Answer:

The underlined word is pent-up, so the meaning is C. stored up.

Explanation:

The noun pen  can refer to a small enclosure for domestic animals. The verb to pen, thus, refers to the action of confining something in or as in a pen. The past participle form of pen is pent. Thus, the adjective pent-up refers to something that has been confined, repressed, held or kept inside.

In the context of the sentence "His pent-up energy found an outlet in a raucous game of tag football", the best option for a synonym or meaning to pent-up is C. stored up. It can actually substitute the adjective without any loss to the sentence:

"His stored-up energy found an outlet in a raucous game of tag football."

Locate the topic sentence. Tell which paragraph shape and pattern type this paragraph is. 1The art of letter writing seems to ha
zalisa [80]

Answer:

1The art of letter writing seems to have declined sharply in recent years.

Shape and pattern type : the information has been organised in terms of cause-effect, however,  the topic sentence has the effect and the other sentences unfold the possible causes. This is a top down approach.

Explanation:

The  topic sentence holds the most important idea: the fact the art of writing has turned  rapidly into an activity from the past has been well noticed  in recent years: <em>effect.</em> Then, these are the possible <em>causes</em>: the high cost of stationary and postage; people's lack of time for writing; change of means of communicating with friends; and the instant access to friends and family members through other means of communication.
