Question 4 of 5 Which statement best describes how the use of simile supports the overall
meaning of the passage?
Liam's white kitten lay curled up on the sofa like a snowball. The
kitten's white fur had earned her the name Frosty the Snowman, but her
feisty personality suggested that perhaps "Stormy might be more
appropriate. In just a few days, Frosty had pulled down the curtains in
Liam's bedroom, knocked a vase off the bookshelf, and sent the family
dog into hiding. The kitten was a mini-tomado. The white ball of fur
pounced and hissed commandingly, just as a sudden storm shows its
power with thunder and lightning.
A. The simile "like a snowball' suggests that the kitten is beautiful
and peaceful, which creates a contrast with her unpleasant
behavior.
B. The simile "curled up on the sofa' creates an understanding of the
kitten's tiredness after her wild behavior.
C. The simile "like a snowball' enables the reader to picture Frosty's
beautiful fur, which reflects her personality.
D. The simile 'curled up on the sofa" compares Frosty to a pillow,
reinforcing her quiet, reclusive nature.

Which excerpt from the awakening best highlights the elation edna feels when she thinks of robert? the morning was full of sunlight and hope. edna could see before her no denial—only the promise of excessive joy. she lay in bed awake, with bright eyes full of speculation. “he loves you, poor fool.” he would come to her in the afternoon or evening, sit and roll his cigarette, talk a little, and go away as he had done the night before. but how delicious it would be to have him there with her! robert did not come that day. she was keenly disappointed. he did not come the following day, nor the next. each morning she awoke with hope, and each night she was a prey to despondency. his horses were full of mettle, and even a little unmanageable. she liked the rapid gait at which they spun along, and the quick, sharp sound of the horses' hoofs on the hard road.
