Excerpt from picture perfect marie devers 1at the first yearbook meeting, i quietly sat in the back of the classroom and hardly said anything. unlike the other yearbook-club members, i found it hard to come up with catchy slogans to put under the pictures. while some students were outgoing and had no difficulty signing up sponsors on a daily basis, i was afraid to ask my grandmother, who owned a business in our hometown. when i finally did work up the nerve to ask her for a donation, she offered me some advice. 2she explained that she had been the photographer of her high-school yearbook. she pulled out the old crimson book and opened it up to a giant photograph that took up a whole page. a small group of kids crowded into the shot. i looked away from the photograph and up at my grandmother’s sentimental smile. the narrator became a photographer because a) she did not want to talk to people. b) her grandmother suggested she try it. c) her classmates begged her for pictures. d) she did not get any gifts like other students.

Which line in this excerpt from the great gatsby by f. scott fitzgerald contains a simile? about half way between west egg and new york the motor-road hastily joins the railroad and runs beside it for a quarter of a mile, so as to shrink away from a certain desolate area of land. this is a valley of ashes—a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat into ridges and hills and grotesque gardens where ashes take the forms of houses and chimneys and rising smoke and finally, with a transcendent effort, of men who move dimly and already crumbling through the powdery air. occasionally a line of grey cars crawls along an invisible track, gives out a ghastly creak and comes to rest, and immediately the ash-grey men swarm up with leaden spades and stir up an impenetrable cloud which screens their obscure operations from your sight.
