other volcanic affects, such as mud flows, lava, and floods have also played a part in the fall of our ecosystems. In Indonesia, 1816 was named the year with no summer due to large volcanic eruptions. These eruptions were so severe, they had effect on other country’s, thousands of miles away.

The critics declared the play a winner. What kind of complement is indicated by the bolded word?
FinnZ [79.3K]
Assuming that the bolded word is winner, the correct answer is object complement.
The word winner refers to the word <em>play - </em>and given that the word play is the direct object of this sentence, then the word <em>winner </em>will be its complement - it will complete it, and answer the question What did the critics declare the play to be?
It cannot be a predicate nominative because it is not preceded by a verb. It cannot be a direct object because that is <em>the play. </em>It cannot be a predicate adjective because it is a noun, not an adjective.

Which sample conflict is the most similar to the conflict in “the necklace”
aniked [119]

Well I've read the original...It all started after she was borrowing a necklace from a friend to look fancy when she goes to this ball/meeting. Then she looses it so the best guest is A because her and her husband were struggling to go from jewelry store to jewelry store looking for a necklace that looked just like the one she lost.
