it may be cold up north, but down in the gulf they are fishing—scudding among the florida keys in a little white sailboat, landing for lunch on a strand as snowy as the northern streets, where the shimmering distances of white sand are paved with shell and pearl, and the tide thrums out its old song under the palms.
what sort of effect does the author attempt to create by using the simile in paragraph 8?
a) the simile is meant to signify how the author prefers the snowy streets of the north to the white sands of the florida keys.
b) the simile of snowy streets demonstrates how cold and unwelcoming the beaches of the florida keys can be to the unlucky fisherman.
c) the author wants to evoke an image of pure, white sandy beaches that look as if they were covered in snow, but are actually covered in hot sand.
d) the author is attempting to demonstrate how foolish fishing is by contrasting the cold beaches with the happy, welcoming streets of a northern town.
