Answer: Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor to s simply used to compare things that are quite different even though there's something common to them. This is the figurative language that is used in the excerpt above.

____ [38]

The political parties of the United States have always been formed around a particular issue or desire of people. For example, the Federalist party was formed due to the issue of the ratification of the Constitution, while the Free Soil party was formed as a way to oppose the expansion of slavery in the West. Each political party has represented different needs of the population. This is what colonists wanted from Great Britain prior to the Revolution. Before the war, Americans could not have different opinions in politics, or hope that their views were represented in the political arena.

                                                                        Umungasi,

                                                                        Aba.

                                                                       November 17, 2020.

Dear Charis,

      It is highly pleasing to be informed about your admission into Hope High School. This shows that you have truly distinguished yourself as a dedicated and hardworking student . It is well known that Hope High School base admission processes strictly on merit. I am very proud of you, dear sister!

    My years as a student at Hope High School were years of moral and academic formation. I learnt many skills and values that are very helpful to me now as an adult while I was studying at Hope High School.

 Truly, success comes with responsibilities. You have to take responsibility to be of good behavior while in school. No family member is with you in school to rebuke and correct you but you must listen to your teachers and guardians and obey them in everything. Do all duties assigned to you in the dormitory with joy knowing that you are being trained in school to become a responsible member of the society. Always remember the injunction of the Holy Bible; "Do not follow a multitude to do evil".

    Lastly, focus on your studies and make sure that you maintain good grades because your final GPA is a prerequisite for college admission. Never forget these pieces of advice throughout your high school studies. Remember to stay safe always and obey all corona virus safety protocols while in school.

                                                                                             Yours Sincerely,

                                                                                             Jude

Help Asp it’s in reading about conflict
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Person versus nature

Explanation:

"A fierce rain had swollen the middle fork of the Kentucky river."

"The brown water overflowed its muddy banks."

And the epilogue - "Not even a flooded river could stand between Mary Breckinridge and the hospital her patients needed."

The text provides evidence of her going up against the forces of nature rather than the other options.
