“She dips a corner of her sleeve / like a brush into water”

A simile is a comparison between two unlike things using like or as. Only the first and the last options contain the word like or as. The first option is incorrect because it is not making a comparison. It is merely stating that her legs are under her while she sits on a pillow. The last option is a simile because it uses the word "like". It compares a sleeve dipped in water to a brush dipped into water.

Answer:

She understands that her hair can prevent her from helping her family and that is why she starts to change her thoughts about her hair.

Explanation:

This question is about "The Breadwinner"

Parvana needs to cut all her hair and although it left her unsatisfied in the beginning, she understands that this is the price she must pay to help her family and that hair is no more important than the family she loves. This is because Parvana lives in Afghanistan who lives under the Taliban regime, which oppresses and does not allow women's freedom. Parvana is primarily responsible for supporting the family and therefore needs to cut her hair and pretend to be a boy in order for the Taliban to allow her to continue working to support the family.
