7. A large number of the country's craft villiages have suffered from a shortage of human resources and differences in building brand recognition, so many international organizations have had projects to help them.
Explanation:
Did my best. I had a hard time with 7 because I did not understand the question.
The statement which best describes the mistake the writer makes in the paragraph is the following one:
The writer loses focus and shifts to another topic.
He starts off by pointing out the overall benefits of exercising, and supports his idea by also giving examples of activities people should engage in. However, focus is lost when the writer begins to address the importance of a balanced diet to the body. That would require a new paragraph.
Rising action? I'm pretty sure that's the answer. but I was a little confused at what you were trying to get across.
Question 4: simile
The simile in the excerpt is "His beard was as white as snow." A simile is a comparison between two things using like or as. In this simile the color of his beard is compared to the snow. As to the other options, personification is giving a nonhuman thing human-like traits. Everything in the excerpt is human. Allusion is a reference to another literary work. There is no reference. Metaphor is a comparison between two things without using like or as. This uses as so it is a simile and not a metaphor.
Question 5: He plans to pretend that he has gone mad.
When Hamlet talks about "an antic disposition", he means that he is going to change his mood to one of madness. It is important to remember that mad actually means insane or crazy, not angry.
Question 6: Hamlet is saying that his madness changes like the weather, and that he is only mad some of the time.
In this piece of dialogue Hamlet is speaking of his madness like it's the wind. The wind changes directions just like his madness can change. He is trying to tell his friends that his madness is not constant but instead changes.
