Answer:

4. Which sentence contains a cliché? Sentence B.

5. The flowers were dry and thirsty, as was the lawn which was turning brown, but I was of no use during this drought that came on fast and killed all the plants and foliage.

6. I would have to say the answer is B, as well.

Explanation:

Note: A cliché is a trite expression, often a figure of speech whose effectiveness has been worn out through overuse and excessive familiarity.

In sentence C, "faster than a speeding bullet" is a cliché

In sentence A, the cliché here is that "children are well behaved only because they want things"', however no particular figure of speech was used to describe it.

The only sentence that uses lots of clichés and figures of speech is sentence B, and as stated above it's re-written without any of that - just straightforward like the question asks.

I hope this helps? If it does, please mark this as the Brainliest answer?

5. Analyze Wiesel includes statements and reactions from other prisoners,

Svetach [21]

Answer:

They claim that the concentration camp is much better than it was before and that Wiesel should consider himself lucky to have made it to that moment.

Explanation:

When Elie arrives at the concentration compound, called Buna, the prisoners claim that compared to before, Buna is now a paradise. Elie doesn't understand how that place can be a paradise, since it looks like hell on earth. However, the veterans claim that before the concentration camp had no water or food, the prisoners had no blankets and slept naked amid the negative temperature, being a miracle that some of them survived. New prisoners would not experience as bad an experience as veterans, even if their situation was not good either.

Claim: High school students should not have to do chores.

Len [333]

Answer:

Two reasons I support this claim are because high school students are already stressed and tired anough as it is, by the time they come home they just want to relax and not have to worry about anything like chores. My second reason is because students have so many activities and extracuricular sports and such that they have to study for or participate in, when they don't get their chores done their parents will usually get mad at them which adds on to the stress that they are already feeling.

I am currently speaking from experience and from conversations I have had with other highschoolers. Two possible counterclaims could be that students need to learn how to do household chores when they're young so they will be prepared for when they move out on their own and because some chores are easy small and simple things to do and it wouldn't hurt to pick up a few pieces of trash or to take the trash out. I would say that the first counterclaim while in some cases could be true is also wrong, because most chores you don't have to learn how to do. You don't have to practice taking the trash out or doing the dishes. And while it wouldn't hurt to pick up a piece of trash or do the dishes, a lot of parents have unrealistic expectations when it comes to chores. I would state my counter-counterclaims and provide more backup research/evidence as to why I am correct.
