In Samuel's Memory, his mother, his aunts, and his uncles had informed young Samuel that his father had died.
It was said that his father was sick and tired, and probably had succumbed to exhaustion or an illness.
Answer:
The correct answer is B (to add personification to “his essay”
).
Explanation:
When the author says his essay won first place, he was over the moon, which means his essay was really good, so the author is adding personification to his "essay", BY SAYING it was over the moon. This is personification because his "essay" cannot literally jump over the moon. This is not possible, so by saying his essay was really good, comparing it to his essay was over the moon, the second sentence would be more personified than the first one.
The correct answer is 'c'
before "The people"
On the sidewalk, the people stared at the fast-moving car.
The sentence keeps meaning and makes sense.
