I remember Dad's words to me that spring day, just before he removed the training wheels on my bicycle: "When you fall, Rosie—an
d you will—get right back on that bike!" I wanted to be free of the small training wheels, to be one of the "big kids," but I was afraid. How would I keep my balance on a bike that suddenly looked huge to me? Protesting, I climbed on the bike while Dad held onto the back of the seat. Then he gave me a shove that sent me rolling. The handlebars wobbled crazily. I'd forgotten how to use the pedals! Down I went. Then back up on the bike I went, again and again, until at last, away I went—still a little wobbly—to the end of the sidewalk, without a fall. After I braked the bike, I heard the cheering. I turned around and saw half the neighborhood gathered, watching and clapping. What could I do but take a bow? Use the passage to answer the question.
Which of these statements most accurately describes this passage?
A. It is written in the third person and describes the author’s own experiences.
B. It is written in the first person and seems to tell the author’s own experiences.
C. It is written in the third person and seems to tell about someone other than the author.
D. It is written in the first person and seems to tell about someone other than the author.
The correct answer is Option D: <em>They are antonyms their meanings are the opposite of each other</em>.
Explanation:
The words reclusive and outgoing are antonyms because outgoing means extroverted while being reclusive is being introverted not wanting to socialize and to be by themselves.
I’m pretty sure it is a simile because it says and almost break -like- and a simile is like or as being used to relate to something. Hope you have a good rest of your day !!
