Answer:

It means that the message that Paul Revere brought on his horse triggered a battle as impactful as a fire.

Explanation:

The message that Paul Revere brought on his horse and spread throughout the region started the Revolutionary War and spread like wildfire across the 13 American colonies and punctuated, at that moment, the fate of that territory. The message was powerful, impactful and spread easily, for this reason, the author compared this moment with sparks launched into the earth, generating a great fire.

Vinvika [58]

Answer and Explanation:

Cleft sentences are used to connect something previously understood to new information or to emphasize something by placing it in a different clause. When we use this type of structure, we are basically dividing a piece of information into two clauses. It is common to use <em>it</em> or <em>wh-</em> words to form the cleft sentence.

1. I don't like a manager who acts like a tyrant. = What I don't like is a manager who acts like a tyrant.

2. We're looking for someone who is a team player. - What we are looking for is someone who is a team player.

3. He would prefer to walk to the theater. - What he would prefer is to walk to the theater.

4. She wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. - It was she who wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. / What she wrote was the most popular mystery novel of the year.

5. We saw the most dangerous snake in the world. - What we saw was the most dangerous snake in the world. / It was the most dangerous snake in the world that we saw.

6. She had a terrible case of the flu. - What she had was a terrible case of the flu.

Study this still image from the National Geographic video "How Flu Viruses
Alona [7]

Answer: A. The fact that the sick person is a child helps underscore the point  that anyone can spread the flu.

Explanation:

People are generally more likely to take notice of something if it affects children because that means it can affect anyone including those same children and there is a general consensus that children must be protected until they hit adulthood.

In using this poster, National Geographic wanted to invoke more feelings of fear, care and empathy in the subject because people watching would try to find out how to prevent the disease to reduce the number of children and by extension, adults getting it.
