This author uses many figures of speech:

1. Hyperbole means over exaggerating the sentence. From text " Don't get too close or he might bite!"

2. Metaphor means put words that are not related in a sentence. From the text "Ben growled at the man who parked too close to his car."

3. Personification means formal language in a sentence that has a sense of imagery. In text "He was always guarding his prized possession."

Answer:

Hi ines! I don´t know if this will help you! i made my self

Explanation:

                                         “TO BE ON A WAR”

                                                    1914 – 1918

                            We think of war, we think of a conflict.

           Not one, not two, but three allies, against three adversaries.  

                  Also called the triple alliance and the triple entente.

                            Each battle has a winner, as does a loser.

                            And always a leader behind everything.

                           Marne, Galipoli, Verdun, Somme, Cambrai;

                             These battles were important in this war.

All the soldiers felt pain, fear, of not knowing if they were going to survive                                                                              the war;

   With our knees together, we crawled as we could through the mud.

                                  We get to the flashes of lights;

   We turned around and started walking towards that distant rest.

    Russia to the east, France to the west, and Germany had the best.

    Schlieffen counted on German victory , in the West would be quick;  

                      And that Russian mobilisation would be slow.

             The power to convince goes in what the person can see.

                    If it is something imaginary, you will not trust,

                           that is why propaganda was made of.

5. A student has asked Professor Norman how to write a good introduction paragraph. Which of the following details would not sup
ratelena [41]

Answer:

You will also want to make sure you have time to edit your essay.

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • You may want to offer some background information in your introduction.
  • You will also want to make sure you have time to edit your essay.
  • Introductions should contain a thesis statement.
  • Introductions need to have an interesting opening.

What the student needs is information on how to write a good introduction paragraph. Including background information, a thesis statement, and an interesting opening are all good advice on how an introduction should be written. The only advice that does not fit is the second one - that the student should make sure to have enough time to edit their essay. That is not relevant to what a proper introduction paragraph should look like.

Thus, the correct answer is: <em>You will also want to make sure you have time to edit your essay. </em>

Bezzdna [24]
In this excerpt from <span><em>Old Times on the Mississippi </em>by Mark Twain, he tells the story of how he began training as a riverboat pilot. In it, he introduces the character of  the "cub-engineer". Here, Twain uses his characterization (the way he presents the character) to let us know how much he dislikes this dude. There are many ways in which to describe hair grease, but Twain chose "Oil-hair" (not nice to say). That and his "ignorant silver watch and a showy brass watch-chain" give us more details about how the author perceived this person (not very positively, of course).</span>
