Hurryyyyy!!!Which choice best revises sentence 3 so that it
dem82 [27]

Answer:

D). In Heart of a Samurai, Manjiro is faced with grave dangers, such as finding enough food to survive and swimming to the boats filled with barbarians.

Explanation:

The last choice most aptly revises sentence 3 as it is grammatically and lexically coherent. <u>The use of commas after the introductory prepositional phrases and before the beginning of examples('such as....barbarians') is appropriate which clearly signifies the separation of words/phrases and makes the meaning more clear and evident for the readers to understand</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Poetry Writing:<br> 'Rise when you fall'
Novay_Z [31]

Rise and Fall

Firm as a rock and more cruel than a Barbarian was this fellow

He was a horrid and tenebrous master

The crown prince of Raptor the undefeated kingdom

He made many plans and all were costly

Soon he became as poor as a beggar

So a wedding became his solution out of debt

The prince wed the wonderful Etta from the kingdom of Tep and soon became king after he murdered his father in such brutal matter, he was a barbaric being and such thing was a fact

After a while he had a daughter, and a creature with a green complexion and human features asked for his daughter that he may be wed to her when she was all grown

However the Prince who was now King did not delight in such a matter and threw the creature out of his castle and cast him out of his kingdom

The creature swore to have the girl as a bride and to leave the King in ruin

In the meantime the king drank and enjoyed himself like a hummingbird

He pleased himself in torturing men and women alike and pleased himself in having multiple women, he was like an animal

However, soon came the day when the baby girl was now 18 years of age

She would dream of monsters and all sorts of creatures and she was drawn to them, she was a woman of visions

She would frequently dream of a green fellow who had human characteristics yet his face was abnormal yet she drew a liken to him

In a day like any other she went outside the castle and heard a beautiful flute playing so she followed the tune, it drove her out of the kingdom only to find the creature she dreamed of so much

When both saw each other they embraced and tears flowed from both cheeks

He asked from her, her hand in marriage and she accepted and afterwards they eloped

Now having taken the princess away and forming the scandal that it was with a horrendous creature the King would no longer receive benefit from Ettas parents

They no longer gave him silver coins to use it on the things he most desired, he was in ruin once more so due to desesperarían he took a dagger and plunged it into his heart

What does the argument was a thunderstorm of words mean
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

This is a metaphor.

Explanation:

When you compare something to something else, without using "like" or "as", it is a metaphor. In this situation, the argument was so loud and angry, it was like a thunderstorm. Imagine with rain pelting down, and thunder and lightening. Big, loud, and scary.
