Answer:

Explanation: Being on a boat during a hurricane may not sound so safe. Some would say you could have better luck in a car than a boat. Well, it is actually safer to be on a boat than a car for different reasons.

If you are on the water and know that there is a hurricane coming you would be better sheltered on your boat rather than finding somewhere on shore. When on a boat, there are windows, doors and hatches. Make sure you seal them up and make sure to shut off your boat's fuel lines. Once you do, and want to make sure that it is even more secured; take two anchors and tie the boat up and position it in the direction of the prevailing winds. If you make sure that all major factors of the boat like windows, doors, and hatches are all locked up and the boat it secured, then the boat will make it during the hurricane.  

 In addition, being in a car is not the smartest thing to do. It is risky if you do the following.

  • Don't go outside
  • Don't drive
  • Don't' go near exposed windows or glass.  

It is pretty obvious not to go outside for safety reasons. There are strong winds, heavy rain, and threat of lightning that make going outside a risky proposition. Don't drive. When the wind speed is high you car would not make it through, you may not either. Your car could become a projectile, or even damaged by the wind-blown debris during a hurricane.

In conclusion, being on a boat is much safer than a car for the reasons above and keep in mind all the things that can happen if you go out during a hurricane.

Which of the following sentences best summarizes the purpose of the excerpt? It tells the audience exactly what will happen at t
Alika [10]

If you mean the excerpt from the Act II of “Romeo and Juliet”, by Shakespeare, said by Chorus, I believe that the correct answer is second statement: It reveals the conflicting feelings Romeo has for Juliet and his family.

 

Based on the excerpt from Act II of “Romeo and Juliet” by William Shakespeare, the main purpose of this prologue, said by chorus, is to present Romeo’s conflicted feelings for Juliet and her family and to recap past events that happened in the play ( Romeo forgot about his previous love, Rosaline, by seeing Juliet). The chorus also creates an ominous mood that hints at the conflicts of the play (“Tempering extremities with extreme sweet”).

Analyze Baldwin's use of metaphor in this excerpt. How does this rhetorical device
lesya692 [45]

Explanation:

Baldwin talks of a "disease" which afflicts black Americans and can wreck race relations and creating a "rage in the blood" so he is using the "disease" as a metaphor for probably the rage that black Americans have for experiencing the inequalities of life in the US especially in the 1960's when the civil rights movement was so strong and segregation was so strongly practiced in the South still.
