Answer:
Simile MetaphorExplanation:
The simile is the poetic device that allows the comparison of two different things, to form a broad, subjunctive and highly understandable concept by the reader. In the first sentence we can see the comparison between "men in windows" and "birds of prey on perches", two completely different factors, but when compared they provide an understandable meaning.
Metaphor is the device that makes a direct comparison between two terms that have a certain non-literal similarity, but that can be linked to each other. In the second sentence we can see this happening, when the speaker compares miserable people with parts of vegetables when they are withered.

52:59 Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer. but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle, feasting,—while fugitives went inland, running to call to arms the main force of Cicones.

Write rough draft informative essay on a Greek mythical character. Your essay will use research to summarize the plot of the myth and explain the mythical character’s cultural significance.
Answer:
The chosen character was Theseus.
Explanation:
Greek myths were very important for Greek society, as they explained life, nature, religion and the essence of man. Many of these myths brought characters that had a strong meaning for the society of that time. Among these characters we can mention Theseus.
The myth of Theseus begins with a narrative that presents that Athens was in debt with king of Crete, that was called Minus. To pay this debt, the Athenians had to send the most beautiful girls and the strongest boys to Athens, so that they could be sacrificed and given as food to the minotaur. Faced with this situation, the king of Athens sent his son, Theseus (who had a supernatural strength, as well as being brave, loyal and kind), among the young people who would be sacrificed so that he could kill the minotaur and free the Athenians from this situation. terrible. This is exactly what Theseus does, when he returns home victorious, he becomes king.
Theseus had a strong cultural significance for Greek society, because it represented a national hero who had the characteristics that the Greeks encouraged and believed they had, that is, for the Greeks, Theseus was the image of the population. That's because he was beautiful, strong, loyal, courageous, charitable and unbeatable.

Why do you suppose Soda and Darry didn't get much sleep?
Answer:
As the three brothers wait at the hospital to find out about their friends' conditions, reporters bombard them with questions. Finally, Darry convinces the reporters to leave, but the nurses still will not give Pony, Soda, and Darry any information about the conditions of Dally and Johnny (medical information is privileged and is only given to family members). Darry manages to convince the doctor that they, the three Curtis brothers, are the only real family that these two boys have, so the doctor gives them the bad news. Dally's one arm is severely burned, but he will eventually regain full use of it. Johnny is in critical condition; his back is broken and he is suffering with third-degree burns. If he lives, he will not be able to walk for the rest of his life. The realization that if he lives, he would have to stay in his parents' house, a place he hates, for the rest of his life is too much for the brothers. They decide to go home for the night.
