Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is defined as "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This means that saying "She *IS* a typing machine" is a metaphor because it is simply not literally possible. The word "is" will be your hint that a sentence like this is a metaphor and not a simile. A simile usually has the keyword "like" in the sentence (For example: She was *like* a typing machine."

The main difference is that a metaphor claims that two things are the same while a simile claims two things are similar (you can remember this by the "simil" in both of these words!).

What does the faery handbag symbolize in the story?
muminat
The greatest part of the faery handbag is that there's a wrong way to open it — meaning a dangerous way, a way that can eat you alive. And it's that third compartment or “way of opening up” that separates the magical realism of childhood stories from the magical realism of stories for adults

Aleks [24]

Answer:

She feels partially responsible for John's affair because she feels she wasn't worthy of his love.

Explanation:

The given question refers to <em>The Crucible</em>, a play written by Arthur Miller. In this play, Miller dramatized and fictionalized the story of the Salem witch trials that took place in the Massachusetts Bay Colony during 1692 and 1693.

The given quote is from the fourth act of the play. John Proctor stands accused of practicing witchcraft, compromised by his relationship with Abigail, with whom he had an affair. His wife, Elizabeth, is sharing her true feelings with him about the affair. Because of it, their relationship grew cold, but here, she confesses that she feels partially responsible for it. Their relationship wasn't filled with any passion, and she realizes why he sought passion outside of it. She feels unworthy of his love, describing her detachment from her husband as <em>keeping a cold house</em>.

This is why the last option is the correct one.
