How can the author's use of similes help to communicate a message to the reader? (Four sentences)

English
1 answer:
borishaifa [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Simile - a kind of description. A simile compares two things so that the thing described is understood more vividly, eg 'The water was as smooth as glass. A simile can create a vivid image in the reader's mind, helping to engage and absorb them.Generally, a writer uses similes to enable the reader to imagine in his mind what the writer is saying. This is why a writer compares one thing to another with which the reader is familiar. The speaker compares his love to a red rose that has just bloomed.Writers often use similes to introduce concrete images (like boxes of chocolates) into writing about abstract concepts (like life). Readers are more explicitly aware of the direct comparison that's being made with a simile compared to a metaphor, which is often more poetic and subtle.

hope it helps ya :-)

Which of the following sentences use apostrophes correctly? Check all that apply.
olasank [31]

Answer:

B). The team’s report wasn’t due until next Friday, but it was turned in early.

C). Jack wasn’t hired in December ’07; he was hired in January ’08.

Explanation:

The apostrophe (') is demonstrated as the punctuation mark that is either employed to show the contraction or omission of numbers or letters or to reflect the possession.

As per the question, options B and C employ the apostrophe correctly as they correctly show the possession of the report of the team as 'team's report' and contraction of auxiliary verb 'was not' as 'wasn't'(omission of the letter 'o'). The first option is incorrect as it wrongly displays the use of possession(for words ending with letter 's') and the last option must include a contraction('it's) instead of possession. Thus, <u>options B and C</u> are the correct answers.
