appositive phrase

An appositive phrase renames or describes a noun. It is extra information included to help clarify the reader something about the noun. In this sentence "an electrical engineer" helps the reader understand why the speaker's father is able to help her better understand the material in her science textbook. An appositive phrase is usually set apart from the rest of the sentence by commas and can be eliminated from the sentence without changing any meaning.

Answer:

I believe it means, you can either join someone and work with them and "get down with them" so do things with them, or get beaten by them and be "crushed" by them. Similar to the saying if you can't beat them, join them. Just a bit different meaning pick to join them or get beaten by them.

Complete the sentence.Alex and Joe have _____ views of life. To Alex “life is a bowl of cherries,” but to Joe “it’s the pits.”
Alborosie

The correct answer is that Alex and Joe have C. Contrary views of life.

This is because contrary means opposing, or opposite. Using the metaphor of the cherry, Alex believes that life is a bowl of cherries, meaning that he looks at life in a positive way. To Joe, life is "the pits", which means he is looking at life with a negative view. This shows the opposing, or contrary nature, of their beliefs, which shows you that the answer is C.

Hope this helps!
