The right answer is "The sea is compared to a boiling pot, emphasizing its churning."

Explanation:   The simile in this excerpt is making a comparison between the agitated movement of boiling water in a pan and the hectic movement of the sea.

The simile is the completeness of two terms among which there is some relation of similarity, as in the metaphor. The comparison, however, is made through a connective (with, like, looked, etc.) and seeks to enhance certain quality of the middle way (how, what, how, how much, etc.). Examples: "The sea sings like a canary"; "The city, asleep, looked like an endless graveyard."

Write a one-paragraph summary of “Chaucer changing world
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Feudal England, the Middle Ages, the medieval period—these are names historians assign to a period of English history that lasted approximately from 500 to 1500 A.D. and that was gradually coming to an end during the life of one of England’s most celebrated writers, Geoffrey Chaucer, who was born in the early 1340s and lived till 1400. In The Canterbury Tales, Chaucer presents what today’s readers might consider snapshots of life in the late medieval period. Medieval people harbored similar hopes and nursed similar worries to those that occupy people today; yet the settings and activities of their daily life are now vanished into the remote past. So, if you’d like to travel comfortably alongside Chaucer’s pilgrims, you’ll likely benefit from information about how they spent their days and employed their energies and abilities.

____ [38]

Answer:

here is the correct answer

Explanation:

In The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, the author uses direct characterization to reveal Junior’s thoughts about himself and his name from a first-person perspective. He feels uncomfortable, which he reveals directly through the narration. In “The Building,” the author uses the third-person perspective to characterize Leslie and his brother Eric. An outside, all-knowing narrator describes how the boys think and act.
