Now, this may be incorrect, but I'm going to give you two options from an Author's prospective.
I would take away colorful. Because everyone know's fireworks tend to be full of color and excitement, it just seems a little bit too much extra to me.
my second option would be to take away sky. Fireworks are known to be shown in the sky, and night seems like a detail you don't want to remove for the way it sounds.
I hope this helps you!
Simplicity is an example of an abstract noun. It is because
an abstract noun is a word to describe something that a person can’t use any
sensory functions in which simplicity is a way of having to describe someone
without having to use any functions.
it created heroic stories for authors to write about. thus people became famous for little things that they did in the War
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Blessed are the children who always eat the same flavor of ice cream or always know beforehand what kind they will want. Such good children should be quarantined from those who want to "wait and see what flavors there are."
What is the author's purpose for including this portion of "How to Eat an Ice-
Cream Cone"?
A. To inquire about the audience's favorite ice cream flavor
B. To entertain the audience through his use of humor
C. To inform the audience about the value of ice cream
D. To persuade the audience to think about flavors in advance
Answer:
The author's purpose is:
B. To entertain the audience through his use of humor
Explanation:
The passage we are analyzing here is clearly not a serious one. It is supposed to be funny and witty, especially because choosing an ice cream flavor is not a grave matter at all. Not only does the author make a big deal out of it, he goes to the extreme of saying children who know what flavor they want should be quarantined from those who do not. It's as if not knowing the flavor is a contagious disease! Clearly, the author is just making fun of how annoying it may be to wait for a child to decide what flavor he wants.
