Answer: No!

Explanation:

Flask is a container for liquids. It's not a liquid but a container for a liquid and you don't drink a container so no.

Hope this helps :)

You cannot drink a flask thus it is a container only but you can drink what is in the flask. You could say “I’m drinking the soda Inside the flask”

Read the excerpt from “A Visit from the Goon Squad.” Scotty climbed onto the platform and sat on the stool. Without a glance at
BlackZzzverrR [31]
To answer this question, we first have to clarify some terms.

A frame story occurs when a story is told within a story. For example, in the movie "The Princess Bride," the story is told by a grandfather telling a story to his grandson. The story he tells is about the Princess Bride. The above excerpt does not have a frame structure. As a result, option B. can be eliminated.

A flashback occurs when a segment of the story goes back in time. For example, if the narrator is in the middle of a scene and then thinks about a time from his childhood, that is a flashback. However, in this excerpt from the novel, all of the action is occurring in the present. As a result, option D. can be eliminated.

That leaves options A. and C. It is clear the narration is occurring in chronological order. However, is that the best answer? To decide, look closely at what is happening in the scene. 

The narrator is doing two things here. First, the narrator describes Scotty's actions. Second, the narrator is commenting on them. For example: He begins to play a song, but then the narrator switches to commentary and describes the song's "gushy metallic complexity." Scotty plays two more songs, and the narrator comments "their amplification was fine." This format continues throughout the selection.

Therefore, the best answer to this question is option A: Multiple switches are used between the action and commentary.

• Why is baseball in all its forms – from T-ball to the major leagues – important to Americans of all ages?
Zolol [24]

Baseball is important to Americans of all ages because it evokes a sense of nostalgia and excitement among the younger generation. Unlike basketball or football, an average individual with no real specifications for height and weight can play the game. In the early 20th century, historians note that most of the major American cities had a professional baseball league. Also, Americans are credited for introducing baseball to Japan in the 1870's by an American professor.
