This question is missing the original sentence. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

The planet Jupiter, named for the king of the Roman gods, has rings composed of dust particles ejected during impact with incoming comets and asteroids.

Which words should be changed to make the sentence more appropriate for a general audience?

A) Jupiter and Roman

B) rings and dust

C) composed and ejected

D) named and during

Answer:

The words that should be changed to make the sentence more appropriate for a general audience is:

C) composed and ejected

Explanation:

<u>When writing for general audiences, we should choose words that are conversational. That means adapting our writing to make sure people in general can understand the message, instead of focusing on a group of people with specific vocabulary.</u>

In the sentence we are analyzing here, two words that are less conversational and, therefore, a bit more uncommon are <u>"composed" and "ejected". To make sure everyone could understand the message, we could change them by replacing with more common synonyms, such as "formed" and "released", respectively.</u>

Why does the narrator compare the dirty pair of socks to a "sad little salted<br>slug"?​
PIT_PIT [208]

<u>Reason for comparing the dirty pair of socks to a "sad little salted </u>

<u>slug":</u>

A slug is a small but slimy creature that gets dehydrated when enough salt is poured upon it. It loses water, shrivels up looking dirty and eventually dies.  Apparently, a salted slug is not a happy creature as it is sure to die as soon as it loses all its water. Thus, it is a ‘sad little salted slug’.

The narrator in the three minute fiction ‘Not That I Care’ describes one of the pair of socks left by a character Marcus making use of simile, a literary device of comparison. The comparison is made between common characteristics of the two things compared.

Out of the two socks forming one pair, one lies in front, easily visible, dirty and all curled up while the other one is hiding under the bed.

The comparison implies that it was mucky and repelling like a salted slug.  It was lying unattended like a salted slug devoid of vitality. Simply thrown away carelessly in the house, it seemed sad too. The narrator had no intention of touching it, so the chances of its revival were bleak.
