Here are some pieces to get you started:

Some qualities of a feminist writer are that they examine the imbalance of power between men and women and call out ways that men assume power over women. Many feminist pieces looked at how women were treated in social settings as well as their homes, which is what "The Yellow Wallpaper" does.

"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a piece that shows how poorly women with mental illness were treated. The doctor (also her husband) underestimates the woman's state and adds to her descent into further madness. She locks herself in the room, feeling trapped inside the house, her mind, her body. This mirrors the sense of feeling trapped in a marriage where the man has all of the control and she is not allowed equality.

question:

#1: what is the simile that occurs in lines 43-47 (below)? give exact words for just the simile. #2: explain what frost means by this comparison.

it's when i'm weary of considerations, and life is too much like a pathless wood where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs broken across it, and one eye is weeping from a twig's having lashed across it open

answer to question #1: the simile that occurs in the text given (lines 43-47) is: ''life is too much like a pathless ''

explanation: a simile is a comparison of one thing with another thing and it is used to make a vivid description. it uses like or as. in the text, we can understand that the person is feeling weary of considerations and because of this, the person compares ''life'' to ''a pathless wood''.

answer to question #2: in this text we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations and compares life to a pathless wood.

explanation: the word frost means coldness and something covered by ice crystals but looking at the comparison made in this text, we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations therefore he/she compares life to a pathless wood.
