Personification

The ship has human-like characteristics. The sentence is talking as if the ship has the brains to decide it can sigh and hesitate.

You can remember by seeing that the word "person" is in "personification".

Kruka [31]
It's certainly sensory. And it's figurative too. I think I'd pick figurative because the central piece of language is a simile. That's pretty good use of language when you compare the bobbing heads of flowers to helmeted soldiers.

What is a theme of 'The Girl Who Threw Butterflies'? Use two details from the story to support your answer.
inn [45]

Answer:

The theme of "The Girl Who Threw Butterflies" is self-confidence and self-trust.

Explanation:

"The Girl Who Threw Butterflies" is a novel written by Mick Cochrane. The novel is about a young girl named Molly Williams, an eighth-grader, who has lost her father in a car accident.

Molly doesn't want to be seen with sympathetic eyes by people, conveying the message "Oh! Poor girl, she has lost her father", rather she wanted to be known more than that. Molly with this desire in her heart joins the boys' baseball team. The theme of the novel is self-confidence and self-trust. This theme is evident when Molly tries to persuade her mother and everyone that she can play and compete with the boys in the baseball team. But her mother was unsure if she could play baseball with boys. Another evidence is when Molly tries to get into the boys' baseball team and her trial was taken, every boy thought that Molly won't be able to make it up to the team and that she can only play <em>girls softball. </em>But in Chapter 13 we can see that how Molly was able to make herself a place in the team and was selected.

<em>"She took a deep breath and then looked. There it was, at the very bottom of the list, the very last name: Molly Williams."</em>
