Which statement best conveys what the comparison to scorpions in lines 86-93 reveals about failure?

English
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Remember, it all started when Isabel said “Did you guys know that bark scorpions take five years to grow to full size?” she continued “in order to get bigger, they have to shed their hard exoskeleton. It literally cracks open and they crawl out, all soft and defenseless. And then their outer layer toughens up again to

protect them.”

The comparison came when she then said “They’re always growing. They have to take a risk,...we took a risk and shed those shells — and now we’re bigger and tougher than ever!”.

So just as the scorpions were in their state of failure for five years until they shedded their shells, to overcome failure one must take a risk and shed those shells (failures).

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

A) She uses comparisons to show the speaker’s connection to the snake .

Explanation:

Well, in the poem, she sees a snake slithering through the grass. With that view, she remembers a time when she was younger and interacted with a snake:

"A narrow fellow in the grass...

------------------------------------------------

Yet when a child, and barefoot,

I more than once, at morn..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dickinson also said how the snake seemed scary to a lot of people, but in reality it was not:

"But never met this fellow,

Attended or alone,

Without a tighter breathing,

And zero at the bone.

Why does Julius almost put the book of haiku back on the shelf? What factors lead to his momentary doubt that haiku is for him?
alina1380 [7]
<span>The name Julius has its origin in Rome, so the fact that his background is not Japanese, then that could make haiku somewhat foreign to him. Another reason Julius could be putting the haiku back on the shelf might be the fact that he has other options of books to read that are better or more appealing to him or subjects with which he has previous experience.</span>
