The first excerpt is satire because satire is the use of humor, irony, or exaggeration. 

The second excerpt is repetition. The phrase, "Now is the time..." is being repeated.

The third excerpt is rhetorical questions. Throughout the excerpt, there are questions being asked which the readers aren't supposed to be answered. Instead, the questions are there to make a point.

Well just relax everything will be ok. I was nervous as a freshman as well and struggled but your teacher will always be there for you, just keep on studying and when school starts don’t be afraid to raise your hand or ask for help when needed because they won’t know if you’re struggling. Personally in my high school my teachers offered tutoring after school. Don’t stress and break ur head just enjoy ur break and wait until school starts cause i’m pretty sure not everyone is gonna remember anything as well. They take it little by little and it’s pretty easy.

What role do primaries play in the local, state, and federal
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Primary elections or often just primaries, are the process by which voters can indicate their preference for their party's candidate, or a candidate in general, in an upcoming general election, local election, or by-election. Depending on the country and administrative divisions within the country, voters might consist of the general public in what is called an open primary, or solely the members of a political party in what is called a closed primary. In addition to these, there are other variants on primaries (which are discussed below) that are used by many countries holding elections throughout the world.

The origins of primary elections can be traced to the progressive movement in the United States, which aimed to take the power of candidate nomination from party leaders to the people.[1] However, political parties control the method of nomination of candidates for office in the name of the party, and other methods of selecting candidates include caucuses, conventions, and nomination meetings.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

"The man called Evans came swaying along the canoe until he could look over his companion's shoulder."

"The paper had the appearance of a rough map. By much folding it was creased and worn to the pitch of separation, and the second man held the discoloured fragments together where they had parted."

Explanation:

Hello. From the context of your question we can see that it relates to "The Treasure in the Forest" a tale written by HG Wells that presents the story of two men who sail in search of treasure after murdering a Chinese man and stealing the map he owned.

The story follows a plot full of adventures, mysteries and reflections and like every plot presents an element called exposition. The exposition can be found at the beginning of the story where important elements for the development of the entire plot are presented to the reader. In the case of the question above, the two response options selected above are two examples of exposition, where one of the characters and the map are presented, which is a central element in the entire narrative.
