Answer:

A. to show that cleaning the room will be a huge task.

Explanation:

         We do not know what poem this is referring to, but this poet uses a simile or metaphor. This is a type of figurative language and is not meant to be "taken literally." This rules out options C and D because there is not an <em>actual</em> elephant.

         While B could still be an answer, the narrator could have cleaned up their room once before without it feeling like a big task. Since they chose to compare it to an elephant specifically, we can guess that the answer will be "A. to show that cleaning the room will be a huge task."

Answer:

We would need to see the passage, but I suggest looking back in both stories and looking at each of the narrators writing styles, such as if it is first person, second person, etc: See if the narrator's have something in common in their writing styles, and then just use evidence from the text and a good way to do that is using ""

Explanation:

I hope this helps.
