In another figure of speech, the metaphor, the writer suggests a comparison without using like or as. Examples: a torrent of words (compares the speech to a swift river); spectators flocked in (crowd is compared to a flock of sheep) In the expression "He blockaded me with his chair," what are Wheeler's movements being compared with?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Wheeler's movements can be compared to a wall or cell where the person is trapped with no way of being free unless said blockade is removed.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The analogy could have been to a wall or a large object that closes off an exit. His movements could also be compared to a tank or ship maneuver designed to prevent an enemy from crossing a specific area.

What is a figure of speech?

A figure of speech, also known as a rhetorical figure, is a word or phrase that deviates from ordinary language usage in order to produce a rhetorical effect.

Metaphors, idioms, similes, ironies, antithesis, alliterations, personifications, and paradoxes are all common figures of speech.

A blockade is defined as "the act or means of barring goods or people from entering or leaving a location."

The metaphor could have been a wall or a large object that blocks an exit. His movements are also comparable to a tank or ship maneuver designed to prevent an enemy from crossing a specific area.

Thus, this way, Wheeler's movements are being compared.

1-She doesnt want to kill him as he reminds her of her deceased father.

2-Macbeth forgets to smear blood on the vests of the drunk stewards who shall be held culpable for his actions against the king.

3. Of hell.

4. He is proclaimed King, as Duncan is dead and his sons have fled.

5.She immediately puts on an act of greivance, claiming is could not happen in her own house..though in my opinion she was more worried about the house's reputation rather than the actual murder which could be a giveaway, though she did faint to shift the attention from the already disturbed Macbeth.

6.She treats his emotions as trivial and cowardlike, as if murder could be washed away like 'just a little water shall rid us of this deed'

7. Lechery, urine, sleep, nose-painting. All in all a masked description of Macbeth's insanity.

8.Macbeth does out of fear that they shall speak.

9.As they believe their father's murderer plans to take the throne, hence since Malcolm is heir to it, he shall be next to kill as well as Donaldblain. To protect their lives, they flee.

10. He was given the last promotion from the staff and respected by the King, who claimed he deserved more. This high respect the sovereignty had for Macbeth motivated the others to crown him.

11. Has murdered sleep.

12. Since the porter is drunk, his scene provides us with  drunken chaos. The description of a drunk is a description of Macbteh's descent into insanity after murdering the king, and the chaotic nature of the entire scene is reflective of how Macbths kingdom shall be in the future.

13. The action of killing the king, which what the two Macbeths have done.

14. The three witches he and Macbeth encountered.

15. He is incredibly remorseful, shaken and out of his mind. He refuses to be consoled, his guilt immense and fresh...

Write a persuasive paragraph? Why or why not in five paragraph

Answers

Answer:

Alcohol belongs in the category of psychoactive substances one can legally buy in almost any

country, according to certain criteria. Most often, this criterion is age; in the majority of cases, it

is set to 21 years. However, in a number of countries, such as Australia, China, and Russia, it is

set to 18 (ICAP). In the United states, calls for lowering the drinking age have sounded for a rather

long time; considering that alcohol can lead to unpredictable behavior and other negative social

consequences, the drinking age should not be lowered.

One of the first associations that come to mind when talking about alcohol is driving. For citizens

of the United States, having a car is seen as a must starting from the age when a teenager is

allowed to receive a driving license. According to data provided by the organization Mothers

Against Drunk Driving, in 2010, a high percentage of car accidents connected to drunk driving

(15.1% out of 10.228 individuals) was observed among young people aged between 18-20 years.

Respectively, if youths were officially allowed to consume alcohol from 18 years old, this index

of car accidents would necessarily be much higher. Moreover, the National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration claims that since establishing the drinking age of 21 in 1975, the number of car

fatalities among 18-20-year-old drivers in the United States decreased by 13%.
