Answer:

Simile

Explanation:

In these lines, the author is employing a simile in order to provide a vivid image to the reader. The author tells us that his memories are "like a fresh watercolor painting left out in the rain." A simile is a comparison between two items that uses the words "like" or "as." This is one of the most common literary devices in English.

5. They <u>don't watch</u> (not/watch) tv on Mondays.

7. She <u>is not finishing</u> (not/finish) the test at present.

8.<u> Was she </u>(she/be) angry yesterday?

9. <u>Are we cooking</u> (we/cook) dinner now?

10. You <u>don't do</u> (not/do) homework every day.

11. She <u>wasn't</u> (not/be) at school yesterday.

12. She<u> is </u>(be) Polish.

13. A cat <u>drinks</u> (drink) milk every day.

14. He <u>likes</u> (like) drinking orange juice.

15. We <u>weren't </u>(not/be) at school 2 days ago.

Explanation:

Note that we usually decide which verb form to use according to time expressions given in the sentence.

For instance, time expressions such as <em>every summer holiday, on Monday, every Friday, every day</em> indicate that we are talking about a repeated action/habit and that the tense we need to use in these sentences is present simple tense. On the other hand, if we have time expressions such as <em>now, at present, at the moment</em>, we need to use present continuous tense. Expressions such as<em> yesterday, two days ago, 2 weeks ago </em>require past simple tense, etc.

In a compound sentence, the comma is placed _[blank]_ the independent clause and _[blank]_ the coordinating conjunction.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Your answer would be D.

Explanation:

A compound sentence joins two or more independent clauses with a coordinator such as and, for, but, or a semi-colon. Independent clauses are made up of two phrases that can stand alone as a complete thought. They are not dependent upon one another, but they put together similar ideas. What is more, they contain three things: a subject, an action, and a complete thought (take 1).

1) I like reading, and I'm buying a new book on Friday

In the sentence above, you can see that the comma is placed after the independent clause (I like reading) and before the coordinating conjunction (and).
