Answer:

I <u>met</u> Tom and Jane at the airport a few weeks ago. They <u>were going</u> to Paris and I <u>was going</u> to Rome. We <u>had</u> a cht  while we <u>were waiting</u> for our flights.

I <u>was cycling </u> home yesterday when a man  <u>stepped</u> out into the road in front of me. I <u>went</u> quite fast, but luckily I <u>managed</u> to stop in time and <u>didn't hit </u> him.

I <u>saw</u> Sue in town yesterday, but she <u>didn't see</u> me. She <u>was looking</u> the other way.

Explanation:

In English, the past continuous tense  describe actions that started in the past and they continued for sometime (a short period of time) after the action began. Examples are main verbs and having "-ing": were going, was going, were waiting, etc.

While the simple past tense describes a completed action which took place in a time before now. This is usually the basic form of past tense in English. Examples are met, stepped, managed, etc.

Answer:

I believe that youth sports have become too intense. Many kids today play extracurricular sports starting at a young age, exposing them to athletic injuries. Youth sports include soccer, basketball, lacrosse, and even wrestling.  Those sports are only examples of the sports available to kids today. Sports can cause minor and major injuries, and although it is called "youth" sports, the rules are still the same. Competitiveness can lead to kids accidentally injuring each other. The intenseness of youth sports can also burn out the passion and motivation for the sport, as it is too stressful for some kids. In fact, 7 out of 10 kids who play organized sports quit by age 13, according to the National Alliance for Youth Sports. Youth sports have become too intense as it may be too stressful for children and can cause injuries.

posledela

Answer:

Creon was his father and Antigone was engaged to him. He was in support of Antigone not his father

Explanation:

Haeman was engaged to Antigone. Antigone had lost her brothers and had gone ahead to bury. By this act she had gone against the laws of the king Creon. He decided to punish her by death.

Haemans conflict start first with fact that Creon is his father while Antigone is engaged to him. He wanted his father to leave Antigone to go but Creon did not want that to avoid appearing as a weak king. This brought a conflict seeing that haeman supported Antigone. Creon hated the fact he was not being respected by his son

In the line, "the oversize nose, the hollow look," the speaker is using the literary element of *
dem82 [27]

In the line "the oversize nose, the hollow look", the speaker is using metaphors.

Metaphor is a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two objects that seem unrelated in order to intensify or exaggerate the quality of one of them in order to make a stronger effect on the reader.

When the speaker characterizes nose as "oversize", he gives it a characteristic which is normally used to describe clothes. As for the expression "hollow look", one may use the word "hollow" to speak about surfaces which are uneven, with curves, hollowed-out, so to say.

Thus, with the usage of these two metaphors, the speaker creates a more dramatic effect.
