Answer:

(D) ...they will have to learn how to deal with this weird environment.

(A) The supporting details serve to expand upon the main idea, fully describing what life is like in a weightless environment.

Explanation:

The main idea of the selection is that even in a one-year trip, which is the shortest amount of time required to get to Mars, they will have to learn how to cope with the lack of gravity because its effects on the body are harsh.

The selected summary statement is the only one that correctly describes the selection as providing supporting details about how unpleasant weightlessness can be to support the idea of astronauts having to learn how to deal with it.

What does symbolism mean in ELA?
Gnom [1K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Symbolism is when something represents a bigger idea. Symbolism is when symbols represent themes.

Figurative Language

Symbolism is a form of figurative language. Figurative language is used mainly by literature to express a complex idea by using figurative meanings. When an author uses symbolism they do not intend for their words to be taken literally.

Other forms of figurative language include

  • Idioms
  • Metaphors
  • Similes
  • Hyperboles

In all of these examples, including symbolism, an author uses nonliteral definitions to convey more complex thought processes that can be connected to the real world. Figurative language, especially symbolism, can help an author establish a theme and universal connection.

Definition of Symbolism

Symbolism is used to connect objects and people in stories to real-life ideas. There are famous examples of symbolism that can be seen in multiple different stories. For example, swans are usually seen as a symbol of peace, and roses are symbols of love. In these examples, authors have used the nonliteral definitions of swans and roses to connect the objects to ideas that affect everyone's life.

Famous Uses of Symbolism

<u>How to Kill a Mockingbird</u> is a famous book that is filled with symbolism. One of the main symbols in the book is the Mockingbird. The Mockingbird represents innocence.

"Romeo and Juliet" also uses symbolism. In the play, Queen Mab represents the dreams and desires of the characters in the story.

Which sentence contains a misplaced modifier? The dog catcher said he would return our dog on Saturday. My uncle served steaks o
Alinara [238K]
Let us first define the meaning of misplaced modifier; it is a word, clause, or phrase that is improperly placed in a sentence which make it refer or modify an unintended word. 
The first, second, and third sentences that are given above sound correct because their modifiers are placed just right.  Only the fourth sentence sounded awkwardly and confusing, because the clause "who lives in New York" is improperly separated from the subject "My aunt", which must be described in the first place, and not the "holidays". 

The sentence will sound and can be understood better if it is written this way,

"My aunt, who lives in New York, is coming home for the holidays."
