This is a quote from "Life of Pi" and I'm trying to figure out what kind of literary device it is, "My Roman soldier stood in th

e schoolyard one morning when I was twelve... He saw me and a flash of evil genius lit up his dull mind. He raised his arm, pointed at me and shouted, 'It's P*ssing Patel!'... I walked in last, wearing my crown of thorns". I'm thinking it's a metaphor but I'm not too sure. Can you also explain what kind of impact this quote would have on a reader (connection and empathy, make the abstract concrete, motivate the reader to act, feel or experience etc.)? Thank you!

Answer:

During this year when it snowed i found it pretty fun at one point because. I got to play in the snow and go ice skating. But as the snow got worse it was still fun but a little boresome because for a simple fact that I was for the most part suck in the house all day. But at times I notice that I spent a lot of time having quality time with my family doing fun things around my house like. Board games , playing on the consoles and being competitive against each other , air hockey in the game room and watching new movies on hbo max in our theatre room.

Than me and my mom also did a lot of diys on crystal glass, painting and sewing. So during the snow it was mostly fun than boresome for me i only got bored to wars  the end because the snow was going away and my family went back to doing the daily life to life things that we use to do be for we got trapped in the house from the snow.

Please help me please will give brainliest <br><br><br>short summary ​
alekssr [168]

Summary:

The clock ticked on, repeating and repeating its sounds into the emptiness. And the rain tapped on the empty house, echoing. At eight-thirty the eggs were shrivelled and the toast was like stone. The five spots of paint - the man, the woman, the children, the ball- remained. It sniffed the air and scratched the kitchen door. Behind the door, the stove was making pancakes which filled the house with a rich baked odour and the scent of maple syrup. In the cellar, the incinerator glowed suddenly and a whirl ofsparks leaped up the chimney. The dinner dishes manipulated like magic tricks, and in the study a click. Dawn showed faintly in the east. Among the ruins, one wallstood alone. Within the wall, a last voice said, over and over again and again, even as the sun rose to shine upon the heaped rubble and steam: "Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is..."
