6) Of this examples, the sentence containing an idiom is B.

The phrase "stand a chance" does not have any meaning that can be deduced from the individual words. It was through usage that it acquired the meaning of "having the possibility of doing something".

7) The diction from the excerpt of "And of Clay Are We Created?" is C: vivid and figurative.

The words in this sentence creates a very vivid image of war, the soldiers' dispair and the dreadful image of bodies rotting in the mud.

At the same time, the tone is figurative because the author uses the word "infinite" to express that there was a great amount of dead animals; and uses the expression "viscous soup" to refer to the mixture of rotting bodies, dead animals and mud.

The answer to question 6 is B. You stand a chance is an idiom to say that someone has a possibility to something. An idiom is an expression that doesn't adapt to grammatical rules or the literal usage of the words, "stand a chance" doesn't make sense if one reads each word as literal, stand as a verb wouldn't be referring to a chance.


And the answer to question is C. Vivid means that it produces intense mental images and figuratve that a word isn't being used completely literally. Both can be seen in the phrase "putrefying in a viscous soup" for example

When do we use a semicolon with independent clauses?
marta [7]
You use the semicolon with an independent clause when you join two of the independent clauses in a sentence without using a conjunction. So basically the semicolon replaces the conjunction when you're combining two independent clauses.
