If I am understanding correctly I believe the sentence that the hyperbole is “It had stopped beating,”

The error in the sentence is the verb comes, It should be come because the subject is items, which is plural, so the verb needs to be plural. The sentence that makes this correction is B.

Read this excerpt from a speech given at a city council meeting:

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

"A. Change "razor thin" to "extremely tiny." B. Change "voted out of office" to "removed from their current positions." C. Change "don't have the money" to "do not make enough profit." D. Change "definitely not the way to go" to "a completely worthless idea."

Answer:

C. Change "don't have the money" to "do not make enough profit."

Explanation:

The expression "has no money" does not provide accurate and consistent information with a formal language text, when that text refers to the economic conditions of an establishment. "Not having money" is not an economic term that fits the context of the text, which should only use economic terms to maintain the formal tone of the writing.

In this case, the best way to replace this expression and provide a more formal tone would be through the expression "do not make enough profit", which justifies the statement given by the author and maintains the formal tone of the writing.

You had a quarrell with a very good friend of yours sometimes ago and since then both of you have not been on speaking terms. Wr

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Dear friend,

It is not easy writing this letter. We haven’t spoken in a while. I don’t know what has happened in your life, and you don’t know what has happened in mine, so it’s hard starting the letter from such an uncertain point. Yet, I have a strong desire to write this to you because I really miss you.

I’ve thought about reaching you before, but my pride has always stopped me. There could always be an excuse. The truth is, I just didn’t want to be the one to reach out first. But I found the notes we passed years ago, and it brought back all the happy memories and nostalgia. That is when I decided I will stop waiting and do what I wished to do – write to you.

Despite our argument, you have always been my great friend, someone who’s been by my side and with whom I shared many great moments. It’s a silly thing that one quarrel will tear down the years of our friendship. With this letter, I wish that we can both make amends and reconcile, because of the long life our friendship had.

I am truly sorry because of our fight and I deeply regret all the things I have said. In anger, we sometimes say things we don’t really mean and regret them later, and that was exactly the case. But I understand how my words might have hurt you and it hurts me if I caused you that distress. I hope you will accept my deepest apologies for all that has happened and forgive me. I can promise you that I have changed over this time we haven’t spoken and that I am not as hotheaded as I was then. I think more before I speak and I reason my arguments calmly. There were many things to learn from our sad parting, and it took me some time to understand them but I did. In return, I offer you my forgiveness and strong desire to reconcile. I miss you as my friend and I wish to have you again in my life.

When you read this, please remember all our laughs and joined mischiefs, our happy walks, and talks, all secrets we shared. Remember all the happy times and good moments we shared, and just imagine if we can share them again. I certainly hope you have a great wish for that because I do.

Please write back to me. Even if you are still angry, we can talk and fix it all. Please give our friendship a chance. You are an amazing person and a great friend, and I wish to have you back in my life so much.
