Answer:

1. She played video games all day long without stopping. - c.  Immature Writing

2. Without ceasing, she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games all day long. - b.  Mature Writing

3. For what had the quality of time interminable, she toiled merrily at her digital amusement. - a.  Overuse of Thesaurus

Explanation:

Let's take a look at each sentence.

<u>Sentence number 1 uses a very simple vocabulary. In a sense, there is nothing special about it. No vivid descriptions, no word choice to help us picture the actions or sense the feelings</u>. Therefore, it is an example of immature writing.

<u>Sentence 2 is the opposite of 1. It uses more complex and descriptive words. Instead of simply saying "she played video games", the author makes it an action really worth telling with "she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games." It sounds more exciting, and we can see her, the character, in action.</u> Therefore, number 2 is an example of mature writing.

<u>Finally, sentence 3 goes to an extreme when it comes to the use of complex or unusual words. It seems as if the author wanted to sound smart, so he/she exaggerated in the use of the Thesaurus. That, as a matter of fact, makes it much more difficult to comprehend the message being conveyed.</u>

Answer:

He presents characteristics related to romanticism and realism.

Explanation:

Although these two literary movements are the opposite of each other, Peyton has the capacity to present characteristics that are related to the two movements. This is because although he has a strong emotional and social and introspective sense about himself, he also shows an externalized view on the environment around him, not fitting pre-established rules and with a strong will to bring about change.

Explain the value or importance of of using the international system of units when describing motion provide a example that supp
tatuchka [14]
<span>Firstly, since the United States is the only one that utilizes miles and feet in calculating speed, utilizing meters per second in calculating motion allows for information to be calculated by scientists in the rest of the world, as well as in the United States, thereby allowing scientists to draw from each other's research more easily. Furthermore, the unit of the meter comes from surveying the length light travels from within a vacuum, which is where the unit started being utilized. If we utilized feet per second, for instance, and another scientist from another country wanted to utilize that information, in order to properly calculate the speed in meters per second (the measurement they would utilize), they would have to first convert meters to feet -- an arduous and unnecessary process.</span>
