Answer:

In "O Captain My Captain" by Whitman, The extended metaphor of the poem compares President Lincoln to a captain steering the "ship of state" which means guiding the union through the civil war.

Explanation:

An extended metaphor means; A metaphor that unfolds across multiple lines or paragraphs of a text, making use of multiple interrelated metaphors in an overarching one. The "captain' of the title however, becomes less essential to the progressive success and unity of the nation as it seemed in the beginning. because at first the "captain" (President Lincoln) is seen as entirely responsible for the safe return of the ship home.

But, the citizens continue to rejoice after their captain has fallen, they did not let the grief of the assassination on the president stop them from continuing their celebration as well as moving on with their lives.

Why does guck decide to steal back the sisters money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?
krek1111 [17]

Why does Huck decide to steal back the sisters' money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?

They are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

They are kind, generous, and friendly to him.

They are much younger than he is and will be sent away.

They are better off financially than most people.

We can actually infer here that Huck decides to steal back the sisters' money because he saw that Dauphin doesn't deserve it. Huck then hides it in a coffin.

The thing about them that he has rarely encountered in other people is that they are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

Thus, option "A" is correct.

<h3>What is Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?</h3>

"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is actually known to be a novel that was written by Mark Twain. It was published first in 1884.

We see that Huck actually saw that Dauphin didn't actually deserve the money.

Thus, option "A" is correct.
