What is a simile?

A simile is a device of speech that compares two things explicitly. Similes vary from metaphors in that they highlight similarities between two objects by employing comparison terms like as "like," "as," "so," or "than," whereas metaphors generate an implicit comparison.

Similes are useful because they allow the speaker or author to make more expressive and emotive comments than if they were literal. A simile is a figure of speech used to compare two or more items that have comparable qualities. It makes the comparison using terms like 'like' or 'as'.

After extended use of the drugs that treat HIV, the virus often becomes resistant and the drugs no longer work. True or False

Answers

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome over time (AIDS). AIDS is the condition of an organism in which a progressive decline in the immune system allows dangerous infections and the inability of an organism to naturally defend itself from them. HIV infects vital cells in the human immune system. Controlling HIV / AIDS usually involves the use of several antiretroviral drugs, both because of the different types of organism in humans, and because of the resilience of the virus acquired during treatment with the same drugs. In some parts of the world, treatments have become so successful that HIV has become a chronic condition, with very rare progress in AIDS.

Your statement is true.

It is 'true' that the extended use of the drugs that treat HIV the virus becomes resistant and the drugs no longer work. 

A dialect is ungrammatical because it differs from standard english. true false

Answers

It depends on who you ask, but according to syntacticians, specialists in syntax or sentence structure, as long as a sentence follows a recognisable structure and is used by people it is grammatically correct. It's grammatically correct within that dialect. 

Most people would disagree and say that dialects are ungrammatical because they deviate from standard English, but this is probably because they want you to learn to speak English to a certain standard. From an official standpoint, dialects are just as grammatical as standard English.

Song of the Open Road

by Walt Whitman

Afoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.

Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—I myself am good-fortune;
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .

From this hour, freedom!
From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute,
Listening to others, and considering well what they say,
Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.

I inhale great draughts of space;
The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.

I am larger, better than I thought;
I did not know I held so much goodness.

All seems beautiful to me;
I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you.

I will recruit for myself and you as I go;
I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;
I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them;
Whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me;
Whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.

Question 1
Part A

What is a theme of "Song of the Open Road"?


Traveling is a freeing experience that allows for independence and self-reflection.

Being rooted in one place doing everyday activities is better than wandering alone on the open road.

Taking a vacation allows someone to spend meaningful time with friends and family.

Only when people are traveling can they truly prioritize the needs of others over their own needs.
Question 2
Part B

Which two quotes from the poem best help Whitman develop the theme identified in Part A?


"I will recruit for myself and you as I go; / I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;"

"Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, / Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."

"I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you."

"From this hour, freedom! / From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,"
