“Payah kun,” said the Eldest Magician, meaning, “That is quite right”; and he breathed upon the great rocks and lumps of earth t
Tasya [4]

Answer:

<em>he breathed upon the great rocks and lumps of earth </em>

<em>the Moon rose big and full over the water</em>

Explanation:

Imagery is a method, or should we say a literary device, that uses figurative language filled with descriptions in order to help us create mental images of the text. It helps us, not just to read the text, but to experience it with all our senses. Imagery vividly describes how something looks like, sounds like, feels like, tastes like or smells like (uses our senses to describe something).

So, knowing this, best fitting answers would be:

- he breathed upon the great rocks and lumps of earth

- the Moon rose big and full over the water

Drivers ED:When you back your vehicle, you should
shepuryov [24]

<u>Answer</u>:

When you back your vehicle, you should C: Back slowly; your vehicle is much harder to steer while you are backing.

<u>Explanation</u>:

One must be very careful while driving and follow all the rules. Special instructions must be followed while backing the car. It is more difficult to control the steering of the vehicle and balancing the car while backing it. Reverse is a more powerful gear than the driving gears.

So, option C is correct which says that “Back slowly; your vehicle is much harder to steer while you are backing”. Option A is incorrect as it mentions that back quickly. Option B is also wrong as it says that back at the same speed as we move forward.
