Answer:

Popping up like corn.

Explanation:

In this text, we encounter a description of the grasshoppers that are present in Rainy Mountain. The author tells us that these grasshoppers "pop up" like corn. This is meant to describe the way the insects jump out of the grass. By using this simile, the author is able to create a vivid picture of the animals, and thus enrich his description.

Write a narrative essay in about 150 words essay about loyalty.​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

    What even is loyalty? The book definition of loyalty is "

the quality of being loyal." What is loyal? Loyal is "giving or showing firm and constant support or allegiance to a person or institution." Loyalty is definitely one of the strongest traits someone needs to have. How can you leave your wallet around an unloyal person? How could you marry an unloyal person? Being loyal is definitely something that sticks around in jobs, friendships, family, siblings, and relationships. Promising your loyalty does nothing, it's all about actions and how you will prove your loyalty. In jobs, being loyal to your coworkers and not spreading lies, stealing, and just creating conflict is a definite necessity. Sleeping at night knowing your significant other isn't doing anything bad behind your back is also a form a loyalty. Its about the trust you put into a person or thing, and how they prove it to you. Have you ever broken your promise of loyalty?

Explanation:

hihi hoping this is good enough, 160 words even.
