Simile, because no part in the poem does it say anything is “like” or “as”another thing :) hope that helped

Simile

A simile is a comparison between two different things using like or as. The words like or as are not in this excerpt of the poem so this is the only correct answer.

Imagery is the use of descriptive words to create an image. Describing the way the birds sighed and comparing the ways she moved to a bright container. An allusion is a reference to an outside work. In this case the speaker alludes to English poets. A hyperbole is an over exaggeration.

Which of the following is a statement of unbiased fact?
forsale [732]

Answer:

A.the states with the largest hispanic population are located in the southwest

Explanation:

Fact is something that is true, can be objectively checked, verified and proved.

Bias is an inclination in favor or against somone or something, based on personal opinions. It is, basically, supporting or opposing one's side in an argument or decision makings due to some subjective, often untrue, reasons.

Answer B. is an opinion; whenever there is "should" in a sentence, it can't be a fact. However, if this opinion comes from an English-speaking person, it can be considered bias because he supports English becoming official language because he speaks it.

Answer C. is also an opinion. Similarly, to the previous case, it can be considered a bias if the person expressing this opinion supports farmers and construction workers die to some personal reasons, rather than objective ones.

Answer D is also an opinion and again can be regarded as a bias if the person expressing it has some personal involvement with the Latinoamericans.

Only answer A. states a fact that can be checked objectively (in census results in these states, for example)

Which of the following would make a
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

I would say

<em>"B. Exams show students' ability to take tests instead of their knowledge, so we should eliminate exams."</em>

Explanation:

<em>"A. Many students struggle with taking exams in school."</em>  < This is not very elaborate, and is not a valid reason to eliminate testing.

<em>"C. Don't school exams just show how well students can take a test rather than what they really know?"</em>  < This answer is informal, and is formatted as a question rather than a statement.

<em>"D. State tests are often a requirement in order to ensure state and federal funding for education."</em>  < This is a good answer, with formal writing and a statement format, however, it is contradictory to the topic, and suggests that testing in schools should <em>not</em> be eliminated.

<u>Option 'B' tells us why exams are unnecessary using formal writing and a statement format. </u>

Good luck!!
