Olivia was the strongest player on the team, but she knew she couldn't do it alone. Giving her most inspiring pep talk, she was a field general inspiring her troops as they went to battle. What type of comparison is used in this text? (5 points) Question 2 options: 1) Analogy 2) Category 3) Comparison 4) Contrast

1) Analogy.

Explanation:

An analogy is the use of comparison between two or more things with each other for the purpose of clarifying or giving an explanation. It provides similar aspects of the compared things or ideas.

In the given passage, Olivia is compared to a field general who's giving a speech to inspire and imbibe confidence in her team. This is an example of making an analogy with Olivia and a general, with both being leaders and inspiring their 'men' with the confidence they'd need to carry on in their work.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
