Answer:

The two quotes that are examples of imagery are:

“I was besmeared with muck and mud, and the green slime that had collected on the surface of the dead water”

“My clothes were in tatters, my hands, face, and body covered with scratches”

Explanation:

<u>Imagery is a literary device that appeals to the five senses. Through imagery, authors can involve readers with their descriptions, having them feel as if they can see, touch, or smell something. Through word choice, authors can create vivid pictures to help readers visualize a scene, as if they were characters in the story.</u>

Among the options given, there are two that use imagery:

“My clothes were in tatters, my hands, face, and body covered with scratches” and

“I was besmeared with muck and mud, and the green slime that had collected on the surface of the dead water”

<u>The word choice in the quotes above help us visualize what the narrator looks like - how dirty and injured he looks, for instance.</u> The other two options, on the other hand, do not use words that convey any description that appeals to the five senses.

Now use what you have learned about claims to make your own claim about why you think sports figures and celebrities make negati
AleksandrR [38]

claims= your belief on something with evidence to support it

I think sport figures and celebrities make negative role models. More often than not, a celebrity has or is doing drugs, using alcohol, has been arrested, wearing revealing clothing, etc. A celebrity many people looked up to and aspired to be may mimic what this celebrity does. If this celebrity decides to do go as far as doing drugs or become an alcoholic, then the people looking up to this celebrity may follow in their footsteps and attempt to be like them. This would make celebrities negative role models.

I couldn't come up with anything for how sports figures are bad role models other than they might overwork themselves, so people may try to perform as  good as the sport figure. hope this helps
