I wanted to stay angry with him, even though my anger was acid, eating away at my soul. It was my comfort, my security, to know

Answer:

The metaphor supports the author's purpose by depicting how angry the character with the analogy that their anger burned.

Explanation:

The author wanted to portray anger as something that burns continually and eats away at the character, but also that they have control over it. It aids the reader with different examples to better understand how the emotion is supposed to be perceived.

Pick a picture you like and write a story about the picture. Write a paragraph of between 15 and 20 sentences.
Elis [28]

Answer:

One morning, I woke up and thought to do something instead of sitting around. I had gotten a message from my best friend saying that a new haunted house was open. I told him that I'd go. Once we got there, no one was there. It started raining. We went inside and heard footsteps. I didn't know what it was because again, there was no one there. After a little bit of investigating, I found out that there was a box under a wooden plank near the footsteps. I opened the box, only to see a picture. In a split second, my friend was on the ground, grappling a mysterious creature. I said that we had to leave immediately, and not try to fight. He refused. He managed to throw the creature in a locker as we ran as fast as we could away from that house. When we arrived at my place, we observed the picture more closely. I will never forget this image.

In the story “Allegory of the Cave”
katrin2010 [14]

1. The most important thing in the "Allegory of the Cave" is that the people chained up had to interpret the shadows behind them. The main theme is that human perception cannot derive true knowledge, and instead, real knowledge can only come via philosophical reasoning.

2. You can relate this to life because if someone says something and encourages everyone else to believe them, they'll live their life believing something that's not true.

What effect does Mather create with the cumulative sentence at the beginning of the essay? how does he create a different effect
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

A rising tension that gradually fades.

Explanation:

The beginning of the essay is a strong sentence that keeps adding elements of suspense as it develops, eventually making the sentence overloaded with information (especially considering that it is the first sentence of the essay).  Nevertheless, the entire sentence seems to describe a single action.

The second sentence is a complex sentence that, in contrast to the first, has several smaller steps in the development of the plot. The steps are divided but complementary; they happen independently of each other and add to each other's meaning, at the same time.
