b. Always ask yourself this question: “ Am I pleased with the results?”
A colon should be used when there is a complete sentence before it. In option B, "Always ask yourself this question" is a complete sentence.
Option A is incorrect because after "yourself" your brain automatically wants to say "is ...". Option B is incorrect because the quotation is embedded within the sentence so there should not be any punctuation after "is". Option D is also incorrect. There should not be any punctuation after the word "like" either.
Answer:
I and III
Explanation:
Figurative language is a literary device that allows the author to express a message with non-literal and subjunctive meaning, through words and phrases that do not express their real meaning, but that require the reader's reasoning to interpret and understand them. This type of device is used to give more expression to a word or phrase and makes it more poetic and expressive. As an example we can use the phrases:
I. “The fog comes/on little cat feet.”
III. “on silent haunches/and then moves on.”
Answer:
It was a beautiful autumn day. The trees whispered in a crisp, cool breeze, their gold and red leaves on display. The river babbled nonstop, gushing by at a somewhat alarming rate. The still scent of early snow hung threateningly in the air. In the midst of it all, one of the smallest mammals found herself panicking in a rush to find food before a heavy layer of snow blanketed the ground tonight. The fluffy-tailed, brown-coated squirrel frantically clawed up clumps of dirt, rooting through the thick undergrowth. She had searched nearly half the area around her home, when suddenly...a snowflake landed on her nose. She cried out in dismay, sobbing as she desperately tore up the ground. Seconds passed. Minutes. Hours. The moon had awoken from its deep slumber, winking at the world as clouds passed over it. Her paws had grown numb and she could barely see past her own nose, the snow falling quicker and quicker around her. It showed the promise of a blizzard. A starving wolf howled in the distance, wondering where all the deer went. The squirrel paid him no mind, attempting to retrace her tracks back to her home. She didn't hear the pounding paws rushing toward her, muffled by the flurrying snow. She didn't notice the shadow suddenly blanketing her. She didn't notice the icy breath freezing in the air around her.
And it was too late.

Explanation:
Labour Day is a day dedicated for those hard workers who are unskilled workers. The special assembly was conducted at my school and there were students dressed as different labours paying them tribute for their hard work, some students including me presented speech and presentation showing their hard work and highlighting their importance in the society. My presentation started with the story of a person who works at a construction site I took his interview a few days back and after taking his consent added it in the presentation. After his interview I added that sometimes they have to work for more shifts if a project is to be completed early, and after a complete day of hard work when they reach home they are refreshed by the dearness of the family. The event was very informative and I really enjoyed it.
