Read this statement: "But old fears have a way of clinging like cobwebs." How is this statement related to figurative language?

English

The statement is related to figurative language because it is a simile (a simile contains the words "like" or "as" to compare two unlike things), an alliteration (a phrase that has repeating vowel sounds at the beginning of two or more words in a sentence: "clinging like cobwebs"), and a personification (when an inanimate object is given human characteristics: "fear" was said to be "clinging").

Read this excerpt from "The World on Turtle's Back."
Luda [366]

Answer:

The excerpt suggests that the Iroquois believed that:

sometimes good can come from tragedy.

Explanation:

The excerpt in question is part of a creation myth by the Iroquois, a group of Native-American tribes. According to it, tragedy can give birth to blessings. The death of "our mother" gave origin to plants whose existence would be crucial for the survival of the Iroquois people: corn, beans, squash, and tobacco. Death does not cease to be a tragic event. It still brings sadness and loss into people's lives. But the myth uses it to show that, however bad things may seem, something good may come out of it.
