a. detached

Explanation:

Read the following line from "Not Waving but Drowning." "Poor chap, he always loved larking And now he's dead" a. detached b. pleased c. objective d. critical

The speaker seems detached from what the victim is going through.

From the lines, depicted a man who was drowning in the water. He looks like one waving but he actually needed helped. Then the speaker mixed his point with the fact that he is moaning and inbetwixt death. the idea conveyed in the poem seems detached and not cohesive.

this question is grammatically incorrect and is illegible to me so i can not answer.

(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.
