The figurative language used on the sentence is a simile. A simile is a figure of speech in which<u> two things that have no similarities are compared </u>in order to create a more interesting description. In the sentence action is compared to a broken accordion in which the similitude will be that both are wrong, the action is not going to plan and a broken accordion does not sound as it is supposed to. The key word to understand a simile is the use of the word <em>like</em>, and any other synonyms.

Clustering is an important prewriting technique much like brainstorming and allows the writer to: (D) generate ideas and see connections between them. The trick is to write down whatever words related to a specific word or phrase comes to a writer's head. It is then key to draw associations between words to determine topic of an essay.

"Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet has many themes, including the powerful nature of both love and fate. Choose one or more SECONDA
tigry1 [53]
You could write about all of them because they all help to further the story. I might choose tybalt because he is the main guy who has a problem with romeo. You will need topics for each paragraph and strong beginning section and thesis and a nice closing paragraph. Stay away from using to much of the obvious things and throwing in a few quotes won't hurt. And DON'T FORGET to cite it! That is very important, unless your teacher doesn't make you do that but in high school they typically tend to. If you have any more questions about Romeo and Juliet I will be here to help, I read this during freshman year in high school.

Which of the following could be used to build suspense in a story?
Mama L [17]

The correct answer is: Short phrases that make the reader interested.

Some authors recommend  the use of short sentences as the genre requires variety and flow to avoid repetition and boredom. In this way the pace of the reading is increased keeping the reader's attention. I read an example that was very helpful, imagine someone that is anxious or scared, when he sepaks he uses few words at a time, forming complex sentences turns difficult. By writing with short sentences you can be able to transmit this kind of emotions in a more effective way. Remember that suspense's objective is to make the reader wonder at all time if the protagonist will overcome  the problems presented, the reader must frecuently face uncertainty.
