School lunches have not always been the tastiest of meals. And they are sometimes not the healthiest of meals. Therefore, childh

ood weight gain is a growing problem. Today, many schools serve fast food items like french fries and pizza as everyday meals. Although these are popular foods in school, they lead to the weight problems that kids now have. Because of this problem, a food revolution is taking place across the country. Schools are trying to change their menus. Many schools have started to adopt healthier options. However, there is still much to be done before things change. First of all, kids must warm up to idea—they, of course, are eating the food. Vending machines with junk food should be taken out of schools. Plus, more money should be provided to fund this program. It is difficult for schools to provide healthy food on fast food costs. Even though there is a call for change, it will take some time before all students can have healthy meals. With healthier meals, students will be more fit and focused as they go through a school day.
1. Which of these sentences is an appropriate paraphrase? Many schools have started to adopt healthier options. However, there is still much to be done before things change. School lunches are going to become healthier so that kids do better in school. However, it is going to take some time for every student to get these lunches. Even though there is a call for change, it will take some time before all students can have healthy meals. With healthier meals, students will be more fit and focused as they go through a school day. Today, many schools serve fast food items like french fries and pizza as everyday meals. Although these are popular foods in school, they lead to the weight problems that kids now have.

Dad: “It’s just like this great song I heard a couple of miles back, “Big Daddy was a Truck-Drivin’ Man!”
qwelly [4]

Answer: Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is a comparison literary device that refers to something as another thing to highlight that they are similar in a certain manner. This is much like a simile but does not use the words, "as" or "like".

In this sentence, Big Daddy is referred to as a "Truck-Drivin' Man" to highlight that he shares some similarities to a truck driving man thereby making it a metaphor.

Which sentence is parallel?
koban [17]
The correct option is this: HE RAN DOWN THE STEP, JUMPED IN HIS CAR AND QUICKLY DROVE OFF.
When writing a parallel sentence, one must ensure that the words used are in the same form. For instance, the sentence, Mary like to ski, to swim and to jump is a parallel sentence. It will be wrong to say that, Mary like to ski, to swim and jumping. In this case, you can see that the words placed in front of 'to' did not rhyme all through.<span />

why did shakespheres noble characters speak in iambic pentameter while commoners spoke mainly in blank verse or prose
Sergio [31]
1. First, Shakespeare wrote his plays in blank verse featuring iambic pentameter because that was the style of the day. Think of it as a way for an author to show off--and it really is quite impressive if one thinks about it. There are very few authors who can create characters and plots as rich as Shakespeare's and write their lines in a consistent meter. 2. Secondly (I think that this might be what you are asking), when Shakespeare's characters speak in verse (iambic pentameter), they are usually the noble (aristocratic) characters, and their speech represents their high culture and position in society. If you simply look at one of Shakespeare's plays, you can often tell when the commoners are speaking because their lines will go from margin to margin (this is true, too, of nobles who are acting like commoners--whether they're involved in evil schemes, losing their minds, or are drunk!). In contrast, Shakespeare's other characters' lines should sound and look different to you--they should sound "sing-songy" and should look like poetry with uneven lengths. A good example of this is from Othello. When Iago is speaking to his peers or to those in position of authority over them, his speech is in verse, but when he is plotting and talking to Roderigo (especially at the play's beginning), his lines are not in iambic pentameter--this represents the bawdy nature of his speech and, in truth, the baseness of his character.

Which of the following is not an example of a job skill
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

A). Attending work everyday.

Explanation:

Job skill is described as a set of abilities or talents that permits an individual to accomplish a particular job. A candidate while appearing for a job needs to propose a list of his skills or abilities to the employer in order to qualify for the post. These skills include management and leadership skills, technical skills, organizational skills, analytical skills, etc. which could be learned through experiential learning.

In the given question, 'attending work every day' does not exemplify a job skill as it does not reflect one's ability to accomplish a specific job but rather doing it with punctuality while the other options like 'being creative, working well in groups or teams, or being good with computers' exemplify expertise or talent that can help accomplish various jobs at an organization. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
