what type of literary device is " Wilson and I are different species: he’s an early bird and I am a night owl. The problem is if I move him to his own cage, who will I get to clean up the droppings? (Adapted from T.V.’s House.)"

provide explanation please

need this ASAP

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The literary device used is a metaphor.

Explanation:

A metaphor is when a comparison is made by using things unrelated. This figurative speech uses descriptive words to talk about things by equating two things that are not necessarily related or connected.

In the given speech/ dialogue by Dr. House, he uses a metaphor to make comparisons when he talked about "[himself as] a night owl" while also adding that "[Wilson] is an early bird."

Additionally, he extends the metaphor when he talked of keeping Wilson in "his own cage". This compares Wilson to a bird kept in a cage.

Thus, the literary device used is a metaphor.

How does alphabet knowledge connect to children’s later success with decoding?

Answers

Answer:

makes it easier for them to understand

Explanation:

Decoding makes it easier for them to understand.

What is Decoding?

A crucial component of learning to read is decoding. Decoding allows readers to "sound out" unfamiliar words. Decoding some words is impossible.

Learning to "sound out" unfamiliar words is a crucial skill for reading. This ability is known as decoding. You might picture spies and top-secret decoder rings when you hear the word "decoding." That makes sense because writing is a form of coding. In order to represent sounds, symbols (letters) are used.

In kindergarten, children often begin learning how to decode. One-syllable words are first decoded by beginning readers before progressing to lengthier words.

Therefore, Decoding makes it easier for them to understand.
