Similes are literary devices that compares words with another directly, a bit different from a metaphor (Metaphors compare things indirectly related).

<h3>Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character</h3>

Correct option is B

The simile used to develop Mr. Shiftlet’s Southern gothic character through "The image reinforces the idea that Mrs. Crater and Lucynell are both damaged."

  • The "ugly words" of Mrs. Lucynell was that Shiflet was "a poor disabled friendless drifting man", but she also considers him capable enough to be her daughter's husband.
  • This way of addressing him by the woman who expects him to marry her daughter shows that the world or society he lives in doesn't have much care about others, everyone for themselves.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

You can read about his adventures in this pursuit of science in his book How to Build an Iron Man Suit. A book that is just as amazing as Iron Man himself. We met Barry – the Irish Tony Stark – who works here in the Netherlands at TU Eindhoven, to look at the Marvel Universe through his eyes. We found that Marvel superheroes are just around the corner. Barry, let’s ask right away: how much of the current Iron Man technology you see in the movies is based on real-life science? Barry W. Fitzgerald: We could be here all day talking about that. And that’s why I wrote the book, to demonstrate current scientific and technological advancements that could be used in a real Iron Man-like suit. When you ask people what the Iron Man suit does, they will immediately say: it flies. Also, it shoots rockets. But what they forget about are the secondary systems that are very important: it protects the wearer. There are life support systems, biomedical sensors, proximity sensors, and wound healing treatments. It allows Tony Stark to do things that he could not do before. It enhances his abilities and gives him extra stamina. At the end of the day, he’s just a normal person. Without the suit, he would get knocked down by anybody. He would have no chance against any of the super-powered individuals he goes up against. The suit allows him to do that, to fight and compete. It allows him to be a superhero on a level that you would expect of a superhero. But the suit protects him and heals him too.

maxonik [38]

Answer:Blake, Wordsworth and Coleridge were first-generation Romantics, writing against a backdrop of war. Wordsworth, however, became increasingly conservative in his outlook: indeed, second-generation Romantics, such as Byron, Shelley and Keats, felt that he had ‘sold out’ to the Establishment. In the suppressed Dedication to Don Juan (1819-1824) Byron criticised the Poet Laureate, Robert Southey, and the other ‘Lakers’, Wordsworth and Coleridge (all three lived in the Lake District). Byron also vented his spleen on the English Foreign Secretary, Viscount Castlereagh, denouncing him as an ‘intellectual eunuch’, a ‘bungler’ and a ‘tinkering slavemaker’ (stanzas 11 and 14). Although the Romantics stressed the importance of the individual, they also advocated a commitment to mankind. Byron became actively involved in the struggles for Italian nationalism and the liberation of Greece from Ottoman rule.

Notorious for his sexual exploits, and dogged by debt and scandal, Byron quitted Britain in 1816. Lady Caroline Lamb famously declared that he was ‘Mad, bad and dangerous to know.’ Similar accusations were pointed at Shelley. Nicknamed ‘Mad Shelley’ at Eton, he was sent down from Oxford for advocating atheism. He antagonised the Establishment further by his criticism of the monarchy, and by his immoral lifestyle.
