Answer:
The literary technique that is being used in this description from the passage is a simile. So the right option is A.
Explanation:
To make a certain description more vehement or lifelike, a simile is used. It is a figure of speech that compares one thing with another thing of a separate kind to bring in that effect. Here, in the passage, the simile is "Like a rocket, the ball scorched the wind." The speed of the ball (one thing) is compared to that of a rocket which is another thing of a different kind. The effect of the ball hit at a game is described using a simile, followed by where it lands and the audience's reaction.

Answer:
Minor
Second inversion
A
Explanation:
Both intervals of a root position triad are either major third or minor third.
The interval between the bottom note and middle is perfect fourth so it is not root position.
List the notes: E, A, C
Invert the triad to root position by moving the bottom note up an octave (rotate the letters as if they are in a circle) so that they are separated by only major or minor thirds.
A, C, E
The root is the first note of a root position triad. A
Identify what third the two intervals are.
A - C: Minor third
C - E: Major third
A triad with a minor third followed by a major third is a minor triad.
The number of inversions from a root position triad is the position of the original triad.
A, C, E
C, E, A
E, A, C
It took 2 inversions, so the triad is in second inversion.
