Answer:

metaphor

Explanation:

From the opening line of "Overhead Over S.E Asia" which says<u><em> "White phosphorus, white phosphorus, mechanical snow, where are you falling?" </em></u> we can see that the snow is described as white phosphorous and mechanical snow then in the successive line, it is plainly called snow and asked when it is falling.

Which word creates the transition between the stated problem and its emerging solution?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The answer is: but.

Explanation:

“But” is the appropriate conjunction word that can be used to connect two sentences or groups of words, whereby the first sentence contains the problem, and the second sentence contains the solution. For example, in the statement, “The flood used to devastate the land, but the dam has stopped the flood”, the word "but" was used to join the first sentence (which stated the problem—the devastation of the land by the flood) and the second sentence (which stated the solution—the dam).

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Communication accommodation theory

Explanation:

Communication accommodation theory, developed by Howard Giles, the professor of communication at the University of California, is a theory of communication that explains the adjustments people make while communicating with others. This includes the changes in people's behavior caused by their tendency to adjust their communication to their partner and the degree to which people perceive their partner as appropriately adjusting to them. Made adjustments can be noticed in both verbal communication and gestures. All of this depends on situational, social, cultural and relational contexts.
