No ghost stories at camp?

English
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]2 years ago
5 0
The article basically talks about how for years it’s been a tradition at camp where the older kids or adults tell spooky/scary stories to entertain the children. But now they are banning the old tradition using the example of a 14 year old and 8 year old listening to the story. While a 14 year old might get some good sleep, an 8 year spending his first summer away might the frightened and might not enjoy his stay. They go on to say that this tradition brings joy to most once they mature and are able to tell reality from fiction.

What literary devices are used in the sentences below
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The literary device used in the first sentence is a hyperbole or exaggeration, whereas the second sentence uses an oxymoron, as further explained below.

<h3>What is a hyperbole?</h3>

A hyperbole is a literary device that exaggerates something in order to emphasize an idea. In the first sentence we are analyzing here, the hyperbole is found in "a ton of snow." The speaker wishes to emphasize the idea that there was a lot of snow on his car. However, it would be impossible for there to be indeed a ton of it.

<h3>What is an oxymoron?</h3>

The literary device known as oxymoron consists of putting together two words with opposite meanings. In the second sentence, the oxymoron is found in "genuine imitation." If something is genuine, that means it is not fake, not an imitation. So, technically, the two words do not go together.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.

List three factors of cardiac transplantation
Inessa05 [86]
OBJECTIVES: To analyze the occurrence and types of neoplasias that have developed in patients submitted to orthotopic heart transplantation in the Cardiac Transplantation Program of the Paulista School of Medicine, Federal University of São Paulo.
METHODS: The present study presents an observational analysis of 106 patients submitted to orthotopic heart transplantation from November 1986 to September 2002, who survived for more than 30 days after the procedure. The immunosuppressive regimen consisted of triple therapy with cyclosporin A, azathioprine and corticosteroid. Only two patients received, in addition to triple therapy, the addition of orthoclone OKT-3. The mean follow-up period was 61.4 months. (variation from two months to 192 months).
RESULTS: Twenty-three patients (21.3%) developed neoplasias, of which 56.5% had skin neoplasms, 30.1% had solid tumors and 13.4% had post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD). The mean interval between transplantation and the diagnosis of neoplasia was: skin - 54.9 months, solid tumors - 24.8 months and DLPT - 70.3 months.
CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of malignant neoplasms was relatively common in the analyzed population. Skin cancer prevailed in relation to other neoplasms and solid tumors were more diagnosed than lymphoproliferative diseases in this series of patients.

Read the excerpt from the “An Understanding with the Indians (1621)” section from Of Plymouth Plantation.
Nuetrik [128]

The evidence that best shows Squanto's loyalty to the settlers is that which shows that Squanto never abandoned the settlers and accompanied them to the day of his death.

This evidence is best presented by the sentence "... and never left them till he died."

This can be seen in the text above, as this text shows that:

  • Squanto served the colonists willingly.
  • He taught the settlers how to manage the crops.
  • He served as a guide to the region for settlers.
  • He did not view settlers with hostility.
  • He accompanied them while he was alive.

As shown, this excerpt is part of "Of Plymouth Plantation" which is a diary of the first English settlers in America and the hardships they went through.
