Answer:

The correct answer is the sentence: "So before a battle begins, the horses paw the ground; toss their heads; the light shines on their flanks; their necks curve. So Peter Walsh and Clarissa, sitting side by side on the blue sofa, challenged each other."

Explanation:

In this sentence, the author is using the metaphor of horses preparing for battle to illustrate how the characters are behaving. Just as the horses paw the ground, challenging each other in a show of strength, Clarissa and Peter also sit next to each other preparing to challenge one another.

What is the best insurance to have for teens life, health or auto and why?
Liula [17]

Answer: All of them would be best, but in my opinion health insurance would be best, as the teen would have to go to the doctor for vaccines and check ups. Those are usually not cheap without insurance. In the event that teen gets hurt, enough for surgery, the insurance should cover the cost of that procedure.

Though you could argue for all of the other ones.

*ABUELITO WHO* (CommonLit text)
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Refer below.

Explanation:

The author use the figurative language of "coins" and "rain" in both the opening and closing lines of the poem (Line 1 and Lines 20-21) to help develop the poem's meaning so as to portray her memories about her granddad. Cisneros has utilized comparison, which is a hyperbole, all through the sonnet. The primary capacity of metaphor is to make a correlation with show the similitudes between two unique things. Besides, likeness is generally joined by words, for example, "as" and "like". In the content, there are two instances of this saying: "Abuelito who throws coins like rain" (line 1)/"is the rain on the room that falls like coins" (line 21). Likeness has helped the creator build up the importance of the sonnet, that is, to describe about specific recollections she has of her granddad or "abuelito", a warm term for a granddad in Spanish. For example, Cisneros utilized allegorical language and metaphor in line 1 to portray how her granddad played with her creation coins fall like raindrops from above.
