It can also serve to highlight the seriousness of the surrounding material by creating a contrast.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: The Tempest

Read the extract and answer the question

Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again.And then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.

Here stood our ancestral home
The crumbling wall marks the spot
Here a sheep was led to the slaughter
To appease the goods and atone
For fauilts which our destiny
Has blossomed into crimes
There my cursed father once stood
And shouted to us, his children
To come back from our play
To our evening meal and sleep.

Each profession, intellectual or manual, deserves consideration, whether it requires painful physical effort or manual dexterity, wide knowledge or the patience of an ant. Ours, like that of the doctor, does not allow for any mistake. You don't joke with life, and life is both body and mind. To warp a soul is as much a sacrilege as murder.

''The flag of knowledge and morality'' illustrates

Maelezo ya Majibu

The phrase "the flag of knowledge and morality" is an example of a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two things without using the words "like" or "as". In this passage, the teacher is compared to a soldier, and the knowledge and morality that the teacher imparts are compared to a flag. The metaphor emphasizes the importance of the teacher's role in society and the significance of the knowledge and morality that they impart to their students.
