A. is the idiom because it has a word that is out of place and still describes the sentence

Choice A. is an example of an idiom. Notice that it uses the words "his mood came out of left field." It's not to be taken literally. Idioms are expressions whose meaning is not predictable from the usual meanings.

Examples are:

"It's raining cats and dogs!"
- It's not literally raining cats and dogs like animals are falling from the sky. It means that the rain is heavy and it may refer to storm with winds.

"It costs me an arm and a leg."
- It doesn't really mean that you have to give up your body parts. It may refer to something so hard to get that you have to work really hard for it, causing your body to get tired and maybe it costs a lot that you need to give your body parts for it.

I hope you get it! :)

To show difference; point out how things are different is to: a describe b summarize c compare d contrast
padilas [110]

Answer:

The answer is contrast (Option D)

Explanation:

Contrast is the act of comparing two things or two people in order to show or determine the differences between them. In other words, contrast is the difference between two things or two people when they are compared.

"Contrast" is very different from "compare." As such, both words should not be used interchangeably because compare simply means to show or determine similarity while contrast serves the purpose of obtaining difference.

In simple words, the most needed thing in slum areas for education is the infrastructure. Majority of the students in slums go to school which have no proper buildings and facilities and no proper education is provided by the teachers.
