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>

_____ is a characteristic of realism. honest portrayal exaggeration melodrama romanticized life experience
melisa1 [442]

The correct option is “honest portrayal”. Realism is an artistic style that emerged in the 19th century in France, especially in painting and writing. The main purpose of realism is to portray accurately real life and places. Realism is opposed to the Romantic movement so the option “romanticized life experience” is not a characteristic of realism. Exaggeration and melodrama are not related to Realism since it depicts reality in a detailed and honest perspective.

What does Kabir liken Heaven to in “Tell me, O Swan, your ancient tale”?
Aliun [14]
In this poem, Kabir expresses that "... the fragrant scent... the woods of spring ... the bee of the heart... " will be found in heaven. Also, he begins this poem by asking the swan (his soul) where it's come from and where it's going by saying "<em>Tell me, O Swan, your ancient tale." </em>This may be an allusion to heaven as it references its age and its relation with said swan. Therefore, your best answer is <em>the ancient tale.</em>

How does the title, "A Modest Proposal," tell the reader that the piece is satirical?
Sphinxa [80]

The correct answer is C. The author’s proposal is actually extreme and violent, not gentle as the title says.

Satire, similar to irony, is achieved when you are trying to mock something or someone, usually by exaggerating and writing the opposite of what is expected. So, the title A Modest Proposal is not modest by any means - Swift wrote in this text that poor people should sell their children to rich people as food in order to keep the economy going. You can clearly see how the title is satirical then.
