English
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]3 years ago
6 0
1. The answer is A.<span> Hyperbole

Hyperbole is a stylistic element in prose and poetry that involves the use of exaggerated claims that are not literal in meaning. Hyperbole is useful in creating a dramatic effect when the writer is trying to explain a phenomenon or feeling to the reader. For instance, in the passage above the sentence, "</span><span>His heart was overflowing with love for people, animals, and things and with an all-engulfing sense of optimism and joy" involves the use of exaggeration and non-literal claims to paint a picture of a "happy man" to the reader. 

2. The correct answer is </span><span>B. Symbols generally have only one meaning.

Literary symbols such as figures of speech, metaphors, alliteration, etc., enhance the meaning of a text, adding a dramatic effect when discussing characters, objects and situations. They do not have only one meaning. While literary symbols usually have a primary intended meaning for the reader, they have multiple meanings subject to the reader's interpretations of the text. </span><span>

Zahra is writing an essay about "The Most Dangerous Game." Which excerpt from the story best supports her idea that Rainsford is
OverLord2011 [107]

The answer is "A certain cool-headedness had come to him; it was not the first time he had been in a tight place."

Explanation:

The purpose of writing an essay is to prove a certain point of view; moreover, to achieve this, it is necessary to add evidence that explains or prove the point of view. This means if the focus of Zara is to show Rainsford (the main character) is a rational individual and does not panic, the best is to include a section that shows this behavior. According to this, the most appropriate excerpt is "A  certain cool-headedness had come to him; it was not the first time he had been in a tight place" because, in this, Rainsford shows a calm and logical behavior, even though at this point he had fallen of a yacht and it is indanger, which shows his ability to avoid panic during pressure or difficult situations

Pretend you are an advice columnist who writes a “Teacher Hotline” column for an educational journal.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello, Discouraged Teacher,

I have had this problem with my peers before in my life, This girl kept on saying that I was annoying and saying I was always being rude, I pointed out that I just try my best, but she still didn't want to listen, we eventually took a break from each other.

Maybe instead of pointing out their weaknesses, go from a different angle.  Instead of saying, Your doing this wrong and that wrong, maybe say that you can tell a student isn't doing too well and that you want to help in whatever way you can.

Hope this helps!
