Hey there!
The poem version of "paragraphs" are stanzas. For example, if this were my poem:
My car is very shiny (first stanza)
I drive it every day (second stanza)
If it gets hurt (third stanza)
I will throw it away (fourth stanza)
It's almost like an essay composed of paragraphs, but a poem is much shorter and it's, therefore, a poem composed of stanzas.
Hope this helps!
I think it was the Great depression not sure though
Answer:
is this a essay question ?
Explanation:
This question is incomplete because the excerpt is missing; here is the excerpt:
In a smithy
one sees a white-hot axehead or an adze plunged and wrung in a cold tub, screeching steam- the way they make soft iron hale and hard—:
just so that eyeball hissed around the spike.
The answer to this question is D. How hot the spear actually is
Explanation:
The purpose of the epic simile is to make an extensive comparison between two elements of ideas. This differs from regular simile because it uses many details or lines to make the comparison. In the excerpt presented, the author uses an epic simile to compare the actin of the spike entering the eye of the cyclops with the action of putting a hot metal in a cold tub through details such as "white-hot axehead... in a cold tub" or "that eyeball hissed around the spike". Moreover, the purpose of using this epic simile is to emphasize how hot the spike is, which allows the reader to imagine the reaction of the cyclops as the hot spike enters its eye.
