Answer:

The correct answers are b)  and d) because only in these two options can you see the same sound present in several words, and that is the definition of alliteration. For instance:

b) And start their silent swinging, one by one.

d) Black reapers with the sound of steel on stones.

As it happens with the presence of the "s" sound in these words, the objective of alliteration is to highlight the words that possess the repetitive sound to enhance their meaning.

Help me to find simple present tense, technical terms, action verbs, passive voice, and technical language on this text? please
Nikitich [7]

Answer: simple present: is, have, are, occurs, has, exceeds

Technical terms: refractive index, natural phenomena, internal reflection, boundary surface, angle of incidence, internal influence, medium

Action verbs: travel, occurs, trapped, refract, reflect

Passive voice: is seen,

Explanation: There are some corrections needed: 1) ANGLE. An angle is the intersection of two lines. An ANGEL is a spiritual messenger from God.

2)Correct this question by saying either

Do you know how a mirage happens?

OR

Do you know how mirages happen?

(A Singular Subject usually requires an article, the or a, and the present tense verb must end with -s when the subject is s singular.)

3) The last sentence is incorrect. It should be changed from

When this light is seen by our eyes, the we will see it as if there are shadows of types of water which are called mirage.

To:

When this light is seen by our eyes, it is interpreted by the brain as a reflection in a pool of water. The appearance of a pool where there is no water is called a mirage.

Technical language can be very challenging. Some concepts do not have easy transition from one language to another. I hope this helps.
