Answer:
We <u>had</u> a lot of fun at the soccer game last night.
Explanation:
Since the soccer game was last night, the sentence is past tense, so we choose the answer that is in past tense, which is "had".
It was finally D-day. We were super excited to be visiting the 'R-Zoo' as it was called ('R' for Radioactive). The zoo was the only one of its kind, with its main attraction being its extremely fierce radioactive alligator. That is precisely where we were headed first. As soon as we entered the somewhat dimly lit cavern, we could hear a roar from the crowd, with a preceding crackling sound, something that resembled a burst of lightning and the sharp wham of something very heavy falling onto the ground. It was a huge banyan tree that was lying horizontally at the edge of the water. At first, we didn't notice anything much except the brown wooden log and the glistening water. It was only when the log started moving that we could make out <em>what</em> was moving it - a huge, menacing, scaly creature with jaws powerful enough to hurl the heavy tree out of the water, laser-like eyes glinting with anger at probably being disturbed out of its reverie, and a body that seemed to be emitting sparks at regular intervals, igniting the dry leaves that came in its way.
Exercising self-control does make us more likely to achieve our goals due to the reason that self-control helps with decision making and how to make the smartest decisions. Not only that but it also helps with restraining from doing things you know you’re not supposed to do. So to achieve your goal you need self-control to make sure you don’t get off that path of maintaining your goal.
Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
To write a metaphor is to compare something without using "like" or "as" (using "like" or "as" would be a simile).
In this sentence, the speaker is comparing John to a snake.
