A simile is a description of something which involves its comparison with another thing to show similarity between them. Similes mostly make use of the words 'like' or/and 'as' to compare two things.

Here in this given excerpt from Act II of Hamlet, there are lines that are acting similes:

4. Must, like a who*e, unpack my heart with words,

In this above sentence, 'like a who*e' shows that it is a simile.

5. And fall a-cursing, like a very drab,

Here, 'like a very drab' indicates that is a simile.

What is Reverend Hale's main qualification for the job of discerning
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

D) He identified a woman as a witch in his own church, and she was  shown to be not guilty.

Explanation:

<u>It is said that Reverend John Hale has identified a woman to be a witch year before in his parish in Beverly</u>. The woman in question turned out to be not guilty, but “a mere pest”. Still, Reverent Hale thinks of himself as qualified to detect satanic doings and witchcraft, and others think of him in this manner as well.

<u> Even though Reverend Parris of Salem knows the woman of Beverly did not turn out to be a witch, he still called Reverend Hale to look into the matter.</u> He presents him as having experience in demonic arts, and Mrs. Putnam agrees.

Therefore, his false accusation still remains as his qualifier and we can see how people tend to believe church Reverends even when they wrong.

What does churchill invite the house to do
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

In Churchill's "Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat" speech, he invites the House to approve of the war measures he has put into place.

Explanation:

This speech is a famous one given by Prime Minister Winston Churchill at the beginning of WWII. His call "to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us" is now famous in British history.

Specifically, he uses the word invite in the context of "I now invite the House, by the Resolution which stands in my name, to record its approval of the steps taken and to declare its confidence in the new Government."

He has just created a War Cabinet that will hopefully provide strong administration for the nation against the German threat. He is then seeking the government's support of his actions.
