I cant find the poem "snake on the Etowah" by David Bottoms. Can someone post it here?

Good effort! However, you have misunderstood the question. The question asks in which sentences the word "snake" is used as an adjective, not as a noun.

In the given sentences, the word "snake" is not used as an adjective in any of them. It is used as a noun in all the sentences.

Let's break down the sentences:

1. "The spy had to snake his way furtively onto the train." - In this sentence, "snake" is used as a verb, describing the action of the spy moving in a sinuous or winding manner.

2. "The cobra is a venomous snake." - Here, "snake" is used as a noun, identifying the type of animal (cobra) being discussed.

3. "The plumber used his snake to open up the clogged pipe." - Once again, "snake" is used as a noun, referring to a tool or device used by the plumber to unclog the pipe.

4. "You are a snake when you stay away from me." - In this sentence, "snake" is being used metaphorically, comparing someone's behavior to that of a snake. Here, it is used as a noun, denoting a person with deceptive or untrustworthy qualities.

In summary, none of the sentences use "snake" as an adjective.
