Which sentence uses an adjective to enrich its meaning?

English
2 answers:
saw5 [17]3 years ago

Correct answer:

The sentence which uses an adjective to enrich its meaning is:

The wrinkly elephant lumbered to its water trough.

The adjective used is wrinkly, and it enriches the meaning of the sentence because it gives us more information about the elephant, inviting our imagination to draw this special, perhaps older elephant in our minds.

Wrinkly as an adjective means "very wrinkled" or with a lot of wrinkles; so this word is definitely qualifying the elephant.

We know that elephants usually walk clumsily (lumber), and that they all have wrinkled skins, still, the use of an adjective enhances the idea. If we compare the chosen answer among the other three examples, we can definitely note that there is a great difference between "The elephant", and "The wrinkly elephant".

Fudgin [204]

New arrivals at one retirement community were told by its director: ""you are like pilgrims crossing the ocean to take up a new life."" this simile implicitly supports the author’s assumption that those moving to retirement communities feel uncertainty on the wisdom of departing from the past.

Satisfaction at gaining parental independence. Relief at getting out of challenging circumstances. Optimism about being around people who share your objectives.

The terms "like" or "as" are used to compare two dissimilar objects in a simile, which is a sort of metaphor. A simile is used to assist describe one thing by comparing it to another that may seem unrelated at first.

Answer:

A major difference between these men is the rational "from the ground on up" ethic of Franklin and the "one big plan" of the fictional Crane." In Irving's Rip Van Winkle, we find a much more giving character that is much less interested in the highlights of society than our other two characters
