I JUST NEED HELP IDENTIFYING THE FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE!! The poem must rhyme, include repetition, a simile, metaphor, personification, and alliteration. Please identify the figurative language used by indicating the type (M for Metaphor, S for simile, etc.).

My work:
My family and I live in Chicago
My family is poor and leaves me to work all day
We live in an apartment that is way too small for us
There is barely any room to sleep

My only friend is the couch and it has no smile
Because it is worn and faded, it has been here a while
Being at home is boring so I decide to take a walk
This gets me thinking and I begin to talk

Living in this poor neighborhood is like watching paint dry
Everything we own it either smells or looks as if it is going to die
Just like rotten food
I just want to move into a shiny new neighborhood

Yet like so many before it broke us too
Still with no financial security we make the move
We have to find a way to push through
In order to make a countermove

Every warning heard was tossed away
For now all we want to do is stay
We stick out as though we're in a spotlight
But we aren't going anywhere without a fight

We are trying to find a home for all of us to live
But the prices are too high
So together we have to thrive
Onwards upwards we strive

Answers

Answer 1
Repetition (R), Simile (S), Metaphor (M), Personification (P), and A (Alliteration)

You got down personification with, "My only friend is the couch and it has no smile," because you gave this object human-like qualities.

"Living in this poor neighborhood is like watching paint dry" is the first of a few similes I find. You are comparing two things using the word "like" (or "as".)
This line, "Everything we own it either smells or looks as if it is going to die / Just like rotten food," is also technically a simile because you're comparing the things you own rotting just like food using the word "like."
Here, "We stick out as though we're in a spotlight" as well, because you use the word "as."

I guess you could technically argue the first two lines, "My family and I live in Chicago / My family is poor and leaves me to work all day," are examples of repetition, but it'd be better if it was done more often.

I don't really find any examples of alliteration or metaphors.

If you're confused about either of those, alliteration would be something like "My family's financial fight finds us frugal." It's having a lot of words start with the same sound. For some reason, people thinks that sounds good.

Metaphor can be tricky. It's like similes, but instead of saying "this thing is like this other thing," you say "this thing IS this other thing."
Instead of, "my life is like living in hell," you'd say, "my life IS hell." You're making a statement comparing things that aren't actually alike but have something in common. It helps give the reader a feeling to identify with or even can act as a sensory (visual, auditory, etc.) aid.

I'll try to be around if you need more help.

Hello!

The correct answer to this question is C: rate.

Volume simply means how loud your voice is, but it does not mean that you are speaking too quickly. Pitch means the sound of your voice. For example, if you talk in a very squeaky voice, you are said to be speaking with a high pitch. Tone means the way that you are speaking. When you are happy and you speak excitedly, or angry and you speak as if you are annoyed, these are examples of tone.

When narrator tell stories from their own perspective and use the pronouns i, me, and we, which point of view is indicated?

Answers

the point of view indicated is first person, where the narrator is the main character telling the story using "I"

Answer:

First person point of view.

Explanation:

The first person narrator is most often part of the story that is being told, that is to say, the narrator is a character in the narration. It can also be the case that the narrator is only recounting the events from his own perspective without fully being immersed in the actions of the narration. A good example of both kinds of first person narrators is Don Quixote, where the narrator at some points of the story seems to be part of the story, since it is said that the first part of the novel that he published created consequences that are developed in the second part of the novel, and at some points, he claims to only be narrating the events in the novel, since he is the one who found the manuscripts telling the story about the Quixote, and he is only transcribing them.

The answer is A: I gazed at the bright blue sky and the trees filled with lush green foliage. How could anyone spend time looking at a screen when he could look at this?

Sensory language is, in writing, one of the many ways available for an author to try to make the reader connect to an image, a scene, a description, or an event in any text.

Sensory language appeals to the five senses that human beings have available to perceive the world and themselves. It is a way for the writer to make the reader experience what´s written. In this passage, the writer invites the reader to look at the sky and the trees and compare that experience to watching a screen.


During the investigative process of writing a research paper, the researcher learns to do which of these? Select all that apply.

1.select facts
2.organize facts
3.evaluate facts
4.analyze facts
5.dispute facts
6.revise facts

please help! thank you

Answers

I think it's 1,3,4,6 I hope his helps

Answer: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6

Explanation:

During the investigative process of writing a research paper the researcher has to learn to do the six things previously listed because each one is important to have a good final work; however, 5 of them are essential to the investigative process.

1.      SELECT FACTS: While investigating, the researcher has to develop the ability to select those facts that help him to prove his hypothesis and serve as a check material. This is very important because every serious investigation paper has to be well-argued.

2.      ORGANIZE FACTS: Having a structural methodology is needed to establish conclusions properly. If an investigator forgets to organize his facts he would be in trouble later when the time to write comes.

3.      EVALUATE FACTS: During the investigation process all the investigators are used to modify some things in order to improve its final paper quality; to achieve it, it is necessary to the investigator to maintain himself in a state that allows him to question the facts that he is going to incorporate into research.

4.      ANALYZE FACTS: To evaluate facts it is necessary to first analyze their relevance within the objectives and research purposes, so this point is in close relationship with the previous one.

5.      REVISE FACTS: As a part –and before- of the analyzing and evaluating process, the investigator has to revise all the facts that exist before selecting them. At this point we can even establish an order:

First, revise facts(1), then analyze them (2), then select the most important and relevant to the investigation (3), then organize (4)and finally evaluate them (5).

Note: The 5 number of the list “dispute facts” belongs to the discussion part, where the investigator, already having his results, dispute and compare what is he saying with the research area literature.

In "The Chrysanthemums," the interaction between Elisa and the traveling repairman helps develop the story's theme about taking risks. Describe their interaction and explain how it helps to develop the story's theme.

Answers

In "The Chrysanthemums," Elisa is a woman who is unhappy with her life. However, this unhappiness is not obvious, and it is likely that even Elisa is not sure of what this dissatisfaction is. However, as readers, we can see that Elisa feels trapped in a conventional life with no excitement. She does not feel passionate love for her husband. Similarly, her husband does not feel much love for her, and he is happy to see her reduced to a role that does not fulfill her.

When the travelling repairman arrives, the theme of risk is enhanced. We can see that Elisa feels that her life needs more passion and adventure, and this can be found in the repairman. She acts in a way that is risky for a married woman, but he seems to reciprocate. This feeling of risk brings hope to Elisa and to the reader, However, towards the end we see that Elisa's situation remains unchanged.

Elisa's interaction with the travelling repairman in The Chrysanthemums showcases her emotional vulnerability and desire for a more fulfilling life.

In John Steinbeck's short story The Chrysanthemums, the interaction between Elisa and the travelling repairman reveals key aspects of the story's theme about taking risks.

Initially, Elisa is portrayed as a strong, capable woman who tends her garden with great care. When the repairman arrives, she is suspicious and guarded, but as they converse, she begins to open up, especially after he shows interest in her chrysanthemums. This leads her to share her gardening passion and ultimately give him chrysanthemum shoots. This moment of vulnerability represents Elisa taking an emotional risk. She allows herself to hope and connect, briefly envisioning a more adventurous and fulfilling life. However, when she later discovers the discarded chrysanthemum shoots on the road, it is a stark reminder of her emotional exposure and the transient nature of her dreams. This interaction underscores the theme of taking risks, suggesting that vulnerability and hope are integral to the human experience, even when faced with disappointment.
