English

Answer:

As the tired ploughman, spent with stubborn toil,

Whose oxen long have torn the furrow'd soil,

Sees with delight the sun's declining ray,

When home with feeble knees he bends his way

To late repast (the day's hard labour done);

Explanation:

An epic simile is a type of metaphor that uses comparisons to describe an event, someone, a place, etc. by using the words "like", "as" or "as in", and that is developed over several lines of verse, thus it is long, and which it's more commonly found in epic poems.

Therefore, the chosen lines are an example of an epic simile, as the narrator compares the character to "the tired ploughman" and, in the folowing lines, the narrator provides further characteristics of him.

scientists must consider a variety of factors when describing a robot. what evidence from the text supports this conclusion ?​
scoundrel [369]
Many people think that robots are an inevitable part of the future. It would be pretty cool to have a droid friend around to save the day, or even just to keep you company when you got bored. While it may seem like something out of science fiction, researchers are already imagining a world in which robots become a more integrated part of our lives. We already have robots among us: some are designed to work in factories, creating uniform products continuously. You may even have one in your home, in the form of a little vacuum cleaner that self‐drives itself around the floor.
But for robots to make it to the next level, scientists think they’ll need to be a bit more versatile. The robots scientists are imagining look nothing like the stiff creatures you might be thinking of. No need for an awkward robot with stiff legs that attempts to walk and act like we walk and act—researchers are hoping to cook up something entirely different from what we’re used to seeing.
