-simile (ex: like a boil)

-the simile, a comparison of two things using the words “like” or “as”, reflects the author’s view of injustice.

-the simile emphasizes the ugly, grotesque nature of injustice as well as how it inevitably must be dealt with. The passage takes on a gory tone but adopts a hopeful mood when proposing a solution to the problem.

-the simile allows the audience to view injustice as a problem that must be addressed before it festers and worsens beneath the cloak of normalcy.

Distraction as a way of survival

Explanation:

An outgoing social butterfly, often accused of flirting, is _____. cholic melancholic phlegmatic sanguine
Natali [406]
I believe that the best answer for this question would be sanguine. People who fall under the category of the sanguine temperament tend to be lively, pleasure-seeking, talkative, and highly social. They can easily fall in love and may be flighty and forgetful. You can also reach this conclusion by ruling out the others; choleric individuals are angry and impulsive, melancholic individuals are introverted and solemn, and phlegmatic individuals are thoughtful and calm. Hope this helps.
