The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer: False

Explanation:

This is a reading comprehension question that can only be answered by reading the provided text about computers. There, we can find an explanation about the origin of the word "computer," which had been used to refer to a person that was able to carry out calculations. It was only by the end of the 19th century that the word acquired a new meaning to describe the machines built to carry out computations.

So the statement is false: the word "computer" is not a new term​.

Identify three to five types of figurative language commonly used in poetry and narratives.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Symbolism, irony, imagery, metaphors, and allusions.

Explanation:

Symbolism is when an object or idea begins to stand for more than it literally represents, through the use of repetition. Irony is used to draw attention to the contrast between what is expected by the reader and the reality of what actually occurs. Imagery is using descriptive words to help the reader visualize a setting or scene. Metaphors equate two things that are not the same for the sake of comparison. Allusions indirectly reference an event, person, or object

Read: ‘Chasing Memories’ In Their Refugee Camp 40 Years After

Fleeing Vietnam , by Hansi Lo Wang (2015)

What is the Lo Wang’s main purpose in writing this piece? Cite evidence from the text in your response.

Answer:

The 40-year reunion was important for the former refugees because the Refugee Camp was their home at the time and they need to reconnect with those who they met there as a means to preserve their family history.

Explanation:

Although the refugees didn´t spend more than a few months at Fort Indiantown Gap, 40 years later they felt the need to reconnect with the people they had met there.  

Like many others, Lo Wang’s mother was disappointed not to find anyone she had known back then because the refugees lost contact after leaving the site.
