In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>C. The simile suggests that Devon expects an exciting ride. Sitting in a rocket which is about to launch in outer space must definitely convey a feeling of excitement rather than boredom. On the other hand, this is a simile and not a metaphor because it includes the conjunction "like". While similes work according to the principle "A is like B", metaphors employ the principle "A is B".</span>

Which sentence in this excerpt from Elizabeth Cady Stanton's speech "Solitude of Self" conveys that it is important for women to
Sonbull [250]

Answer: The education that will fit her to discharge the duties in the largest sphere of human usefulness will best fit her for whatever special work she may be compelled to do.

In this excerpt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton complains of the fact that women's education is determined by her relationships to other people as mothers, sisters, daughters and wives. This is true even when women do not fulfill these roles (for example, unmarried or childless women). This is different from the education of men, which is pursued by considering him an individual in his own right. She argues that, whatever work women decided to perform, their being educated would allow them to perform them in a much better way than if they were ignorant.
