Answer:
We use Conditional tenses to talk about hypothetic situations in the future, in the past, and to talk about events that would have happened.
a. If we were to be hit by an iceberg, we would die.
b If my cat were to eat a mouse, it would be a predator.
c If I were never to go in the sun, I would be extremely pale.
Explanation:
Conditional tenses communicate hypothetical situations in the past, theories about what might have happened, what happens concerning facts that are always true, and events with a low probability to occur in the future.
The sentences in this exercise are using conditionals to talk about situations in the present or future that probably will not happen.
We use:
the word if + the subject + were to,.... + subject + would + verb in the infinitive....
In formal writing, we can use the subjects he, she, and it with the auxiliary were instead of was and then the verb in the infinitive. For example, If he were to fail his test, he would be sad.
Answer:
The best answer to the question: What type of figurative language is "It was "illegal" to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler´s Germany. But I am sure that, if O had lived in Germany during that time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal", would be, Allusion.
Explanation:
This particular excerpt comes from Martin Luther King´s "Letter from Brimigham Jail" when Dr. King is being accused of injustice in his attempt at aiding the cause for the Civil Rights Movement. The speech that is born from his time in jail, is probably one of the most literary-rich texts ever written, with a lot of figurative language having been used by Dr. King, in his attempt to sway people, and convince them to see, the righteousness of his cause. Figurative language is a technique in literature, and writing, that serves as a means to indirectly express a specific purpose, but through subtle, and sometimes hidden, symbols, words, images, or other such techniques. Figurative language seeks to engage the creative and interpretive mind of an audience or reader and to stimulate their capacity to feel moved by the messages being sent through the senses. In this excerpt, Dr. King uses a particular figurative language device called Allusion, which is literally a device in which the writer uses historical data, facts and stories, in order to convey a specific message to the audience. By mentioning Hitler, and Nazi Germany, Dr. King alludes to the American people to compare the two cases: the African American Civil Rights cause, and the situation of the Jews unjustly punished by the Nazis, and helps Americans to have a historical reference that will convince them of the need to support the Civil Rights cause.
The correct answer is the following.
Recycling is a necessity not a commodity.
Recycling helps to take care of the environment. As simple as it sounds. Right now, it is not a matter of we want to protect the environment. Today is a requisite if we really want to live on this planet for the years to come.
The Earth is very polluted, the weather is changing, the seas have environmental issues. Humanity must do its part to cooperate.
Let politicians do its job with the big industries and the legislation. Let people, the everyday citizen to do its part and cooperate with the protection of the environment.
Recycling is one way to do it. Cumbersome? Probably, but it really does not represent a big problem. It just takes minutes to recycle. It just takes a moment to recycle. Everybody has the time to go to the recycling stations and cooperate.
We only have one planet: the Earth. We only have one chance: now.
