Rewrite the following conversation between a teenage boy and his mother so that it sounds natural to you. Make sure that you beg

in a new paragraph each time the speaker changes.
"I absolutely, positively do not want to go to that commencement ceremony, Mother. Brenda's graduation is of no significance to me. Why, he'll talk on and on about what a great class this is and what hopes he has for their future. It's a drag, Mother," Tommy said. "You must go, Tommy, dear," Mother returned. "Brenda will be all torn up if you don't."

Answer:

I don't really want to go to that graduation ceremony, Mom. I don't care about Brenda's graduation at all. He won't stop repeating what a great class they were and that they have a great future to go. It's annoying, Mom. - Tommy said-

You've got to go, Tommy. - Mom said - Brenda will be sad if you don't go.

Explanation:

The original conversation shows the use of more formal vocabulary and structure, in the provided answer some of the words and expressions were changed by more popular ones without going to the full opposite by presenting a totally informal conversation all covered with slang words.

Popular words are considered "natural" in spoken English.

It burns with topaz light. Identify the figure of speech
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

Alliteration has same starting consonants. Ex. "Shelly sold seashells down by the seashore." Notice the majority of the word start with S.

Personification is humanizing something. Ex.  "Lightning danced across the sky." Humans dance and here we are comparing the movement of lightning to the movement of dancing people.

Metaphors are comparisons of two things, non living.

"She has a heart of gold", its just a figure of speech because people cannot have hearts of gold, just like the the "it" cannot actually burn with topaz light because topaz does not actually have a light.

Anvisha [2.4K]
The main idea doesn't explain in detail why it is the main idea. It doesn't prove that it is the main idea, it only states so.
