Read the excerpt below from Chris Jacobs' reflective essay called "Everlasting Wannabe." As you read, think about his analogy an

d how it helps get his point across.
Much like the Gobstopper, I resorted to changing my color as time went by. In my red phase, I briefly joined a dodgeball league. When I was orange, I played Dungeons & Dragons and collected Magic: The Gathering. Yellow was all about doing thankless crew work in the school's small theater group, and green played out in endless rewinds of Smashing Pumpkins tapes, including a Nine Inch Nails concert where I got bit in the arm for blocking someone else's view. Blue was spent in horror-movie marathons with two girls who secretly hated each other, and the people that I ran with while purple have sworn me to a secrecy I will never betray.

What point does the analogy of the Gobstoppers help the writer make?

The Gobstoppers show how sweet-natured the writer is.

They indicate that much like Gobstoppers, change can cause you to be unhealthy.

The Gobstoppers show how candy can be used to persuade others to like you.

They indicate that much like his favorite candy, he changed colors very easily.

The text may be better structured to aid the reader’s understanding by placing the information in a bullet list. (Option B).

<h3>What is a bullet list?</h3>

Being a keen traveler, I have visited some of the major cities in Asia:

  • Kyoto, Japan, where I ate sushi for the first time;

  • Bali, Indonesia, where I learned to surf.

Who hires daedalus -short explain
Setler79 [48]

The correct answer is King Minos of Crete.

King Minos angered the god Poseidon and so he wanted to have his revenge on him - therefore, he made Minos' wife Pasiphae fall in love with a white bull and mate with him, and as a result of that, Minotaur was born. Minos was embarrassed, and so he hired Daedalus and his son Icarus to make him a labyrinth where he could keep the monster until someone was strong enough to kill him. That someone was Theseus.
