A simile is a saying that compares one thing to another by using the words "like" or "as." For example, you could say "that person is as strong as an ox with muscles like solid steel" and you can get a picture of someone that's strong in your mind. Both of those compare two specific things so they're similes.

A metaphor is a saying that compares one thing to another but what makes it different is that a metaphor does not include the words "like" or "as.

How did you react to the revelation that Vladek and Anja had been trapped? Were you
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The revelation that Vladeck and Anja were under arrest is shocking to the reader, as the story creates hope that they will manage to escape without being arrested.

Although you have not shown the text to which this question refers, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "Maus" by Art Spiegelman , a biographical graphic novel, which recounts the journey of Vladeck and Anja, two Polish Jews who survived the holocaust.

Reading the graph novel reveals the following information:

  • Jews gradually lost rights and freedoms.
  • Anja and Vladeck, suffered all these losses, reaching the point where they needed to stay hidden to avoid being arrested and taken to concentration camps.
  • The hiding places were too dangerous.
  • Anja and Vadeck received an offer to travel to Hungary with a middleman, as Hungary had not been invaded by Nazi forces.
  • The middleman was working alongside the Nazis and tricked Vladeck and Anja.
  • At the beginning of the trip to Hungary, the middleman informed the Nazis that Vladeck and Anja were on the train.
  • At that point, they were arrested and taken to concentration camps.

During the reading, the reader is apprehensive about the persecution that Anja and Vladeck suffer and creates an empathy for them, reaching the point that the reader wants them to manage to flee to Hugria. In this case, when they are arrested the reader is surprised, as they are surprised and saddened, as they had proof that the middleman was a trustworthy person and that the trip was safe.

zepelin [54]
<span>d. There are four seasons in a year

The main idea is the topic of the certain literature.
</span><span>Because in an essay, there is a topic , all you have to do with the successive paragraphs you are writing is to write things related to the topic given. Every paragraph in the essay must be a subtopic to the overall topic therefore having another topic in each paragraph will make your essay incoherent and unparalleled in ideas perspective</span>
