The school buses lined up like tanks on the battlefield. Obviously the school buses are not tanks and the school is not a battlefield. But in this occasion, the metaphor is used to describe the school as a battlefield, in that there are police forces keeping the angry people from attacking the black students, who are entering the buses to be taken home. (Buses being armored like tanks)

Diary of a Wimpy Kid is subtitled “a novel in cartoons.” How do the cartoons affect the story? Besides the cartoons, in what way
Stells [14]

Answer:

The cartoons in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid book series affect the story by adding in that extra element, making the audience interested. They add to the story's plot by showing readers what's happening through pictures. For example, if Greg is assigned to wash dishes by his parents, the cartoon provided will show just that. Besides the cartoons, I think Diary of a Wimpy Kid is different from other novels I have read because they give an insight on middle school life in a character's point of view.

Explanation:

I hope this is good! :D

Excerpt from The Truth About Diaries
Tresset [83]

Answer: A) book.

Explanation:

We can conclude that the author is referring to a book when saying "novel", because:

  • "novel" is a kind of a book
  • the location where the novel can be found indicates that it is a book ("the store")
  • words "comic" and "novel" are not interchangeable; the comic is a periodical which includes strips/cartoons, while the synonym for comic is comic paper/cartoon paper
  • words "movie" and "novel" have completely different meaning
  • as an adjective, word "novel" does mean "new", but in this context, it is not used as an adjective
