what are two similes in Twain’s story. what is the effect of each?
You have not informed which Mark Twain story you are referring to, which makes it impossible to answer your question. However I can help you by showing what a simile is and what its effect is within a story.
A simile is a figure of speech that has the ability to compare two objects, beings or situations, which are very different from each other, but which have a certain similarity that allows this comparison to be made. In other words, we can say that the simile is a comparison of different but analogous elements.
Within a text, the simile is used to extend a meaning and better explain an argument, making the comparison so that the meaning of something is easily perceived and established.
An example of this can be seen in the following sentence, which was written by Mark Twain: "Dan'l give a heave, and hysted up his shoulders so like a Frenchman, but it wan's no use he couldn't budge; he was planted as solid as an anvil, and he couldn't no more stir than if he was anchored out."

An article is a form of writing which is done keeping in mind a particular topic. It can be published in newspapers, school magazines, fashion magazines, etc. The following article is about the experiences of online schooling in recent times.
The article for the school magazine about the experiences of online schooling is as follows:
Due the global pandemic, people have been restricted to their homes. This has made going outside for the purpose of work or education difficult. Technology has proved to be a savior in these difficult times. People are able to work from the comfort of their homes. It has also enabled students to continue their education through online classes.
Teachers have started to make online classes as comfortable and efficient as they can so that the learning of the children does not stop. In these times when people are not allowed to meet each other, it gives children a small relief as they can interact with one another and have a little semblance of a normal routine.
The major drawback that seems to be associated with online classes is that not every student has the access to the technology necessary for joining in on these online classes. Many steps have been taken by schools to make online schooling available to everyone.
Though these are extremely difficult times, people can support each other and help each other in any way possible. Parents and teachers have been working hard too to help the students in continuing their educations, even if it is from their homes.

What technique makes both excerpts effective? the use of repetition an appeal to logic an appeal to credibility the use of imagery
Answer:
The use of repetition.
Explanation:
Repetition is elucidated as the literary device in which the author involves repetition of certain words or phrases in order to emphasize or highlight a particular significant idea and make it more clear, effective, and noteworthy for the readers.
In the given two excerpts from "The American Dream” speech by Martin Luther King Jr. and 'Governor George Wallace's inaugural address, the 'repetition' has been used as a technique to highlight the key ideas efficiently. In the first excerpt, the repetition of the word 'dream' emphasizes King's idea of 'dream view of America where men of all races, of all nationalities and of all creeds can live together as brothers.' In the second excerpt, the repetition of the word 'political' and 'race' throws light upon Wallace's idea of ' respecting the rights of others to be separate and work from within their political framework.'

Answer:
It was caused by an H1N1 virus with genes of avian origin. Although there is not universal consensus regarding where the virus originated, it spread worldwide during 1918-1919. While the 1918 H1N1 virus has been synthesized and evaluated, the properties that made it so devastating are not well understood. With no vaccine to protect against influenza infection and no antibiotics to treat secondary bacterial infections that can be associated with influenza infections, control efforts worldwide were limited to non-pharmaceutical interventions such as isolation, quarantine, good personal hygiene, use of disinfectants, and limitations of public gatherings, which were applied unevenly

1. In Chapter 1 of The Blind Side, what is the significance of former football player Lawrence Taylor both to the title itself and the overall narrative of the book? Describe what the “blind side” actually is in the game of football.
Answer:
Lawrence Taylor's act of successfully and painfully sacking Joe Theismann led to a new structure and pattern/ concept of hiring stronger, bulkier bigger linemen to see to the blindside of the quarterback.
The "blindside" in football is the 'unnoticed' side of a player's eyesight view, which is the left side for a right-handed quarterback and right for a left-handed quarterback. This area is to be protected by the linemen while the quarterback attempts to throw the ball.
Explanation:
Michael Lewis's book "The Blind Side," tells the true story of impoverished Michael Oher and his rise to becoming one of the most wanted linemen in league history. This book also became an Oscar award movie and led to a massive change in the way football players are recruited, especially the offensive linemen position.
Chapter 1 of the book focuses on the game of football between the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins. And in this game, Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor sacked Redskins' quarterback Joe Theismann, breaking his bones so much that his career in football was destroyed. And with numerous instances of Taylor's sacking of numerous other players, the need to rethink the role of the linemen who are on the blind side of the player began to emerge. Taylor, thus, led to the new perspective of coaches and teams hiring stronger and bulkier offensive linemen.
The "blind side" in the game of football is the left side of a right-handed quarterback's (or vice versa) which is not visible to them when he turns to throw the ball. It is here that the linemen have the important duty of making sure the quarterback is safe from any 'attack' or tackling.

Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."
Maybe she'd like to help me coach Raymond; she
obviously is serious about running, as any fool can see.
And she nods to congratulate me and then she smiles.
And I smile. We stand there with this big smile of respect
between us. It's about as real a smile as girls can do for
each other, considering we don't practice real smiling
every day, you know, cause maybe we too busy being
flowers or fairies or strawberries instead of something
honest and worthy of respect... you know ... like being
people.

HELPP!! write a summary of ANY book, make sure grammar, punctuation, and spelling are ALL correct. NO PLAGIARISM. It has to be your own summary that you just thought of now!
Answer:
Explanation:
My summary of a book is from the book "Half-Broke Horses" by Jeanette Walls. This book is about the life of her Grandmother, Lily Casey Smith. Fiercely independent and resourceful, Lily's no-nonsense attitude allowed her to thrive even in the face of natural disaster, personal tragedy, and reductive attitudes toward women. Lily respected people who did not complain about their lot in life, and was extremely hardworking. Lily was also a flapper, a sharp-shooter and herself was respected. She raised two children, Rosemary and Jim Jr. She was married to Jim Sr. The “Half-Broke Horses” title represent people who can never be quite tamed by society. Half broken horses are those that are not entirely wild, but also not entirely submissive to riders yet. This is because she takes her wild Arizona desert living family and places them all in the big Arizona city and they are all miserable. There is a lot of crime and they did not have the same freedom they did in the countryside. But, of course, this is not the first time she was in a city. She also lived in Chicago and hated it. Her friend died after her hair was caught in a wringer and killed her. She also had a bigamist husband. That was her first husband. Lily Casey Smith died from Leukemia on November 1, 1967. RIP Ms. Smith.

Arnold is no longer a cleared DoD employee, and he is now writing a military spy thriller novel. Arnold is including information and events in his book that he has experienced throughout his DoD career. Does Arnold have to submit his book for a prepublication review before submitting his book for publication?
Answer:
Yes, Arnold needs to submit his book for pre-publication review before publication. This is because, before he started working for DoD, he must have signed some Non-Disclosure agreements not to discuss some informations or technologies which he came across in the organization.
The pre-publication review would help to ensure that, there is no sensitive information about DoD which he put in his book for public consumption.
