1. <span>A. strength
The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.
2. </span><span>D. "Mapping the furrow exactly"
</span>
Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."
By the words "detestable" and "die", we can tell that the mood of this poem is dark and angry. The author obviously is not proud of what humans have done. Also, the word "encroach" makes the mood sad. The author points out what terrible things humans are and how rude we are (which is quite true, based on what happened on January 20th).
Well here the author says that inner voice of us reveals our feelings, regrets in other words what we live in our life is reflected inside of us. So he gives the example of water .Like our life, it runs quickly and our life also one day will be cut off which means it 'll come to an end. So this sheet of water is one of the pages of our life which is one part of in our long life journey.
i think its allusion and simile
The correct answer is <u>B: Most people are honest enough not to commit major theft.</u> The reason why is because one i did th test but the explanation behind it is that he says in the excerpt that "From Feldman’s perspective, an office worker who eats a bagel without paying is committing a crime; the office worker probably doesn’t think so." in context hes saying that most people are honest and will say they took something small like a bagel, but at the same time they wouldn't think of a bank robbery or something.
That's how I see it, I hope i helped have a great day and good luck with class.
