In "Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi, the narrator compares the wait for her father to come home to "the same silence as before a storm" because:
The silence before a storm is broken by awful thunders and heavy rain. Similarly, the silence in her home as she, her mother, and her grandmother waited for her father to return could be broken by awful news.
- "Persepolis" is a graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi based on her life experiences as child in Iran during the revolution.
- In the story, the narrator is also just a child. Her father has left home to take pictures of the demonstrators out in the streets.
- Taking photos was forbidden, and her father had been arrested before.
- The family was now afraid something worse might happen to him.
- They waited for him in complete silence. The narrator compares that situation to the silence before a storm.
- It is that calm moment before something terrible happens.
- With the storm, it is the heavy rain and the thunders. With the family, it could be the bad news of the father's death.

Answer:Most of the sentences tel the author's POV. The POV is second person. Second person POV is when someone writes from your point of view.
I would use, "You may think you can just watch other people ski and do what they do, but taking lessons will teach you how to ski correctly." as the sentence that reveals the author's POV.
Explanation:
The correct answer is A. Compound object
Explanation:
In grammar, the object refers to the entity that is being affected by the subject (agent of the action) and the main action or verb. This means the object is the entity being acted upon and usually placed after the main action or verb. Additionally, a sentence with a compound object is one that contains two or more objects usually linked by coordinating conjunctions such as "like", "and", "or" and "neither".
In the case of the sentence "Mrs. Khan likes baseball and softball" the subject or agent that performs the action is "Mrs. Khan" the main action is "likes" and the object or entity being acted upon is "baseball and softball" which is composed by two objects or ideas separated by the coordinating conjunction "and". Considering the object of this sentence is composed of two ideas it can be concluded the object "baseball and softball" is compound. Therefore, the type of compound the sentence "Mrs. Khan likes baseball and softball" contains is a compound object.
