Answer:

C)This metaphor is significant because water is a symbol of youth and beauty, which the mirror reflects.

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of speech widely used in poems, because it is a figure of expressive content. Through the use of metaphor, the author can produce phrases of figurative meanings, through comparisons between two things that will bring a poetic and expressive meaning to a given phrase.

We can see an example of this, in the question above, where the author uses the metaphor to compare a mirror with a lake, in a very poetic way. This is because the mirror has the ability to reflect the image that is placed in front of you, when the woman places herself in front of the mirror she sees her young and beautiful image. Youth and beauty can be symbolized through the water of a lake that remains youthful for eternity and owner of a beauty reflected in its waters.

B. The man somewhat out of place.

D. The man in the blue pin-striped suit looked out of place because of his checked tie.

Answer:

C. The man in the blue pin-striped suit and checked tie looked somewhat out of place at the party.

Explanation:

In English language, a simple sentence can be defined as a sentence that comprises of a single independent clause, a predicate or verb and a subject. Also, the subject in a simple sentence is joined together by a conjunction such as "and" to reflect the action that is being performed or done by the verb in the sentence.

<em>An example of a simple sentence is;</em>

  • The man in the blue pin-striped suit and checked tie looked somewhat out of place at the party.

In the above example, the subject is "man" while "blue pin-striped suit and checked tie" is a modifier and they are all performing the same action.

<em>Additionally, all the other examples given are not a complete sentence or is a complex sentence. </em>

That is incorrect subject-verb agreement. 'Get' should not be singular, 'gets', instead of plural 'get' (that is the way with verbs).
