18. Read the following excerpt from Robinson Crusoe, in which Crusoe tells about his capture by
pirates:
At this surprising change of my circumstances, from a merchant to a miserable slave, I was
perfectly overwhelmed; ... for now the hand of Heaven had overtaken me, and I was undone
without redemption; but, alas! this was but a taste of the misery I was to go through, as will
appear in the sequel of this story.

gatsby's clothes have a symbolic meaning, as the use of colour and fabric in his clothing demonstrates his hope, dreams, and wealth. gatsby's clothing symbolizes his wealth through his torn shirt, his silver and gold suit, and his english shirts.

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.

lemme actually be useful and say i believe the answer is the first one.

the correct answer is option d. none of these. it is noted that options a, b, and c share the same content.

despite the valid answer provided at the last sentence of each of the options, a question/answer format shouldn't include humourous themed responses such as "you bet your thermal pj's we do." - unless of course, the answer is carried out in an informal environment. this could be replaced with a simple "yes" or "it is necessary".

the question should be re-phrased to a more appropiate syntaxis. instead of "do we need the greenhouse effect? ", it should be written as "is the greenhouse effect necessary? " in order to give it a general scope, instead of limiting the answer to the needs of "we" the humans.
