Explanation:

The given question refers to the following excerpt from a research paper:

The Johnstone family of Cheyenne, Wyoming has created a "family economy” in which members barter their services and homemade goods.

10) ‘Strangely, she lifted us up like a feather on a breeze.’ What is being compared in this simile from the passage? A) a feath

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

10. D 11. A 12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C

Explanation:

10. A simile is a figure of speech which involves the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind. This is used to make a description more emphatic or vivid. For example, you can say as brave as a lion. This simply means the person you are talking about is very brave just like a lion that is not usually fearful. The same is also applicable when you say 'she lifted us up like a feather on a breeze' (meaning just like a feather is so light weighted and can easy be carried by the air, so also the way the tornado lifted the car in the air; they felt so light). More examples of similes are 'As cute as a kitten; meaning the person being referred to is so cute'. 'As tall as a giraffe; meaning the person in question is so tall'. 'As sweet as a sugar; meaning the thing we are describing is so sweet just like a sugar'. 'My love for you is as deep as the ocean; meaning the kind of love you have for the person is just so much that it cannot be described'.

Simile usually makes our words more meaningful and so easy to understand. It gives an in depth meaning when we write by making our languages more descriptive and enjoyable. Similes is used by both poets, writers and songwriters for emphasis. Similes, when used can be very funny, creative, mean and serious.

11. The selection is told from the first person’s point of view. It is obvious the first person was trying to make others understand how he or she must have felt when the car sudden lifted them up in the air.

12. Oblivious in this context simply meant they absolutely were not aware of what was happening around them. They were so clueless at that point with no idea of what was happening at that point.

13. The author is trying to make us understand what it feels like when a tornado occurs and the fear that comes with it. The emotional trauma that comes with it; having full knowledge that a life can be lost as a result.

14. The most related idea to the theme of the passage is a ‘Life-Changing Experience’.

15 The author of the passage will strongly agree with the fact that ignoring warning signs can lead to life-threatening consequences and as such, we should never have to be ignorant of this.
