Iwas ignorant until my teacher’s words inspired me

how could this idea be expressed with a metaphor?

her words were light that brightened my dim soul
my teacher was like a lighthouse for weary travelers
the lecture grabbed the students, startling them
inspiration was felt by all, we left the lecture standing tall

Her words were light that brightened my dim soul.

Explanation:

First, we need to know that metaphor is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a what that is not literally true.

In this case, the inspiration you got through your teacher's words is expressed on 'words were light' (here the amazing words she used) and also, 'brightened my dim soul' (here the inspiration that 'illuminates' you)

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
