Answer: B. allusion

An allusion is a figure of speech in which another object or circumstance is referenced, directly or indirectly. In this passage, the statement "Brueghel's Icarus" refers to a painting by the Dutch painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder, titled "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus." Pieter Bruegel the Elder was the most important painter of the Dutch and Flemish Renaissance.

Can someone write an argumentive essay on why summer is the best season
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The four seasons, winter, summer, autumn and spring fly by like Lightning Mcqueen from the movie Cars,  racing to the finish line. When you talk about the seasons everybody has a different perspective to it. Some might say summer is the best, due to there being no school, also the hot weather. Many may argue that Spring is the best, because of the plants coming back to life after months in the grave, but in my opinion, summer is the best season. in summer, you get a chance to swim since it is so hot outside, you get to have fun since there is not school.  I really enjoy the warm weather because it's the perfect atmosphere to do outdoor activities. ... During summer, you're free to do whatever you want, not worrying about curfew or waking up early for school.

A writer should avoid starting an essay with all of following methods except:
crimeas [40]

Things Not To Do In An Essay:

  • Fail to address the question’s topic in your introduction
  • Stray from the focus of the question (especially in the conclusion)
  • Insert quotes without introducing them or relating them back to the topic
  • Fail to provide references
  • Use informal language, colloquialisms, or overuse rhetorical questions

Things to Do In An Essay:

  • Proper essays require a thesis statement to provide a specific focus and suggest how the essay will be organized.
  • A thesis statement is your interpretation of the subject, not the topic itself.
  • A strong thesis is specific, precise, forceful, confident, and is able to be demonstrated.
  • A strong thesis challenges readers with a point of view that can be debated and can be supported with evidence.
  • A weak thesis is simply a declaration of your topic or contains an obvious fact that cannot be argued.
  • Depending on your topic, it may or may not be appropriate to use first person point of view.
  • Revise your thesis by ensuring all words are specific, all ideas are exact, and all verbs express action.
