English

lapo4ka [179]2 years ago

Answer:

We use Conditional tenses to talk about hypothetic situations in the future, in the past, and to talk about events that would have happened.

a. If we were to be hit by an iceberg, we would die.

b If my cat were to eat a mouse, it would be a predator.

c If I were never to go in the sun, I would be extremely pale.

Explanation:

Conditional tenses communicate hypothetical situations in the past, theories about what might have happened, what happens concerning facts that are always true, and events with a low probability to occur in the future.

The sentences in this exercise are using conditionals to talk about situations in the present or future that probably will not happen.

We use:

the word if + the subject + were to,.... + subject + would + verb in the infinitive....

In formal writing, we can use the subjects he, she, and it with the auxiliary were instead of was and then the verb in the infinitive. For example, If he were to fail his test, he would be sad.

Which scenario is an example of irony?
Anettt [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option B. A tow truck sits stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire is irony.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Irony is a rhetorical device employed by writers or speakers to present a situation where contrary results of what is expected are obtained resulting in wry humour.

A tow truck is a vehicle provided with special equipment to pull damaged , illegally parked, or immovable vehicles in need of help to be either disposed of or dragged  to a place where they  can be repaired.  It is expected to be a savior carrying immobile vehicles to their destination which is most often a repair shop.

In the given situation, the tow truck is itself not able to ply on the road and is helplessly stranded on the roadside due to a flat tyre.  It is contrary to what is expected and is consequently amusing.  This is an example of irony.

Aleksandr [31]
Answer:
i think it's true, because of the fact that reading aloud depends on your voice and whether or not your voice can keep up with your reading speed, it also depends on if somebody else is reading with you, because you'd need to make your voice compatible with theirs
