Which sentence should be revised for clarity

vichka [17]

Answer:

I believe the sentence that should be revised for clarity to be letter c) The speech that computer science expert gave regarding online data mining was filled with information also very entertaining.

Explanation:

The sentence above presents a quite confusing structure when it mentions the qualities of the speech. The speaker means to say the speech offered information and entertainment, but he/she does it in a strange manner: "was filled with information also very entertaining." We can sense there is a conjunction lacking. Besides that, the use of parallel structures - words or phrases that have the same function - would also be beneficial to the sentence.

There are at least a couple of corrections we can use to improve this structure, as you can see in the options below:

The speech that computer science expert gave regarding online data mining was not only informative but also very entertaining;
The speech that computer science expert gave regarding online data mining was filled with information and entertainment;
The speech that computer science expert gave regarding online data mining was very informative and entertaining.

There are 12 signs of figurative language. Please help I will give you a thanks

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

1. Onomatopoeia → The egg cracked open on the edge of the forest green dish, and the contents sizzled when they hit the red-hot pan.

2. Alliteration → George wanted to show Bonnie how much he loved her with breakfast in bed on her birthday.

3. Simile → He slid the spatula under the pancake on the other burner and flicked his wrist like he was waving a wand.

4. Personification → Shortly after, the bagel jumped up out of the toaster,...

5. Oxymoron → The sweet bitter cranberry juice poured into a glass was final touch.,

6. Metaphor → George was no chef, but he thought it looked awfully good.

Explanation:

Onomatopoeia is known to be the formation of a word by using a sound that is associated with what it is named. e.g sizzled

Alliteration is the use of the same letter to begin words in a sentence. In this paragraph, we see alliteration used in: Bonnie...breakfast...bed...birthday

Oxymoron is known to be a figure of speech which seems contradictory e.g bitter sweet.

Personification is the figure of speech where human characteristics are given to inanimate object. e.g the bagel jumped.

Simile has to do with the comparison of two things using as or like. e.g: ...flicked his wrist like he was waving a wand.

Metaphor is a figure of speech which compares two things in an indirect way without the use of as or like. e.g: George was no chef,...
