Answer: A) Metaphor.

Explanation: a metaphor is a figure of speech that consists in making a direct comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, in order to create an image in the reader's mind. In the given sentence, we can see a clear example of a metaphor that compares Janet's eyes to two bright emeralds (without using the words "like" or "as" to make the comparison), so the correct answer is option A.

If you were to write a poetic tribute, how would you personify the spirit of the united state today?

Romashka [77]

<u>Poetic tribute about the spirit of the United States:</u>

My nation is for adoration

So state its valleys

Where old waterways stream

The round trip of life

Under the pleased eye of winged creatures

Embellishing the sky.

O wonderful for roomy skies,

For golden floods of grain,

For purple mountain majesties

Over the fruited plain!

Love America Love America once more.

Love the fantasy it used to be.

Love the pioneer on the plain

Looking for a home where the Mind smiles

Be that as it may, the most bizarre thing yet was a fly without wings

Once as a fly it played in the stars

Singing, with open mouths, with happy soul for the country!

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

For me I wish someone had taught me that getting along with people well is actually far more important than being superb at your job. I saw it 1000 times that the easier-going person got promoted and the more determined workaholic who really knew their stuff were passed over. I never learned how to small talk.

I was told several times that college is the most important time of a person’s life and that the relationships made then are crucially important down the line. I spent far too much time becoming an outstanding student/MD and far too little time complimenting the nurses and administrators, etc., always willing to linger for small talk even if patients were waiting on me. It took a long time for me to realize that no one cared how expert I was as long as I completed the minimum necessary work, and the patients’ outcomes were of scarce importance to them.

Now with internet access it’s much easier to maintain relationships, although the substance seems much shallower than a handwritten snail mail letter from generations ago when literacy was really valued and letters were creative.

I’ve never spent time arguing since it always seemed pointless to me. I was right. I think of the thousands of arguments I've witnessed over the years and the nonsense I put up with with so many combative personalities. If only I knew then that people cannot communicate properly when arguing so it’s a complete waste of time for everyone. I decided many years ago to never sit through such nonsense and simply say “let’s table this until everyone is calm” and then I exit.
