Examining Figurative Language in Literature Lever out

nasty-shy [4]2 years ago

The underlined word is <em><u>here</u></em>.

Answer:

<u>In this thirsty place</u>

Explanation:

The phrase Would anything ever grow here? gives the idea that the land is empty or lacking something important to allow plants to grow. To replace “here” with “in this thirsty place” is the most suitable choice because the word “thirsty” gives us the idea that the land is deficient in or lacking water and thus can not grow any plant. This option is also an example of personification because it gives a human attribute to a non-human thing: the place.

Answer: The correct personification to replace the statement above is "in this thirsty place"

Explanation: If anything is to grow in a land it must have the requirements for a plant to survive which are adequate nutrients, and abundant water. A land or place which is devoid of those attributes can be termed as thirsty.

Narrative essay: Peer pressure.a silent destroyer​
Furkat [3]

When peers pressurize an individual, indirectly or directly, into doing something dangerous, illegal, or evil deed, it is known as peer pressure The most common example of peer pressure among youngsters is underage drinking, substance abuse, smoking, performing dangerous stunts, etc. Most adolescents give in to peer pressure because they don’t want to get on anyone’s wrong side, and they want to fit in. Listening to his gut and believing in himself, learning to say no, think a lot before making any decision are all the pointers that a kid should keep in mind to avoid peer pressure. Teachers and parents should interact with the children to trust their adults and alert them if they face peer pressure. The children should befriend someone who has already met peer pressure and resisted it to aid them in facing such situations. Peer pressure is faced by individuals of all genders, ethnicities, and ages, so it is tough to resist. As adolescents think they can make an independent decision because they have grown up physically, they are easily influenced by peer pressure. Peer pressure can be faced either face-to-face or through digital platforms, as social media provides them with opportunities. If a youngster is unable to resist peer pressure, it might ruin his future, including his studies and career, so it is necessary to fight it when possible.
