Answer:

The Cold Equations: She told Gerry that their time was up and so she should leave. She said this trying not to cry, but her voice broke in the middle of the words.

Explanation:

The word paraphrase has a Greek origin (para-phrasis) and generally means “repetition of a sentence”. Paraphrasing a text, therefore, means recreating it with other words, but keeping its original content / thinking unchanged. Paraphrase is a widely used resource in many contexts, being very recurrent in the literary, scientific, religious texts and daily dialogues (when we want to pass on information or tell someone something we hear from others).

babymother [125]

Answer:

Dear diary,

Today I saw a horrible quarrel between my peers.

It was over something as little as a dollar, the two very young boys made a bet, the bet was to see who could spit further away, the reward for spitting the furthest was one dollar. After the game was over and the winner was declared the little boy, he then presented the prize 4 quarters, the other child who had a lack of education was expecting a $1 bill not four quarters, the angry young boy then assaulted the other child who presented the 4 quarters. A ghastly fight then broke out.

Explanation:

To avoid this conflict in the future children should come to an agreement and should be made to get an education.

Excerpt from California Boating Laws
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<em>I can see that there's no underlined part of sentence 5. I believe the underlined part is </em><em>"any beacon."</em>

The answer is : A) any lighthouse

Explanation:

<u>Sentence 5</u> provides a<em> "hint"</em> by stating "erected on land." This means that the <u>object is on land and not in the sea.</u> Among the choices that is suitably related to the topic and erects on the land is the "lighthouse." So, instead of using the word "beacon," it can be replaced with "any lighthouse."

So, this explains the answer.

Which genre uses techniques such as figurative language to explore thoughts about a subject in a concise way?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The answer is a lyric poem.  

Explanation:

A lyric poem is short, highly musical verse that conveys powerful feelings. The poet may use rhyme, meter, or other literary devices to create a song-like quality. A lyric poem is a private expression of emotion by a single speaker. For example, American poet Emily Dickinson described inner feelings when she wrote her lyric poem that begins, "I felt a Funeral, in my Brain, / And Mourners to and fro."

Song lyrics often begin as lyric poems. In ancient Greece, lyric poetry was, in fact, combined with music played on a U-shaped stringed instrument called a lyre. Through words and music, great lyric poets like Sappho (ca. 610–570 B.C.) poured out feelings of love and yearning.

Lyric poetry also has no prescribed form. Sonnets, villanelles, rondeaus, and pantoums are all considered lyric poems. So are elegies, odes, and most occasional (or ceremonial) poems. When composed in free verse, lyric poetry achieves musicality through literary devices such as alliteration, assonance, and anaphora.
