​

Answer 1

Giant Ping pong ball is a metaphorical example given to the ice covered area.

Explanation:

• The author Tishani Doshi explains that walking on the plains of Antarctica was like walking into a giant ping pong ball, by which she means all she could see was the ice over everywhere with pits, which resembled a ping pong ball.
• Comparing ice covered areas to a ping pong ball is a metaphor.
• Metaphor means a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
• Along with this, the author also explains that, being an Indian, who used to worship sun every morning, walking on the snow covered area on Antarctica felt really strange and she also says that "You lose all earthly sense of perspective and time here."
