Answer:

<em>What is peer pressure? </em>

A peer is like a friend. Peer pressure is when the friend pressures you to do something.

Example:

You and your friends go out one night. You all see something that you know is wrong if you do it (ex. Smoking, drinking, rock concerts, tattoo etc). Your friends go, and invite you to join them, and you refuse, cause you know it's wrong.

Your friends then tell you that "Your not cool" or "If you don't go, you're not our friend anymore". They are pressuring you to join them.

And that's basically peer pressure, and believe me, I actually fell for it, but it was for rollercoasters, not smoking or drinking or all that stuff.

Hope this helps!

the subject of love in the poem "ashes of night", is an example of which poetic device? simile, metaphor, hyperbole or personifi

Dmitry [639]

I think the poem in question is actually "Ashes of Life" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.

If your question pertains to the subject of the poem as a whole, I believe the correct answer to your question is B. metaphor.

Metaphor means that a thing is not to be regarded in its literal sense, but as representative of something else. In this case, there are no ashes in the poem. But they are a metaphor of what's left of her life now that her beloved has abandoned her. We can also take this as an example of imagery, suggesting that she was burning with love, and now only ashes have remained.

However, if you take a closer look at some of the lines, such as "<span>Love has gone and left me", it is a personification - giving human attributes to animals, abstract notions, or non-living things.</span>
