Answer:

Pun

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure that is a pun since a simile is comparing 2 things with like or as and a metaphor compares 2 things using is. A pun is supposed to be a joke featuring the word's different meanings.

Ierofanga [76]
"everything was suddenly out of tune like a broken accordion" is a good example of figurative language. It shows the knowledge of the narrator, who must have seen or heard this broken accordion at some point in his life. They seem in shock by the fact that his family is crumbling, hence their use of the word "suddenly." It also shows quite the dramatic persona and exaggeration by saying that 'everything' was suddenly out of tune.

Can you help me Elements of effective communication are skills contained in active listening, including which of the following?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:c) using verbal brief affirmations..

D) asking closed questions..

E) seeking clarification..

G) use of body language

Explanation: Being a good listener begins with active listening, meaning you take time to pay close attention to what the person is saying and you ask clarifying questions for better understanding.

Your use of body language such as hand gestures, eye contact and the tone of your voice all put colour to what you are saying and make it easier for the listener to understand you.

Asking closed questions will give you an idea of if your listener actually understands what you are trying to communicate with them. This will also give them more interest to what you are communicating about.

Seeking clarification of whether the one you communicating with understands is essential because you get to see where the listener lacks understanding and you are then able to further explain.

Good communication means saying just enough, not too much or too little. Try to convey your message with a few words as possible. Say what you want clearly and directly.
