Hi!


The correct answer would be Homonyms.


Homonyms are the words that have similar spellings, pronunciation, but different meanings. Example: rose (flower) & rose (past tense of rise) are homonyms.


Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings, are not spelled or pronounced alike generally. Example: hot & cold are antonyms of each other.


Synonyms are words that have similar meanings, and are not spelled or pronounced alike generally. Example: sad & unhappy are synonyms of each other.


Homophones are words that sound alike, but have different meanings and different spellings too. Example: ad & add are homophones.

Answer:

Space travelers discover a planet that shows signs of a race that destroyed itself with advanced technology.

Explanation:

The question you have attached is related to the story of "The Gun" which was published in <em>1952.</em> It was written by Philip K. Dic.k, an American writer. The central theme of the story focuses on<em> a group of space travelers who discovered a planet.</em> They crash landed on the planet because they were shot down. While they were investigating the surrounding area, they noticed an<em> ancient city that was covered in ruins.</em> They also noticed the gun that shot them and they came to know that it was placed there<em> in order to protect the ancient city.</em> As they finished repairing their spacecraft, they destroyed the gun and carried information about the ancient city. However, as they were about to leave the city, <u>there were automated machines that repaired the gun. It was again reloaded.</u> So, this means that it shot their craft once more, probably killing them all.

The story shows how destructive advance technology is for people. The ancient race tried to create the weapon as a means to<em> protect themselve</em>s, but in the end, it <u>killed the ancient race and also killed the present race. It will probably kill more races in the future.</u>

So, this explains the answer.

Compare Ernest Thayer’s “Casey at the Bat” to a typical prose story. What differences and similarities do you notice in the deve
kherson [118]

"<em>Casey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic Sung 1h 1888</em>", is a poem written by Ernest Lawrence Thayer. The story is the end of an inning in a baseball match.

The poem has similarities to a prose story for its clarity and the element of drama. Tne poem conveys the expectation, emotion, and drama of pro sports, and the reaction of the fans that for a moment in that stadium, put their lives on the seats, forgetting all the day to day chores and jobs, and they expect their hero make their dreams come true.

Baseball is a game that really identifies America and its people, and it is shown in the poem, that is written in a very simple way where the verses have four lines and the rhythmical make it sound like some kind of a ballad.
