Answer:

Hungry.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Simile has to do with comparison of two things using as or like.

I am as hungry as a bear. This is an example of a figurative language (figures of speech) known as simile.

Select the sentence using direct address.
QveST [7]

The sentence that uses direct address is "Where are you going, Fred?".

Direct address in grammar means that you are speaking directly to a person or group of people either calling them by name, as in example, "Where are you going Fred?", or using the second person pronoun "you". As in the example above, the name is often separated from the rest of the sentence or question by a comma. For example, "Maria, I need you to finish your homework now."

Read this excerpt from "Crossing the Bar" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Which two lines are examples of a dependent clause?
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

A) First, a clause is an incomplete sentence or a group of words that can't stand alone or one that does not have meaning standing by itself.

B) Furthermore, it must have a verb and a subject.

A verb, if you recall is an action word while a subject is "<em>the person or thing being referred to</em>".

Looking at the clauses in option B we can see that they both meet the above conditions.  

Let's see clause one - "<em>And may there be no </em><u><em>moaning</em></u><em> of t</em><u><em>he bar</em></u><em>, "</em>

It is clear that the verb here is "moaning" while the subject is "the Bar".

It's clear to see that these group of words meet the conditions given in A and B above because left by themselves, they make no meaning.

Let's take a look at the second clause:

"<em>When I put out to sea</em>,"

"I" here is the subject. It is a pronoun. A pronoun is simply a word that can be used instead of the noun. That is a noun can easily but inserted in the place of "I". Hence, we have "I" as the subject.

"<em>Put Out</em>"  here is a verb which means to relocate.

So "When I put out to sea"  also meets the conditions in A and B above.

Cheers!
