The simile of Lines 18 through 23 compares the storm clouds that whip across the sky from the horizon to the zenith to: locks of hair of a frenzied woman. (Ode to the West Wind).
Answer and Explanation:
Jim and Della are characters in the short story "The Gift of the Magi," by O. Henry. In the story, Della sells her long hair to buy Jim a golden chain for his precious watch. She does not know Jim has sold his watch to buy beautiful combs to adorn her long hair.
<u>The gifts do not affect Della and Jim's relationship negatively. Quite the contrary, they only serve as proof of their great love for each other. Each one sold their most precious possession to be able to give the other something that represents their feelings. Even though the gifts are now useless, they still mean a lot, and the couple's love is not diminished at all. Their reactions when they receive the gifts are evidence of that:</u>
<em>But she held them to her heart, and at last was able to look up and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim!"</em>
<em>. . .</em>
<em>Jim sat down and smiled.</em>
<em>"Della," he said, "let's put our Christmas gifts away and keep them a while. They're too nice to use now. I sold the watch to get the money to buy the combs. And now I think we should have our dinner."</em>
It was last year as a freshman when I experienced a series of problems. I went to a school that had an arts program, which is something that I wanted to pursue my entire life.
I was struggling in math, which was something I was never good at. I had a D grade for a whole semester. My parents started to get upset with me and said that I wasn't trying when I really was; because of this I started to give up and not even try anymore, which resulted in me getting a F grade.
I then got into the wrong crowd and we ditched class every single day for the second semester. I eventually got kicked out of the arts program and I was homeschooled this year.
This upcoming school year, I plan to start fresh, hopefully get back into the arts program (I am not sure if they will considering that they kicked me out) and stay on track.
