Answer:

Hyperbole

Explanation:

A statement made in an exaggerated form but one that cannot be taken seriously or literarily considered as being impossible to happen.

For example:  

Its rainy cats and dogs;

He ran as fast as the wind;

I am so hungry that I could eat a horse;

These statements above, are an exaggeration of what is really happening because for example, no matter how hungry one might be one cannot eat up a whole horse.

Read the sentence. Mercury and Venus _____ relatively close to the sun, and neither Mercury nor Venus _____ to support life.
aivan3 [116]

The pair of verb forms which correctly completes the sentence is the following one:

A. are; appears.

The complete sentence would look like this:

"Mercury and Venus are relatively close to the sun, and neither Mercury nor Venus appears to support life."

In the first clause, the subject is formed by "Mercury and Venus", which means it is plural, and therefore it requires a plural verb (<em>Mercury and Venus</em> are= <em>They</em> are).

In the second clause, there is a neither...nor construction, and both elements which form the subject (again, <em>Mercury and Venus</em>, but this time used in the construction <u>neither</u><u><em> Mercury </em></u><u>nor</u><u><em> Venus</em></u>) are singular nouns, which means a singular verb must be used: neither Mercury nor Venus <em>appears</em>.
