Answer:

B. metaphor, alliteration, and repetition

Explanation:

In this passage, these are the devices employed by the author. The author uses metaphor when he compares his experience in nature to a "show." He also employs alliteration when he uses the words "thought" and "brought." Finally, the author uses repetition by using the word "gazed" twice. All of these contribute to creating a more vivid image on the reader.

Review the last paragraph of chapter IX (lines 83-109). What is the central idea that Bradford communicates in this paragraph?

In-s [12.5K]

The central idea of the paragraph is the Pilgrims' spiritual legacy. They encountered many hardships and misfortunes on their way to the New World. They were beaten by harsh weather, fought by wild beasts and the Native Americans. All of those temptations were cast on them by God. They risked everything and, with His help, succeeded in founding what they saw as the new Zion. The point of the paragraph is, therefore, the celebration of their great venture, which was to change the world forever.

Can someone write me a descriptive paragraph of being in a forest please:)) (30 points)

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer: There I was sitting high above the ground, amongst the lengthy twisted surface of the branches. The surface was coarse and bristly though I couldn't help but run my fingertips over the exterior. The Wind carried a scent of fall leaves, sap and grass. This was my favorite place to sit and think. So much happening all at once but also nothing, you could close your eyes and have everything blank, but also close your eyes and have all your senses go haywire. The sound of a squirrel sprinting up a neighboring tree, the wind forcing itself amongst the leaves knocking them down or causing them to quiver. You could feel the breeze and smell the bark; though it was dirty it smelled clean and refreshing. If you open up your eyes there so much to see and observe, especially when so high up. Distinguishing the branches, how they intertwine and connect, how the clouds drifting above the world would cast shadows amid the ground. You can spot birds soaring through the sky or resting anywhere they please. It's a peaceful place but also chaotic, the ants scurrying around but you resting. Tranquil yet tumultuous, every living thing in its own world doing its own thing.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

A: Hi, Jo. This is David. Do you want to meet for lunch today?

A: Wow! And what time (35) is The audition?

B: It (36) starts At twelve o'clock, but I don't know exactly when it (37) finishes

A: Well, (38) are you doing anything tonight?

B: I (39) am meeting Some friends tonight, actually. What about tomorrow?

A: I (40) am flying To Munich tomorrow. Don't you remember?

B: Of course. What time (41) does Your flight leave?

A: At two. But I (42)am not doing Anything in the morning. You could help me pack my bags!

Explanation:

We use the present simple to talk about habits, facts and arranged timetables like the train or flight schedules.

To write affirmative sentences in present simple:

He/she/it + verb +s

For example, He eats lunch at noon every day.

We/you/they/you +verb

For example, We eat lunch at noon every day.

Note that the verb is without the s.

To write negative sentences in present simple:

He/she/it + does not / doesn't + verb

For example, He doesn't like broccoli.

We/you/they/you + do not / don't +verb

For example, We don't like broccoli.

To write questions in present simple:

Does + he/she/it + verb ?

For example, Does he like chocolate?

Do + we/you/they/you + verb?

For example, do you like chocolate?

36, 37, and 41 use the present simple to talk about timetables and schedules regarding the audition and flights.

We use the present continuous to talk about ongoing actions at the moment or arranged plans for the future.

To write affirmative sentences in present continuous:

He/she/it + is +verb +ing

For example, He is cooking dinner at the moment.

We/you/they/you + are + verb +ing

For example, We are leaving tomorrow.

To write negative sentences in present continuous:

He/she/it + is not / isn't +verb +ing

For example, he isn't cooking dinner at the moment.

We/you/they/you + are not/ aren't + verb +ing

For example, We aren't leaving tomorrow.

To write questions in present continuous:

Is + he/she/it +verb +ing?

For example, Is he cooking dinner at the moment?

Are + we/you/they/you + verb +ing?

For example, are you leaving tomorrow?

34, 35, 38, 39, 40, and 42 use the present continuous to talk about plans for the future. The main difference with the present simple in this aspect is that even though we can use both tenses to talk about the future, the present simple is for timetables and the present continuous, for plans or arranged dates that we or others make.
