Poor Richard's aphorisms often succeed because of their implied metaphors, or metaphors that do not state explicitly the two thi

This aphorism is about not exceeding your limits. If your head is made out of wax, then it will melt if you go out in the sun. Similarly, if you have a big exam, you shouldn't go party the night before, or any similar comparison that you can think of.

How are Montags actions contrasted to those of the passengers?
Maurinko [17]
Montag carries a bible while he is on the subway and starts to read it as a distraction from the Dentifrice advertisement. Montag is affected by the annoying jingle while the rest of the passengers were "pounded into submission".  His outburts regarding the advertisement and the book he's carrying make him someone the passengers are wary of and they begin to move away from him.

Imagine you are Jimmy Wells and describe your encounter with Bob in about 100 words.(First answer brainliest)
faltersainse [42]

I think that part of a letter that Jimmy would write would focus on why he had to arrest Bob.  The note that Jimmy writes to Bob when he is arrested would be a starting point as to why Jimmy would be disturbed:  "Bob: I was at the appointed place on time. When you struck the match to light your cigar I saw it was the face of the man wanted in Chicago. Somehow I couldn't do it myself, so I went around and got a plain clothes man to do the job. JIMMY."  For Jimmy, his letter to Bob would center about how he felt agonized in arresting him.  In the line, "I couldn't do it myself," there might be the basis of a letter to Bob.  

Jimmy would talk about how their friendship as kids, the personalities they both had, experienced a change as they became older.  When Bob talks about how Jimmy was a bit of a "plodder," it might belie the fact that Bob has embraced breaking the law in order to find success.  The letter that Jimmy writes to Bob might delve into this reality, one in which Jimmy has recognized the need to accept the law no matter what the cost.  Jimmy's allegiance to the loyalty supersedes his loyalty to Bob, something that is evident in both the note he wrote to him as he was arrested, as well as the agony he feels now that he had to make the arrest.  The letter to Bob would talk about how Jimmy felt agonized at doing what he did.  Perhaps, it might involve a level of pleading to Bob that he would understand, or it might be more informative in terms of explaining his actions, but I think that the letter to Bob would be rooted in much of what the note to Bob indicated.

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The Civil War was a traumatic and destructive conflict that remains the bloodiest war in US history. Realism began around the end of the war in 1865. Rejecting romantic-era ideals that focused on allegorical characters, symbolic settings, and dramatic subjects, realism depicted ordinary people in everyday situations.
