it depends on the subject
This type of question is really personal. Since I don't know if you have a religion or belief, I will answer with my general knowledge and experience. Feel free to change and adapt this answer to make it fit you.
Answer and Explanation:
Even though I do not see organized religion as something good for me, I do understand the benefits it brings to people in general. Institutions are always flawed, no matter how sacred and lofty the beliefs they preach. However, those institutions offer support and structure to people who enjoy the sense of belonging to a community of like-minded individuals.
At a personal level, I do not see the need to travel to a temple or to memorize prayers and chants. I see myself - body, mind and soul - as a sanctuary. By simply taking a moment, be it minutes or hours, to focus on something without any specific goal, simply for the sake of clearing my mind, I can find peace. I believe human beings are a manifestation of the very universe we observe. We are the universe being aware of itself and its other manifestations. Therefore, I believe we can find, in silence and peace, a sense of self that exacerbates all self-centeredness.
Peace comes from the acceptance of what is. It comes from beholding my own existence, as well as the existence of everything else, as sacred. In this thought, I find love for myself and for the world.
Answer:
First two & last two
Explanation:
The first two and last two have to do specifically with comparing reports and editorials. Those are the only two topics to be focused on, so other genres don't matter.
Important point: My room mate has contributed to the mess within the apartment, but has not completed their half of the chores. I want to ask them politely to help out more.
Message: "Hey! I was doing my chores the other day and I noticed you haven't finished yours. I don't mean to bother you, but the apartment's starting to stink like trash (simile) and the dish pile up is a natural disaster waiting to happen (metaphor). Do you think you could handle that soon? Do you think you're too busy and may need more time (repetition/anaphora)? I would do it myself, but I have a lot on my plate and I'd hate to be late (rhyme) to work".
In my answer I used two examples of figurative language (metaphor and simile) and two sound devices (rhyme and repetition). I hope this helps! Please rate my answer according to how useful it was to you :)
Answer:
C. Emily's sister gave birth to two twins.
Explanation:
A redundancy is when you say something two times in the same sentence, using different words that express the same, form example in the sentence, it says that Emily´s sister gave birht to two twins, when you are saying that she gave birth to twins you already know that there were two of them, you don´t need to say two twins, that´s a redundancy.
