Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved. Pauline Newman recalled the feelings of the workers: "I can see the young people, m

ostly women, walking down and not caring what might happen. The spirit, I think the spirit of a conqueror, led them on. They didn't know what was in store for them, didn't really think of the hunger, cold, loneliness, and what could happen to them. They didn't care on that particular day; that was their day."

Both commas and parentheses are used to set off parenthetic expressions. <br><br><br> TrueFalse
Free_Kalibri [48]
The correct answer is TRUE. Both commas and parentheses are used to set off parenthetic expressions, but each has their own set of rules to follow when setting off some words in the sentence. Like for example, one way to use parentheses is to set off a phrase that is not part of the subject. On the other hand, we use commas to set off a phrase that serves as an additional information to the sentence.

Can someone write me a poem about cross country or somthing it has to have three types of figurative languge
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Quick Poem ~

Whose dog is that? I think I know.

Its owner is quite happy though.

Full of joy like a vivid rainbow,

I watch her laugh. I cry hello.

She gives her dog a shake,

And laughs until her belly aches.

The only other sound's the break,

Of distant waves and birds awake.

The dog is breathtaking, extraordinary and deep,

But she has promises to keep,

After cake and lots of sleep.

Sweet dreams come to her cheap.

She rises from her gentle bed,

With thoughts of kittens in her head,

She eats her jam with lots of bread.

Ready for the day ahead.

Explanation: I used a site called Poem Generator to create the poem above.
