Answer:

The metaphor he uses is "this chopping of civilized life", in which he means that you are forced along whatever current is controlling you and you have no control. A similar metaphor is located in lines 199-209, which are "the surface of the Earth" and "the path which the mind follows". Just like the first one talks about how you are controlled by an established current, these show that the human mind is easily influenced similar to how the Earth's ground is easily shaped and marked by the steps taken by otehrs. These state issues of non-individuality and how we don't develop our own ideas.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

It contains a <em>comma splice</em>.

Explanation:

Both comma splice and fused sentence are <em>writing errors</em>  that occur when we try <em>to join two independent clauses (</em> it has a subject and a verb and presents a complete thought)

Fused sentence occurs when we join two independent clauses without any punctuation ( I love books my favorite book is<em> The Catcher in the Rye</em> ).

Comma splice occurs when we join two independent clauses with a comma, like in the given sentence. To fix this error, we can: put a <em>semicolon</em> (<em>No one likes a bully; He has no friends.</em> ) or a<em> period</em> between these two sentences (<em>No one likes a bully. He has no friends.</em> ) or <em>add a conjunction </em>(<em>No one likes a bully so he has no friends.</em>)
