Write about a time when you realized that GROWING UP could be demanding, rewarding, and tough.
aliina [53]

Answer: I remember finding out that growing up could be demanding, rewarding, and tough because in my pre-teen years, I couldn’t make any actual friends because my low-self esteem and lack of confidence. It happened because I was being bullied, the more the bullies chant nasty words towards me, the more I started to believe it. Some assignments were hard and confusing, I began to stress out. However, because I had no one to talk to or spend time with, I focused on my assignments and began to improve some skills such as grammar, typing, art, etc. I managed to make some online/gaming friends, I don’t feel lonely as I did back then.

Explanation:

Sorry if it doesn’t match your P.O.V, I’m just saying this from my perspective.

Match the literary terms with their meaning.
mixer [17]

Answer:

1. Simile

In this figure of speech, two things are compared that are not really the same, but are used to make a point about each other. The difference between simile and metaphor is that you can obviously see words "like" in the sentence.

Example: “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get”

2. Metaphor

The use of metaphor compares two things that are not alike and finds something about them to make them alike. Some writers try to use this style to create something profound out of comparing two things that appear to have nothing at all in common.

Example: “My heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill”

3. Alliteration

This is a very common figure of speech that involves using words that begin with the same sound. It is often used in advertising slogans to create something catchy that more people will remember.

Example: “She sells sea shells by the seashore.”

4. Irony

This figure of speech tries to use a word in a literal sense that debunks what has just been said. It is often used to poke fun at a situation that everyone else sees as a very serious matter.

Example: “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!”

5. Imagery

This involves using the aid of other figures of speech like simile, metaphor, personification, onomatopoeia etc. to create visual representation of ideas in our minds.

Example: "It was dark and dim in the forest","He whiffed the aroma of brewed coffee"

6. Rhyme Scheme

It is the pattern of rhyme that comes at the end of each verse (line) in poetry. Rhyme scheme is often represented by alphabets.

Example: "I was riding a horse one day

                When he suddenly stopped in the way

                Along came a car

                My horse went far

                Really, really far away"

The above limerick has the rhyme scheme of 'AABBA'

7. Personification

This is a way of giving an inanimate object the qualities of a living thing. This can sometimes be used to invoke an emotional response to something by making it more personable, friendly and relatable.

Example: “The sun smiled down on her”

8. Onomatopoeia

This is the use of a word that actually sounds like what it means. These words are meant to describe something that actually sounds very much like the word itself. This is a trick often used in advertising to help convey what something is really like.

Examples: “hiss”,“ding-dong”,"buzz"

9. Refrain

Refrain is a verse, a line, a set, or a group of some lines that repeats at regular intervals in different stanzas in a poem.

Example: The art of losing isn’t hard to master;

                so many things seem filled with the intent

                to be lost that their loss is no disaster…

                Lose something every day. Accept the fluster

                of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.

                The art of losing isn’t hard to master

10. Repetitive

Repetition involves repetition of words, phrases, syllables, or even sounds in a full piece of poetry.

11. Hyperbole

This figure of speech makes things seem much bigger than they really were by using grandiose depictions of everyday things. Hyperbole is often seen as an exaggeration that adds a bit of humor to a story.

Example: "I've told you a million times!”

A symbol is an object, action, or event that represents something or that creates a range of associations beyond itself. In lite
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The chosen symbol is Fire.

Explanation:

Mary Shelley referred to Frankenstein as a modern Prometheus, reinforcing the symbolism associated with fire since the title of the work.

As we know, Prometheus is a character present in Greek mythology and described as responsible for creating the human race and for giving knowledge to fire for humanity, which allowed an evolution in the human race. In her book, Shelley puts Frankenstein as an allusion to Prometheus, causing him to create human life.

In this story, fire represents knowledge and once Frankenstein's creature had access to knowledge, Frankenstein's life and family was completely destroyed by his creature, who, like fire, consumed everything that Frankenstein held. In this case, fire also represents suffering and destruction.

"Frankenstein" is a work full of symbolisms and meanings, which deal directly with the human emotional and its capacity to create and destroy.
