Answer:

D.

Explanation:

In the piece, what we see is an exaggeration of a certain feeling that is being transmitted. This exaggeration is called hyperbole and in this case it affects the tone and its drama, making it an over-dramatic tone.

Hope it helped,

Answer:

7. Source #1: Biofuel from Sunflowers

8. Source #2: Shrinking Violets They Aren't

9. Both

10. Source #2: Shrinking Violets They Aren't

11. The TWO details from the different sources that support the claim that cultivating sunflowers provides benefits beyond pretty-looking flowers are:

✔️“Among the crops identified as potential sources of bioethanol are: sugarcane, sweet sorghum, coconut, corn, cassava, and jathropa. And now, sunflower is also coming into the picture as another potential biosource for ethanol.”

✔️“… growers are experimenting with sunflowers in a soil-treatment practice called phytoremediation. In field tests last summer, the plant's deep taproots seemed to pull heavy metal contaminants like mercury and lead from the garden's polluted soil."

Explanation:

"Agriculture is the new resource for biofuels" is actually seen in Source #1 of the excerpt: Biofuel from Sunflowers. It's clearly seen that Sunflower has the potentials to be used as a biofuel. And not just that, some other agricultural crops like cassava, corn, sorghum, sugarcane, etc are good now used for biofuels.

"Sunflowers can be used as food sources" is supported by Source #2. Below is an excerpt from Source #2 that supports that:

On other occasions, the seeds "were roasted over a fire, then pounded and cooked with roasted white corn, sweetened with maple sugar and used in somewhat the same way we use lard."

Also, we see that the both sources reveal that sunflowers have demonstrated tremendous usefulness to humanity throughout the centuries and new uses are being explored.

We can as well see that Source #2 supports that "Sunflowers can help restore healthy soil". Here is an excerpt:

At the South Bronx community garden La Finca del Sur, she said, growers are experimenting with sunflowers in a soil-treatment practice called phytoremediation. In field tests last summer, the plant's deep taproots seemed to pull heavy metal contaminants like mercury and lead from the garden's polluted soil.

Read the excerpt from Wonder by R. J. Palacio.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

This is the full question:

Read the excerpt from Wonder by R. J. Palacio.

She can get really annoyed when people do something rude. Like, for instance, one time in the playground some older kids made some noises. I don't even know what the noises were exactly because I didn't hear them myself, but Via heard and she just started yelling at the kids.

Based on the excerpt, which inference can be made?

A. August is usually relaxed.

B. August and Via have a close relationship.

C. The older kids are teasing Via.

D. Via is older than August.

The answer is C because based on the available information, Via got angry when the kids said something.

From her reaction, the kids must have said something to upset her or most likely, teased her.

As for the other options, there's simply not enough information available from this passage that points to Augusta or her age or relationship with Via.

Aleksandr [31]
Based on the excerpt from Leo Tolstoy's "How Much Land Does a Man Need?", the author uses <span>the character of the Devil as an antagonist. This is because the Devil, after hearing the conversation between the woman and her husband, decided to give the man enough land to corrupt him and make him follow his evil ways. </span>
