'Theodore Taylor’s classic book, The Cay' takes place <em><u>during World War II </u></em>when<u><em> the Germans invade the small island of Curacao. </em></u>As a young boy, Philip, is very excited by the idea of war, which seemed like a game to him. But when <em><u>a German submarine attacks</u></em> the freighter he is traveling on to the United States with his mother, the war now becomes a reality. He is <em><u>injured and then becomes marooned with an old black man</u></em>, depending on this man for survival. <u><em>There are three major themes in The Cay: survival, sacrifice, and overcoming prejudice. </em></u>Philip <em><u>needs to reevaluate the stereotypes and prejudices</u></em> he has been raised to believe in order to <u><em>survive this ordeal</em></u>. <u><em>The Cay</em></u> is a gripping novel <u><em>that holds your attention until the very last page.</em></u>

I am not 100% sure on some stuff, but i hope it's correct! sorry i took so long, haha.

As you read lines 17–34, continue to cite textual evidence. • Underline a simile about the narrator, and in the margin, explain
ehidna [41]

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to the passage found in the book "Collections Close Reader: Grade 8."

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, a <u>simile</u> is a literary device that compares two things that exactly aren't similar or alike as though they were, in other to give a good description.

For a simile about the narrator: one good example is when read;

<em>"</em><em><u>Chatter like a monkey</u></em><em> when I command adult attention."</em> Here the author uses the expression "Chatterlike a monkey" to depict the talkative nature of the narrator when given attention, just as how a monkey makes noise.

For a simile about the mother:  one good example is when read;

<em>"She rises </em><em><u>against the sun like a skyscraper,</u></em><em> and when I draw her in my notebook, she takes up the entire page." </em>The mother's bold and courageous nature is compared to the height of a<em><u> skyscraper.</u></em>
