Answer: D) figurative language.

Explanation: figurative language is the use of words or expressions to convey a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. It can be expressed through metaphors, similes, personifications, allusions, etc. In the given passage, James Baldwin is most clearly using figurative language as a rhetorical device, because the way he describes the consequences of slapping a child in anger, is not meant to be taken literally.

Answer:he error is "We  also had a 20 metre pool."

When writing we need to make sure that be consistent in the use of tense. In the given extract all the information is in present (we have, we run, etc) except for the phrase "We  also had a 20 metre pool" which is in past, it should be "We  also have a 20 metre pool."

algol [13]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is Germanic tribes.</u>

Explanation:

1. The history of <u>ancient or Old English</u> can be described from the arrival of three Germanic tribes to the British Isles in the years 500 BC. The Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes crossed the North Sea from what we know today as Denmark and northern Germany. The Anglos received that name due to their land of origin Engle or Angels. They called their own language Englisc, a word that derived in English.

2. By the tenth century, the dialect of the West Saxons became the official language of Great Britain. There are samples of <u>Old English</u> that date from this period and are mostly written using the Runic alphabet, which had its origin in the Scandinavian languages.

3. The Latin alphabet was brought by Christian missionaries from Ireland and is still the English writing system.
