Answer:
A:I love winter, but it's currently bumming me out. I'm sick of the endless cold, my dry skin, the fact that I can't just let my hair gracefully air dry if I have to go anywhere within two hours after I've showered. Winter can bring a whole bunch of really fun and exciting things (mainly Christmas and the first snow fall) but it's also a bit of a drag. Sure, you can snuggle up with a cup of tea and read, or read some spine chilling stories in chilly weather, or even just read something to get through the winter blues (notice how all of my solutions are about reading?), but honestly, sometimes the best thing to do is go to bed praying that when you wake up, the temperature outside will be warmer than below freezing.
B:Horatius Cocles, Roman hero traditionally of the late 6th century BC but perhaps legendary, who first with two companions and finally alone defended the Sublician bridge (in Rome) against Lars Porsena and the entire Etruscan army, thereby giving the Romans time to cut down the bridge. He then threw himself into the Tiber to swim to the other shore. Versions differ as to whether he reached safety or was drowned. The myth possibly arose in explanation of an ancient statue of a crippled one-eyed man (cocles means “one-eyed”) in the nearby Temple of Vulcan. The ancients claimed this represented the wounded Cocles, but it may be a statue of the god Vulcan, who was both lame and traditionally associated with the Cyclops (One-Eyed). The story is first mentioned by the 2nd-century-BC Greek historian Polybius
C:In Māori mythology the primal couple Rangi and Papa (or Ranginui and Papatūānuku) appear in a creation myth explaining the origin of the world (though there are many different versions). In some South Island dialects, Rangi is called Raki or Rakinui.
Answer:
Let's look at this sentence first since it's the most simple one:
"Does it stink like rotten meat?"
Explanation:
Step one (green):
First off, this is a simile. The "like" isn't the simile itself but just a key that is helpful for finding the simile.
Similes are things like "This song is like my favorite album's music." The WHOLE sentence is the simile.
Now, hopefully you've got that :)
Step two (yellow):
For this, we are looking at what is being compared. For this case "it" and "rotten meat" are being compared.
Again looking at "This song is like my favorite album's music." The "song" and "music" are being compared.
Let's look at another one in this assignment -
"Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?"
For this case, "it" and "raisin" are being compared.
Make sense?
Step three (blue):
Let's look at: "Does it stink like rotten meat?"
What is the action verb. Well by looking at this none of them are verbs EXCEPT stink. Some might say "he's stinking really bad today." That is an action VERB. Hope that helps :)
One reason is that say someone is on bed rest/in the hospital not allowed to move, it can make them very week and make it very hard for them to walk again.
