A simile is using like or as/ LIKE sardines in a can is a simile. A metaphor is saying the cat is the night sky for example. It is just like a simile without like or as. Literal language is saying that they actually are sardines.(Gross) Literally is saying it like this for example. The sardines were packed on the bus while on the safari because they wanted to get pictures because they were tourists. In this sentence the tourists really are sardines in your sentence it is fig. language. I hope this helps you I know it is pretty tricky.

Answer: C: courage helps people survive in danger

Explanation:

The question requires choosing the option that best states the theme of an excerpt from The King of Mazy May, by Jack London. In the excerpt, Walt Masters courageously escapes his pursuers by attacking them with his whip and pushing their wheel dog, which makes "courage helps people survive in danger" the best possible description for the theme. There are no references to honesty nor beauty coming from within. Friendship, trust, and patience are not present in the excerpt either.
