"Then" is used in an "if-then" scenario, to dictate chronological order. In other words, "If you jump off, then you will fall," or "he was attacked and then retreated."
"Than" is used for comparisons. In other words, "The egg was bigger than the pea," or "I'm stronger than you."

Normally than is comparing something like this "Steve wanted a red shirt rather than a blue shirt." "i like swimming every now and then" "he said it then why wouldn't he say it now?" "i would rather eat fish than frog." <span />

Answer:

She floated around the room so easily she

could be Phileas Fogg - Allusion

She floated around the room like a balloon - Simile

She floated around the room, moving in no

specific direction - Metaphor.

Explanation:

A similar is used when comparing something to another. A sentence bearing a simile is identified by the presence of "like" or "as"

This is shown in the answer above where a lady's movement was compared to a balloon floating.

A metaphor is also used in comparison but this time directly. The quality given to the subject may not necessarily be true.

In the example above, the lady was described as floating "floated around the room..." Also notice that people do not necessarily float but in this case her movement was directly described as floating.

Allusion is used to make reference to objects, persons, places or even events.

In the example above, the ladies movement was not only described as floating but Phileas Fogg was used in reference to it.

What is the meaning of soil
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

there are different meanings of soil. here are a few with some examples :

-"She soiled herself because her parents wouldn't take her to the bathroom." You can first assume it has to do with the bathroom because it says so in the text, now another definition of soil is dirt, or the top layer of the earth. using this definition you can assume it is dirty. Then another clue would be that SHE soiled HERSELF. Using these clues you can assume it means that she had to use the BATHROOM and because her parents wouldn't let her she went to the bathroom on herself.

-"The Gardner put some new soil down to help cover the gopher holes." You can now assume that soil has to do with gardening because it says so in the text. You can also infer that they used it to cover gopher holes. You can now get a better understanding because gophers like to dig holes in dirt. Using these clues you can predict soil is dirt.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

B. Joseph Asagai.

Explanation:

The novel "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry revolves around an African-American family and their struggle to be accepted in American society. The novel deals with themes of race, belonging, survival, family, etc.

Afro-centrism is a term that is used to study the African race and anything related to that particular race. And among the characters of the story, the best character who exemplifies that character of Afro-centrism is Joseph Asagai.

Joseph is one of the suitors of Beneatha, the daughter of Mama Younger. He is proud of his Nigerian background and even tried to help Beneatha to accept and appreciate their African heritage. His desire is to go back home and help his people. Even though he's in America, he did not forget his roots and believed that he can help improve his people.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
