Once an old shipping container has returned from sea, it's likely to be rusty, dented, and not very attractive. (1)If these cont

ainers could speak, they would tell stories of grand adventures on the sea. Instead of scrapping these steel boxes, however, companies have begun fixing them up and adding electricity, plumbing, and insulation. The containers can be stacked for student housing, office space, retail space, and many other purposes. (2)One London Travelodge, which is made of more than 80 shipping containers stacked eight high, looks like any other hotel both inside and out. (3)Using shipping containers as the basis of buildings requires that these boxes be available. The economic downturn experienced in many countries including the United States meant that many goods were being shipped from countries such as China. (4)Since few countries were exporting as many goods as they were importing, once the cars, toys, and clothes were emptied from the cargo containers, the steel boxes were set aside. Selling the boxes was more cost-effective than shipping them back empty, so people in need of inexpensive storage buildings bought some containers. In time, people established companies to convert these containers, which can be purchased for about $1,000 in some cases, into livable space. Which sentence in this paragraph does not belong? A) Sentence 1 B) Sentence 2 C) Sentence 3 D) Sentence 4

Which of the following lines uses figurative language?
tia_tia [17]

The line that uses figurative language is the last one: The girl's eyes were deep blue oceans.

<u>Figurative language refers to the use of figures of speech to make a literary text more impactful and to develop a more creative writing</u>. Some forms of figurative language are simile, metaphor and personification<u>. In the case of the line "The girl's eyes were deep blue oceans", there is a metaphor since a thing (the deep blue oceans) is regarded as representative of something else (the girl's eyes)</u>. In that way, the author is describing the girl's eyes by means of a comparison that, at the same time, should not been taken literally.

Part A Which inference can be made about volcanic islands in "The Oldest and Youngest Places on Earth"? Most of the earth's land
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Option: Underwater volcanoes erupt differently from those above water.

Explanation:

A volcano formed when hot molten rock, gases, and ashes escape. The reason they erupt is that due to pressure built inside the crust of the planet. There are several types of volcanoes, which include composite, shield, and dome. When the head of the volcanoes appears above the water, an island is formed. The volcano eruption beneath the ocean surface forms seamount, which is not an island.
