Question

what does the metaphor in this text suggest? he reads incessantly; new ideas are food for his mind. he is stimulated by new ideas. he often reads about food and cooking. he is never satisfied with what he reads.

Explanation:

The metaphor "new ideas are food for his mind" compares new ideas to food, which nourishes or stimulates the mind as food nourishes the body. The first option "He is stimulated by new ideas" aligns with this, as food (new ideas) would stimulate the mind. The second option is incorrect as the metaphor isn't about actual food - related reading. The third option isn't suggested by the metaphor about new ideas as food.

Answer:

He is stimulated by new ideas.
