Paragraph #2: the quotation is an example of a metaphor. explain why. "i trust that none will stretch the seams in putting on the coat, for it may do good service to him whom it fits."

This quote can be considered a metaphor because it is comparing two things.

In this case, the metaphor compares the coat which should be a "perfect fit", it might be inferred that it does a reference to another specific situation. this is when a person is involved in something that is considered perfect so it is not right for him/her, one must make it "fit" in life.

the answer is both an appeal to ethos and logos (if that's what your question options were)

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
