Answer and Explanation:
Vivid words and phrases are used to express the same meaning of a common word or phrase with more impact and strength than using conventional words or phrases in a writing, an essay or a speech. We use them to express our ideas accurately and build more prominent influence in the public.
The answer, in this case, would be <em>'We’ll use them in next week’s staff meeting when I </em><em>announce</em><em> our exciting new corporate </em><em>merger</em><em>.'</em>
'Announce' is a synonym of 'introduce' or 'present,' while 'merger' would be the equivalent to 'union' or 'combination' of two parts. This is a case in which the speaker changes the way their message is conveyed by using vivid and rich words to enhance their discourse.

Still, the urge to resist war, especially when it comes at a cost so great that even the young have to pay it, still exists. This chapter is also relevant because it could help the young reassess or even redefine their definition of patriotism: am I a greater patriot if I go to fight in a war on behalf of my country or if I resist its unreasonable foreign and domestic policies?
