Which of these excerpts from the iliad by homer uses an epic simile?
good heaven! what active feats yon artist shows!
what skilful divers are our phrygian foes!
mark with what ease they sink into the sand!
pity that all their practice is by land!
. .
then rushing sudden on his prostrate prize,
to spoil the carcase fierce patroclus flies:
swift as a lion, terrible and bold,
that sweeps the field, depopulates the fold;
now flaming from the zenith, sol had driven
his fervid orb through half the vault of heaven;
while on each host with equal tempests fell
the showering darts, and numbers sank to hell
for lo! the god in dusky clouds enshrined,
approaching dealt a staggering blow behind.
the weighty shock his neck and shoulders feel;
his eyes flash sparkles, his stunn’d senses reel

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.
