Which sentence most clearly contains an analogy? O A. My grandmother is a magpie who cannot resist buying herself new, sparkly costume jewelry anytime she can. O B. Guessing what you'll come up with next is like trying to find one particular grain of sand on a beach. O C. Everything James got involved with succeeded, like he was some kind of King Midas. O D. He looked like a sad puppy who'd been out in the rain all night. a​

Answer:

B) Guessing what you'll come up with next is like trying to find one particular grain of sand on a beach.

Explanation:

The correct answer is B. Sentence B contains a strong analogy of how hard guessing what you'll come up with next is. The reader can analyze the difficulty of guessing what to come up with next by providing specific example that it is as hard as finding one particular grain of sand on a beach. This sentence clearly shows an analogy because the readers can visualize the difficulty of looking for a particular grain of sand in a beach, thus they will understand that guessing what to come up next is indeed difficult.  

Analogy is comparing two things having similarities to explain an idea. It is commonly used to explain an abstract idea by comparing it with something concrete. For instance, analogy is used to explain an unfamiliar concept by providing a similar familiar or concrete idea that is more relatable and understandable. Unlike simile and metaphor that only shows similarities between two things, an analogy aims to explain or make a point about the comparison.

The Mystery of Loch Ness
By Kayden Mitchell

Of all the mysteries in the world, none has been as popular as that of the Loch Ness Monster. Perhaps the biggest mystery is whether it is convincing evidence or a simple desire to believe that keeps the myth alive.

Loch Ness is a lake in Scotland. The loch, or lake, is known for sightings of a mysterious monster. Most who see this monster, known as Nessie, describe something with a long neck and several humps above the water. Sometimes the "monster" is moving in these sightings, and sometimes it is still. Many have suggested that Nessie might be a plesiosaur (plea-see-a-soar), an aquatic dinosaur that was trapped in the loch after the last ice age.

The plesiosaur theory presents several problems. First, the plesiosaur is an air breather. Such a creature would need to surface often and, therefore, be seen more frequently. Second, it's unlikely that the same creature has lived in the loch since the last ice age. Today's creature would have to be the offspring of an original plesiosaur trapped long ago. This would suggest multiple creatures in the loch (needed to produce offspring). Again, sightings would be more frequent if this were the case.

So from a purely logical stand point, the existence of such a large and ancient creature is unlikely. But assume for a minute that it is possible. What would a plesiosaur need to live in an enclosed lake?


Tropical waters: Scientists believe plesiosaurs were warm-blooded. Like crocodiles and alligators, plesiosaurs would need to live in warm waters. The loch is very cold with temperatures averaging about 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 Celsius).
Food: Like other warm-blooded creatures, plesiosaurs would need a large quantity of food. If there is a group of Nessies, then even more food would be needed. Because the loch is full of silt (underwater dust) not much light gets into the deepest areas. So the food chain, which would depend on plankton, is very weak at its base. As a result, there is probably not enough food to support such a large creature.


However, the plesiosaur theory is not the only one. Many other ideas attempt to explain the sightings and "photographs." But two separate sonar surveys of the loch have not found any evidence of a creature larger than a salmon. The last survey1, completed in 2007 by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC), involved 600 different sonar beams. Using satellite navigation systems, the team made sure every inch of the loch was searched. The team found nothing.

With cell phones and digital cameras, one would think that sightings of Nessie would increase. This has not happened. The BBC team believes the legend of Nessie has endured because people see what they want to see. To prove this, the team used a fence post, raising it before groups of tourists. Afterwards several of the tourists asked to draw pictures of what they had seen drew pictures of a monster's head.
