When we saw him he was drenched because he _________________________.

English
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is C. i and ii.

Explanation:

You need to use past tense (found in i and ii) because the action took place in the past - we saw him doing something in the past (in this case, cycling). Therefore, this rules out iii. because it's a present moment.

However, if it's his routine (he cycles only in the rain), then iii. would also be correct - so it really depends on how you interpret the sentence (it is a bit ambiguous).

Which description defines an expert in a particular field? (1 point)
IceJOKER [234]

An expert means D) The person has a high degree of knowledge about a topic.

The fact that someone published many books or articles does not signify their expertise in the field. They could be knowledgeable, but this is not the same.

Having a college degree does not making someone an expert, it takes 10,000 hours of focus on one subject to become an expert. Although going to college takes more then 10,000 hours, that time is not spent dedicated to learning that specific subject, but rather an array of subjects.

Working in the same job for a long time does not show expertise. People get locked into a job for many reasons. Doing the same thing over and over can help growth, but only to a certain extent.

Therefore, D is the only right answer.

I hope this helps! :)

 does anyone know the figurative language being used in women by alice walker. and what quote it is.
swat32

Answer:

Implied metaphor.

<em>"How they battered down </em>

<em>Doors </em>

<em>And ironed </em>

<em>Starched white </em>

<em>Shirts </em>

<em>How they led </em>

<em>Armies </em>

<em>Headragged generals </em>

<em>Across mined </em>

<em>Fields </em>

<em>Bo oby-trapped </em>

<em>Ditches"</em>

Explanation:

Alice Walker's poem "Women" is a poem about women in general and how they fight for their children's right to education. The poem is written in short, at times, monosyllable lines, where the speaker talks of mothers and their hard work to get an education for their children.

Figurative languages are the elements of writing that writers employ in their writing to give more 'color' and 'body' to their work. And in this poem, Alice Walker uses an implied metaphor. This element can be seen in the lines

<em>How they battered down </em>

<em>Doors </em>

<em>And ironed </em>

<em>Starched white </em>

<em>Shirts </em>

<em>How they led </em>

<em>Armies </em>

<em>Headragged generals </em>

<em>Across mined </em>

<em>Fields </em>

<em>Bo oby-trapped </em>

<em>Ditches</em>

Here, the speaker makes a comparison between the women/ mothers and several personalities like army generals, or army commanders, and other daily workers. These efforts by the mothers are for their children to <em>"discover books, desks, a place"</em> to get an education which they themselves weren't able to access.

Thus, the figurative language used in this poem is an implied metaphor.

Your mother is from another country; you of all people should be sympathetic to immigrants. what Match the fallacy with its name
Fiesta28 [93]
I think the answer would be : Ad hominem

It's a form of argument whcih directed to a person based on his/her position that they're into or the personal relation that he/she has within the argument
In this case,  this argument will not be viable if her mother is not an immigrant

hope this helps

Can someone please write a short free verse poem about Eurydice? please
monitta
The two lovers seemed doomed from the day. Set up like a bowling pin, and knocked out the very way.
How could they live with out each other, not a peak nor a stare or a quick view of one another.
Cast down to the pits of Hades they remain, and not each and everyone nor wits are the same.
Eurydice once bit. Tragedy came in a lickety- Split.
