Answer:

The answer is: a block of ice as long as a football field.

Explanation:

Appositive is a noun or noun phrase that sits next to another noun and renames or describes it in another way.

In writing an appositive, you offset with a comma or dash.

In the sentence above, the phrase "a block of ice as long as a football field" is the appositive.

This is because it is renaming and describing the noun "glacier."

How to start a sentence off when describing someone?
JulijaS [17]
Well it really depends.

If you are describing a 12 year old girl, with brown hair and brown eyes it could go something like this:

"The young, twelve year old girl, had long brown curls that fell to her shoulders. Her chocolate brown eyes were as dark as her hair and stood out on her pale, freckled skin. She was - in short - lovely." 

If you are describing... let's say... a 16 year old boy with black hair and blue eyes it could go something like this:

"The young man turned his crystal blue eyes in my direction and I looked away quickly so as not to be caught staring. "How old are you?" He asked. "Sixteen," I replied timidly, twirling my long hair around my finger. "Me too," He replied, flicking his shoulder length black hair out of his eyes."
