Answer:

This is either a simile or a metaphor

Explanation:

I say this because, she is comparing the path to clichés and a metaphor is comparing 2 things using like or as and a simile is comparing 2 things WITHOUT using like or as. Hope this helps <3   -A middle schooler

Can you make correction for this essay.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:  

She is a housewife and she played an important role.   My mother is the most patient and diligent person I know. She always takes care of her family and never compares her child with others. Another quality that really stands out is her honesty .She taught us to be honest and I never heard my mother tell a lie. As for myself, my mother has been a huge influence on me. She has shown me how important it is to study hard.  I believe she is the reason why I have decided to study hard to change our life. I hope I can be patient and diligent as my mother does.

It was a Monday morning. Susan woke up with the aid of an alarm clock that has a vibrating pad under her pillow. As everyday, she went to brush her teeth, did a little exercise and went to have her breakfast. While having her breakfast, she thought "What if Mondays would not have been there...."  Susan never liked Mondays because it was the first working day after the previous weekend. She unwillingly went to her room to get ready for  school.

Suddenly she saw, the weather was raining heavily. She thought to go to school to enjoy the weather. One of her friend said that the road will be slippery when it rained heavily and it was very dangerous. Susan was speechless.

The bus driver picked up the phone and his phone accidentally fell off. Then the driver looked for his phone that fell under his feet. Susan was surprised and she again woke up and found herself in her bed. She hit her left toe to be sure, if that was not a dream again. But, it was reality. She looked outside her window. She was surprised to see a dream in her dream.​

What is the central idea of this poem? O captain my captain
Slav-nsk [51]

The poem is an elegy to the speaker's recently deceased Captain, at once celebrating the safe and successful return of their ship and mourning the loss of its great leader. In the first stanza, the speaker expresses his relief that the ship has reached its home port at last and describes hearing people cheering. Despite the celebrations on land and the successful voyage, the speaker reveals that his Captain's dead body is lying on the deck. In the second stanza, the speaker implores the Captain to "rise up and hear the bells," wishing the dead man could witness the elation. Everyone adored the captain, and the speaker admits that his death feels like a horrible dream. In the final stanza, the speaker juxtaposes his feelings of mourning and pride.
