The main idea of this paragraph is: Gertrude Elion was a determined woman who had real life and classroom experiences that helpe

d her learn biochemistry. If sentence 3 is removed from the paragraph, what is the new main idea of the paragraph?
Gertrude Belle Elion was born on Jan. 23, 1918, in New York City.
She graduated from Hunter College in New York City with a degree in biochemistry in 1937.
Unable to obtain a graduate research position because she was a woman, she took a series of jobs, including lab assistant, chemistry and physics teacher in New York City high schools, and research chemist.
During this time she also took classes at New York University, where she earned a master's degree in 1941.
Because she could not devote herself to full-time studies, Elion never received a doctorate.

weeeeeb [17]

The answer is: The personification makes the setting more vivid to the reader.

Figurative language is a nonliteral, metaphorical or symbolic choice of words,  and personification occurs when something nonhuman possesses human qualities, or when an abstract attribute takes human shape.

In the passage from "Morte d'Arthur," by Alfred Lord Tennyson, personification is used to offer readers a more forceful or powerful description of the scene. For example, <em>mighty bones, the wind-sea sang shrill</em> and <em>flakes of foam.</em>

What clues tells us that mercutio really does want to fight tybalt?
RSB [31]
From the very beginning of the scene, as Benvolio is trying to get Mercutio to go home, Mercutio very clearly is trying to instigate a fight. When Tybalt approaches, all he does is sass him and turn his words around into jokes and puns. He says "And but one word with one of us? couple it with <span>something; make it a word and a blow," this taunting of Tybalt shows how badly he does want to fight. </span>
