Answer:

B. A barely mobile hard roll

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly refers to one thing by mentioning another one. A metaphor is usually employed in order to provide clarity or to create a link between two ideas. In this case, a turtle is being compared to a "barely mobile hard roll." The comparison relies on the shape of a turtle's shell (roll), its resistance (hard) and the slow way a turtle moves (barely mobile).

Accounting Nights too warm for TV we’re flung outdoors to the porch, citronella candles scenting the space between us, our faces
Scrat [10]

1. The Connotations of the word "worth" are a) financial value and b) assets.

  • The speaker uses the abacus with her mother to analyze and summarize their financial worth.  Before the advent of calculators, the abacus served as a tool for counting financial figures.

2. The speaker discusses something more than financial worth when she stated that their worth was being counted or evaluated with an abacus to show that one should always account for their possessions, whether the possessions are financial or not.

  • Periodically, the speaker and her mother needed to determine their preparedness for the coming winter season.  During the winter, they would not have the opportunity to venture outside their closed doors to get things for the sustenance of life.

  • So taking account before the rain days is important in life, though it may sound tedious and mundane.

3. The speaker and her mother have to keep money "buried" in jars for safe-keeping.  Accountants are known for using professional techniques to safeguard the assets of their entities.

4. There is always an emotional or psychological reason for hoarding coins at home.  Keeping some cash within easy reach had always been more prudent than having every coin kept in the bank.

The experience of winter gloriously teaches that ready cash must be available at home and not always in the bank.  This practice is gradually becoming outdated with the advent of online banking and bank cards.

5. The closing word "foundation" in <em>Accounting by Natasha Trethewey</em> shows that money is important in a home, just as the foundation is to a building.

  • Money keeps the home together.  Time spent together doing some "accounting" is the cement of the home. A building on a strong foundation stands the test of the weather.

Thus, the art of accounting has remained a long-time practice connected with the determination of financial worth and value.
