Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes a comparison between two elements. This comparison must be promoted implicitly or explicitly and has the function of creating a new meaning and promoting an intensification of this concept. This makes the text deeper and richer, promoting greater reflection on the topics covered.

compare and contrast desiree's and armands reaction to the babys racial status and the consequences of these reactions
stiv31 [10]

Answer:Initially both are thrilled at the arrival of the baby. The baby's skin begins to darken. Desiree always loves the baby. The incredible fear that Armand harbors about how Desiree is supposedly mixed leads him to think that marrying her, being with her, giving her the attention that he did, and having a child with her has completely tarnished the name of his family and his home.

What is the phrase in the sentence: Ricky, going down the staircase backward, was very unsteady.
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Find the subject.  Who is doing something?  Ricky.  Ricky what?  Ricky was.  That is a complete sentence and it makes sense.  Ricky going does not make sense.  So, Ricky was.  What does very unsteady describe?  It describes how Ricky was.  It describes the verb, making "very steady" an adverbial phrase.  A prepositional phrase describes a noun. Nothing in this sentence describes Ricky.  "Going" is a helping verb. Ricky was going.  "Down the staircase backward," describes how Ricky was going, making it another adverbial phrase.

You didn't say what kind of phrase.  I hope I helped.
