Read the paragraph. The moment that Jack learned he was going to go to soccer camp, time began to move as slowly as a snail. He

had been saving all year to be able to go to camp. His parents were proud of his hard work, so they surprised him by helping him pay for camp and completing the registration. Six more long weeks to go! All Jack could think about was camp, and it made each day seem like a week. To take his mind off things, he decided to put more time into practicing. When it was time to go, he would be ready! What is the meaning of the simile in the paragraph?

Answer: That time goes by very slow, like a snail.

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech used to compare something with a different thing. They are often used by writers to make a text more descriptive and entertaining.

Similes commonly follow the same format so they’re easy to identify in a sentence.

There are two types of simile:  

1. Those that use the word ‘as’. Such is the case in this example.

2. Those that use the word ‘like’.

How do the periods in the passage help the reader read
Bess [88]

Answer:

by providing places for the reader to pause

Explanation:

In this text, the reader employs a period every time he finishes a sentence or an important idea. This is appropriate according to the rules of grammar. Periods are meant to indicate separation between different ideas. When reading aloud, periods indicate pauses in the reading. The reader should pause at a period in order to make the reading more fluent. It also allows listeners to better understand the ideas of the text.
