Answer:

Explanation:

Poems have shorter lines than paragraphs, and they are surrounded by white space. ... Line breaks and white space help readers know how to read a poem out loud and inside their heads. Sometimes one makes a weeny pause at the end of a line, to honor the rhythm and emphasis placed there by the poet.

Why does the author use this simile to describe the squeaky hinges in this sentence from the story?
Elina [12.6K]

It compares the hinges with something unfamiliar and scary.

Explanation:

A simile is a method for comparison of a thing with something different. It creates a realistic feeling to the situation, imagined or visualized distinctively.

Let us read the sentence from the story, as mentioned by the author.

"I pulled the heavy double doors open; the hinges squeaked like a platoon of lost ghosts."

The squeaky sound of the hinges because the door had not been used for a long time. The narrator is unfamiliar with what lies behind the door.

The hinges, compared to a platoon of lost ghosts, give a scary feeling to the sentence.

Hence, the answer is the second answer choice -

It compares the hinges with something unfamiliar and scary.
