Read the passage carefully and paraphrases the underlined words/phrases.
I like the poem for the very reason that anyone else would like it for its humour. I also like the poem because the poet balances the exaggeration
with seemingly convincing logic.
underline words:-1.exaggeration
2.convincing​

Answers

Answer 1

A good way to paraphrase the underlined words is to use excess rather than exaggeration and persuasive rather than convincing

Paraphrase means to express one idea using different words. This means you do not change the meaning of a message but use different words to express it.

When paraphrasing try to:

Look for words with the same meaning but that are clearer or easier to understandPreserve the meaning of the original idea

In this context, the best way to paraphrase the underlined words (exaggeration and convincing) is to use synonyms:

Exaggeration =  excessConvincing =  persuasive

Thus, you can say "I also like the poem because the poet balances the excess with seemingly persuasive logic"

What is the mistake in this sentence? “Henry’s vacation was filled with runnning, biking, and swimming.”

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The only mistake I see is the running only has 2 ns not three.

The comma after biking used to be optional, so it is not really an error, but I would check the grammar book you are using. Rules change.

It used to be incorrect to put a word between the verb and to. Now one word is permitted, which my teacher would have given me a week's detention for doing.

So not to go would have been considered correct

to not go was considered wrong, but now it isn't. Things change.

Thanking you,

Yours Sincerely,

A man was sitting with his feet up on a desk. He turned his head when Stanley and the guard entered, but otherwise didn't move. Even though he was inside, he wore sunglasses and a cowboy hat. He also held a can of soda, and the sight of it made Stanley even more aware of his own thirst.

. . .

There must have been a small refrigerator behind his desk, because the man in the cowboy hat produced two more cans of soda. For a second Stanley hoped that one might be for him, but the man gave one to the guard and said the other was for the driver.

Which sentence should be moved to the beginning of the draft to introduce the topic?

A. sentence 6
B. sentence 8
C. sentence 12
D. sentence 3

Answers

Answer:

D. sentence 3

Explanation:

The topic sentence of the paragraph should introduce the topic of the text in an interesting way known as the hook. The current first sentence does not introduce anything, it just jumps into the topic and is confusing. However, sentence 3 introduces the fact that a different type of moose exists in a region of the world. This explains what the paragraph will be about and makes more sense. Therefore, it is the best topic sentence presented.

D. Sentence 3

Juliet wants the bird to be the nightingale instead of the lark because the nightingale only sings at night, while the lark sings in the morning. If it's the nightingale they heard, that means Romeo can stay with her a bit longer, but if it's the lark, then Romeo has to leave.

The correct answer is A. I always get good grades.

Explanation

The word "Although" is used to introduce contrasting ideas or sentences. In this context, a sentence with the opposite meaning should be added. Therefore, if the first sentence is about a negative practice such as "Although I don't study very much..", the most appropriate for the second sentence would be a sentence in which a positive practice or consequence stands out "I always get good grades." So, the correct answer is A.

What figure of speech is used in "White smoke crept over a green field."

Alliteration
Idiom
Simile
Personification

Answers

Answer:

Personification

Explanation:

Alliteration means the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

Idiom means a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words.

Simile means a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid.

Personification means the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

So the answer is personification because "White smoke crept over a green field." is the attribution of a personal nature characteristics.
