Question 4: simile

The simile in the excerpt is "His beard was as white as snow." A simile is a comparison between two things using like or as. In this simile the color of his beard is compared to the snow. As to the other options, personification is giving a nonhuman thing human-like traits. Everything in the excerpt is human. Allusion is a reference to another literary work. There is no reference. Metaphor is a comparison between two things without using like or as. This uses as so it is a simile and not a metaphor.

Question 5: He plans to pretend that he has gone mad.

When Hamlet talks about "an antic disposition", he means that he is going to change his mood to one of madness. It is important to remember that mad actually means insane or crazy, not angry.

Question 6: Hamlet is saying that his madness changes like the weather, and that he is only mad some of the time.

In this piece of dialogue Hamlet is speaking of his madness like it's the wind. The wind changes directions just like his madness can change. He is trying to tell his friends that his madness is not constant but instead changes.

Write a story illustrate the saying patience is a virtue?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Once upon a time a king had announced that anyone who wanted the post of personal assistant must meet him. Many people gathered in the palace. The king led them to a pond and said, "Whoever will fill this pond's water in this pot will be chosen for the post. But remember, there is a hole in the pot."

So some people left without a single try. While some people tried to once and then said, "The king has already chosen someone else. Let's go."

But one man kept filling the pot with pond water patiently. He filled the water in the pot from the pond and came out of the ground. But always within a few moments, the water poured on the ground completely. He tried that uncountable number of times. At last, the pond became empty. The man found a diamond ring in the empty pond and he gave it to the king. At this, the king said, "This ring is a reward for your patience and hard work. You are fit for the job. "So the man confirmed that patience pays.

Which one is correct, grammatically
lesya [120]

As someone who writes books, I'd normally use quotation marks, and the person is obviously talking, so the first one should be correct.
