Answer:
Two old friends whom I scarcely knew at all
Explanation:
<span>The one reason that Thomas Paine thinks the colonies stand a
good chance against the British was that the colonies had very less to lose in
the fight against the British. On the other hand the British had everything to
lose once the colonies freed themselves from the oppression. The colonies had
every resource to prepare arms for the fight against the British. The British
would lose out financially in a big way as the colonies would then stop paying
undue taxes that the British government charged. </span>
Answer:
How strongly two things are being compared
Explanation:
Both simile and metaphor are figures of speech used to compare two different, unrelated, things that share some kind of quality. However, there is a difference. The simile uses words <em>like </em>and <em>as</em>, while the metaphor omits them, stating that something is something else. This is why we can say that the metaphor is a stronger type of comparison.
