Answer:

"The sun peered at the ravens from behind the cloud." - Personification

"The flock of ravens darkened the sky like thunderclouds." - Simile

"Snow, that great eraser, made the flock of ravens disappear." - Metaphor

Explanation:

Personification is the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

A simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two things, using the words "like" or "as."

A metaphor also compares two things, however metaphors say something is something else, not using the words "like" or "as."

Answer:

personification, simile, metaphor

Explanation:

  • "<u>the sun peered</u> at the ravens from behind the clouds" is personification. personification is when something non-human is given human qualities. "peered" is a verb, and it means to look at someone or something, often searchingly or with difficulty. the sun is not a living human being, therefore writing that the sun "peered" is giving a human behavior or quality to a non-human object.
  • "the flock of ravens <u>darkened the sky like thunderclouds</u>" is a simile. a simile is a type of figurative language that compares something using the word "like" or "as" (and in this example, the word "like" is used.)
  • "<u>snow, that great eraser</u>, made the flock of ravens disappear" is a metaphor. a metaphor is a comparison, as is a simile, but a metaphor DOES NOT use "like" or "as." instead, it draws a direct comparison. in this sentence, snow is being compared to a "great eraser." notice how there is no "like" or "as" within the comparison, because the snow is directly being compared with an eraser.

Write a rough draft and a normal story about a haunted house with Spooky,creaky,scary,creepy,cursed,dark, black,loud,crackly,til
Ksju [112]

Answer:

See explanation below, please.

Explanation:

No one should have come to the Windstrom Haunted House party that year, but you know how it is. You just loved to break the rules at any and every possible opportunity. But this night was not the night for that. In fact, it was not the night for anyone, especially you.

But you put on your costume-a witch, of course- and traveled with some friends. You'd've forgotten their names by now, wouldn't you? Still, you all went together.

When you all arrived at the haunted house, the decorations seemed to pop out of a stage-like figure. Slime oozed from cracks in the walls, and monster props like the werewolves and ghosts were glowing.

You rubbed your hands together devilishly. This was your kind of haunted house. "Hey, maybe we shouldn't go in," a friend in your group said. "We-we don't have anything to defend ourselves with, in case <em>he</em> shows up."

A hearty laugh emanated from your throat. "<em>He? </em>Who's <em>he? </em>Ronald Mcdonald? Being scared of clowns is so childish. Grow up, will you?"

Your friend looked at you with pale, clear eyes. "No one should laugh in the face of Ronald Mcdonald the clown. But I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about... Peter. Do you want to hear the story?"

You and everyone else in your group sighed and said, "Okay."

But, because you pulled everyone into the haunted house, you only heard the story in increments, but this is what you got from it:

<em>A young man by the name of Rosie McSwindle lived in the town now known as Windstrom. He was quite fine and handsome, but everyone poked at him because of his name. Eventually, Rosie had had enough and went to see Yzma, the town sorcerer. He asked for a spell to change his name, but Yzma warned the man that this would change much more than that. Rosie did not care and took the potion. At first, everything seemed well. His name was now a proper man's name, and all the ladies and gents swooned over him. But soon, things started to change for the worse. He soon turned into... a woman! And now he got made fun of even more than when he was a man with a woman's name. Now, the ghost of Peter Dillums roams the Windstrom Haunted Houses, looking for those who poke fun at his misfortune.</em>

<em> </em>You laughed even more than if you hadn't of heard the story in the first place. Your friend was flabbergasted at your dismissive behavior. "W-wait! Why are you laughing? You should be terrified."

"Come on!" you laughed. "Why would you believe such a children's tale? It's Halloween! We should enjoy it."

And you did. Oh, you very much did.

(Sorry I didn't include many of the elements you listed. But this is the draft of the first part of the story. You can include whatever you want. Besides, it is <em>your </em>story.)

Why mixed school is better than single sex school​
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Socialization.

Explanation:

In my opinion, mixed school is better than single sex or gender school. I believe this because, students placed in single sex school may develop social anxiety around the opposite gender in their future. Social anxiety could be the fear of going to the grocery store alone all the way to never leaving their house and such. An equality important fact is that the student placed in single sex school may no longer feel as if that gender and sex fits who they are. The student may be nonbinary, transgender, or genderfluid. And growing up enrolled in single sex school would have a huge negative impact on the students mental health and overall wellness. Mixed schools, will likely show more equality. But it is important to remember there are positive thibgs about being in single sex school aswell as mixed school.

Hope I helped! Please give brainliest!!! Have an amazing year and remember your worth!
