English

Klio2033 [76]3 years ago
4 0

The essay by Henry David Thoreau in which he makes more elaborate use of metaphor is "Walden, or, Life in the Woods" (1854).

In this essay, Thoreau uses more elaborate metaphor to convey the ideas of nonindividuality and to show how the human mind is easily influenced as the Earth's soil is marked by the steps of others.

The way in which he describes and metaphorizes nature and human existance in the space of Walden Pond contributes to adapt complex and abstract ideas of humanistic guidance into understandable language.

Mariulka [41]

He doesn't care if he isn't picked to start the game. He usually comes on as a sub in the second half and he often scores a goal in the final minutes. He knows that he can add something extra and when we're lost and there are 10 minutes left to the final whistle, he seems to get that adrenaline rush and just wants the ball to show what he can do. I guess he's our secret weapon- Super-sub Sully!

List of answer:

1. A

2. C

3. A

4. C

5. A

6. C

7. B

8. C

This excerpt tells the story of a substitute player who is always picked to play in matches almost at the end of them. He is considered a secret weapon who is able to give his team the victory they need. As this is a narrative construction written in the present tense, we must always respect the best grammatical choices in order to have a well-written piece.

For this reason, in questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 we must choose the verbs that are conjugated with the third person singular subject ("he", in this case) and in 6 with the first person plural subject ("we", in this case).
