Answer:

Sarah worked like Cinderella until all of her chores were done.

Explanation:

An allusion is a figure of speech that represents a vague reference to a person, place, thing, or event from an unrelated context. Usually, allusions aren't explained by the author. It's up to the readers to figure out their meaning.

The sentence that contains an allusion is the second one. Sarah, who is working hard on her chores, is compared to Cinderella. The reader should know the story of Cinderella to fully understand this sentence.

The rest of the sentences don't contain an allusion. The first one tells about events from the fairytale <em>Cinderella,</em> the third one gives us a fact about the fairytale, and the fourth one simply mentions the movie.

This is why the second option is the correct one.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

1. Camps were not originally from Jews.  They were for political prisoners who opposed Hitler.

2.  The greeting given to the Jews when they entered the camp was a lie since they were probably going to die.  

3. It is documented that Jews often took time for humor to help with the suffering.  They told jokes.

4.  The Aryans that worked for Hitler, were often Jewish....

5. It is sad that some Jews tried to save their children before they could be captured and would give them to another family.  IF their family survived the camp, some of them wanted to stay with their "new family."

6.  This is a horrible one - Some of the Jews were given candy by the soldiers.  The candy killed them.

torisob [31]

Answer:

D. Slow and steady wins in the end .

Explanation:

The paradox in the passage is best stated by option D. Instead of starting fast, James began the race slowly and kept going at the same pace until the end, when everyone became exhausted and began slowing down. That's when he sped up and ended up winning the race.  

<em>Slow and steady wins the race </em>is also the morale of a well-known story <em>The Tortoise and the Hare</em>, where the tortoise beats the hare in the race.

Identify the predicate' in the sentences
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: painted her bedroom

Explanation:

If we are trying to identify the predicate in the sentence, first, we must know the exact definition of it. A predicate is considering part of the sentence or clause in which he is telling the readers what the subject is doing.

In this sentence, the predicate is ''Painted her bedroom'' because it is telling us what the subject ''She' is doing.

  • Predicate and subject are considered as two main parts of a clause or sentence in English grammar.
