Answer:

It was a hyperbole, the reason being is that similes would add; it is AS hot and dry as the desert, not just it was hot and dry as the desert.

Similes directly compare by using like or as.

Hyperboles is an exaggeration that doesn't use like or as in order to emphasize its point.

Which convention of the epic genre is employed in Beowulf? (1 point)The hero’s humble origins are traced.

inysia [295]

The correct answer is - The story begins in the thick of the action.

This method is called <em>in medias res - </em>it means that the reader is immediately thrown into the action, no long introductions necessary. We are immediately told what's going on - that the Danes have a problem with the monster Grendel, and that they need Beowulf's help.

There is no lengthy introduction - we are just told that Beowulf is a great hero who can help Denmark. There is no invocation to the muse either, which is a common convention of epic poetry.

Develop a 8 sentence paragraph that includes a claim and evidence supporting the claim.

quester [9]

<em>This is like a story plus a claim following your requests. Hope it helps you, though.</em>

<h3>We call the meeting to order $-- >$ 11:42 AM</h3>

This is the case-claim of the missing french fries. It happened last Sunday, when I made a claim that I witnessed frozen french fries being stolen by a group of people at a store. The store retrieved the fries on Wednesday <em>today</em>. Thankfully, they were not damaged. Still in good condition, still edible. "What evidence is there"? Good question, I saw it at the store and recorded it. I presented the recording, and all is well that ends well!

<em>This claim is not based on an actual case. This is fictional, and any relation to an actual person is purely coincedential.</em>
