7 0

Homeric Similes, also known as Epic Similes, are elaborate comparisons between two different objects using like or as.

1: "I drove my weight on it from above and bored it home like a shipwright bores his beam with a shipwright’s drill that men below, whipping the strap back and forth, whirl and the drill keeps twisting, never stopping, so we seized our stake with it fiery tip and bored it round and round in the giant’s eye"

2: “It’s crackling roots blazed and hissed, as a blacksmith plunges a glowing ax or adze in an ice-cold bath and the metal screeches steam and its temper hardens, that’s the iron’s strength, so the eye of Cyclops sizzled round that stake.”

How is the story "A dogs tale" structured?
Nat2105 [25]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The story "A Dog’s Tale" by Mark Twain is structured as</em><u><em> “problem to solution.”</em></u><em> The right answer is</em><u><em> option C</em></u><em> here. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The story is narrated from the "point of view" of Allie, the dog and the protagonist. Aileen is misunderstood and experiences the ups and downs of life. She is subjected to suffering and cruelty because of the "shallow belief" of her inferiority amidst humans. The story shows the difference between the inconsiderate nature of humans and loyal nature of dogs. Allie saves her master’s baby from an accident but is misunderstood and beaten up brutally. Even when the misunderstanding gets cleared, she is not praised rather her puppy is killed by the master to prove his opinion on optics to his scientist peers. Indeed, this story evokes too many emotions. It encourages humans to reflect on their actions and have respect for each life.
