Read the paragraph. The moment that Jack learned he was going to go to soccer camp, time began to move as slowly as a snail. He

had been saving all year to be able to go to camp. His parents were proud of his hard work, so they surprised him by helping him pay for camp and completing the registration. Six more long weeks to go! All Jack could think about was camp, and it made each day seem like a week. To take his mind off things, he decided to put more time into practicing. When it was time to go, he would be ready! What is the meaning of the simile in the paragraph?

Answer: That time goes by very slow, like a snail.

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech used to compare something with a different thing. They are often used by writers to make a text more descriptive and entertaining.

Similes commonly follow the same format so they’re easy to identify in a sentence.

There are two types of simile:  

1. Those that use the word ‘as’. Such is the case in this example.

2. Those that use the word ‘like’.

Tema [17]

The correct answer is "It shows similarities with Stalin's Great Purge and reveals how dictators use fear to control people".

Stalin used diverse tactics to deceit the people and gain control over his image. Once he got to a position of perceived power, he used the secret police in the same way that Napoleon uses his dogs: to quiet down the opposition with the use of force and fear-spreading. Public displays of violence as a form of punishment result in a society controlled by fear, where everyone behaves according to the imposition of a tyrant or dictator.

Hope this is helpful to you!

“....A wretched sylph too fondly (interposed), Fate urged the shears, and cut the sylph in twain."
lilavasa [31]

The answer is: C.) interfered.

In the passage from Alexander Pope's "The R*pe of the Lock ," the word <em>interposed </em>means to intervene between two parties. As a consequence, the word which comes closer in meaning is <em>interfered</em>, which implies taking part or intervening in an activity without invitation or necessity.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because <em>object </em>is used to express disapproval, <em>flee </em>suggests escaping from a dangerous situation, and <em>revive </em>means to restore to life or consciousness.
