Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two things by saying the first thing is the second thing. Greta is obviously not actually a fish but she swims like one so the author used a metaphor.

WHY THE OTHER ANSWERS DO NOT WORK:

A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word. There is no joke being made here so the sentence is not a pun.

Personification is a form of metaphor in that human characteristics are attributed to nonhuman things. Greta is a human so this sentence is not an example of personification.

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using the terms "like" or "as". Neither of those phrases were used, so this sentence is not a simile.

The only option left is metaphor. :)

Engleza: Write a diary entry about a memorable day in your life. Use all 6 words in bold from the text: First, Next, After that,
vladimir2022 [97]
It's not that good by an example can be...

Dear Diary,
I remember when I was 8 years old, my parents took me to the zoo for the first time. I was thrilled and amazed by how many different animals there were. I can still remember how fast my heart was beating, and how many times I got scolded for running off, because I wanted to see another creature such as a giraffe.
The next most exciting thing after entering the zoo was that I was allowed to pat a lion cub. It had golden fur which felt smooth to touch, and pointy whiskers that poked my skin. After that I had small pink bumps on my arms from the times when the cubs whiskers had poked me.
I loved that day so much that when it was finally time to leave I was reluctant to go and threw a small tantrum, which washed away when my parents promised to take me again. So, that visit to the zoo was the most memorable day of my life, because of how I felt.

Ow does Geijer’s comment support MacGregor’s point?
Mrrafil [7]

Geijer’s comment supports MacGregor’s point because:

  • It illustrates the popularity of tea in Britain during the 1800s.

<h3>What is the main point of the text?</h3>

The passage highlighted the importance of tea to the British people in the 1800s and the beginning of the 1900s.

The figures that were portrayed in the passage support the point that tea consumption now marked the lives of the Britons. So, option C is right.

As it got cheaper, tea also spread rapidly to the working classes. By 1800, as foreigners remarked, it was the new national drink. By 1900 the average tea consumption per person in Britain was a staggering 6 lbs (3 kilograms) a year. In 1809 the Swede Erik Gustav Geijer commented:

Next to water, tea is the Englishman's proper element. All classes consume it . . . in the morning one may see in many places small tables set up under the open sky, around which coal-carters and workmen empty their cups of delicious beverage.
