Answer:

A. He acts like he's going to cry.

Explanation:

A subordinating conjunction is a conjunction which marks a transition of time, place, cause or effect relationship between two ideas in the sentence. Also, it decreases the importance of one clause to make the reader analyze which idea among the two is more important than the other. Some of the examples of subordinating conjunction used in the given sentences are 'as', 'unless' and 'because'. In sentence A, there is no subordinating conjunction used.

Finish this simile: English class is like...
Law Incorporation [45]

English class is like receiving presents on your birthday

or

English class is like having to sit through a movie you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over.


<span>Similes are comparisons using the words “like” or “as” in order to give readers a better sense of understanding when there may otherwise be little understanding or not the understanding a writer wishes to convey. What this means is that authors will compare something that may not be known to readers to something that most likely will be known in order to present the best image understood by the most readers.  Because not everyone may have the same perspective of an English class as you, for instance, one way to convey an idea of what English class is to you, the use of a simile would work well.  If you enjoyed your English class you might compare it to something you know your general audience enjoys and write something like “English class is like receiving presents on your birthday” because of how each day’s knowledge is wonderful surprising experience for you.  If you hated English class, you might write something like English class is like having to sit through a movie you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over.  As you can see the use of similes make writing more expressively.</span>

The reason is that she likes him, although she suspects the reason why he pretended to be her guardian's black sheep brother.
