Before answering the question, let us explain what a Simile is:

According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, a Simile is “figure of speech comparing two unlike things that is often introduced by like or as (as in cheeks like roses)”

It is similar to a metaphor but simpler and easier to understand and the metaphor is not presented by the comparatives “as” or “like”.

The phrase from “Barrio Boy” that contains a simile is:

"...a large hole that looked like a horse collar."

The exact simile is: <em>a large hole</em> like<em> a horse collar.</em>

write three to four sentences in which you compare and contrast seamus heaney’s poem “digging” and the haiku by bashō
vodomira [7]

In terms of structure, the poems are very different. The haiku is only three lines long and discusses a single moment in time; “Digging” is much longer, has many stanzas, and jumps between time periods. There are some ways in which the poems are similar, however. For example, the speakers of both poems discuss how their writing is related to and inspired by farming or gardening.

What characteristics of an epic hero does Gilgamesh exhibit in the excerpt? Select 2 options. compassion for his enemy courage i
Dominik [7]

Read the excerpt from Gilgamesh: A New English Version.

[Gilgamesh and Enkidu] charged at Humbaba like two wild bulls.

The monster let out a deafening cry,

his roar boomed forth like a blast of thunder,

he stamped and the ground burst open, his steps

split the mountains of Lebanon,

the clouds turned black, a sulfurous fog

descended on them and made their eyes ache.

Then Shamash threw strong winds at Humbaba,

the south wind, the north wind, the east and the west,

storm wind, gale wind, hurricane, tornado,

to pin him down and paralyze his steps.

He could not move forward, could not retreat.

Gilgamesh saw it, he leaped upon him,

he held a knife to Humbaba's throat.

What characteristics of an epic hero does Gilgamesh exhibit in the excerpt? Check all that apply.

compassion for his enemy

courage in battle

endurance in travel

connection to supernatural help

humility in defeat

Answer:

courage in battle

connection to supernatural help

Explanation:

An epic hero is the central character in a story or poem that accomplishes great tasks, usually with great strength, courage or help from the supernatural.

Gilgamesh showed his courage when he took on the great monster Humbaba and he also had supernatural help when Shamash intervened to help Gilgamesh defeat Humbaba.
