Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Breakfast was amazing, <u>but</u> I kept knocking stuff off the breakfast table. I couldn't work properly <u>because</u> I had stayed up the whole night typing away without stopping on the huge computer <em>like a beaver tirelessly building a dam out of wood</em>. I somehow managed to go to school where I had to write more boring essays. Finally, the bell rung to signal the start of lunchtime. A most heavenly time.

<u>Underlined</u>= conjunctions

Bold= descriptive words

<em>Italics</em>= figurative language

Explanation:

First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.

Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.

Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.

Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.

Hope this helps.

ella [17]

Answer:

Thoreau's usage of several rhetorical questions upon one another helps eloquently establish a rhythm to present similar, but different argumentative key points. Moreover, it gives a rhythm to the text right off the start. Ultimately, it enables him to set up his argument against morals and values that he claims are being controlled by the government, and as well setting an argument for individualism.

Explanation:

The author does not make many direct statements; however, he does use the device of rhetorical questions that are meant to not be answered by neither the reader nor the text.
