Answer:
1 - A (using the word 'and' with a comma)
2. D
Explanation:
1. Combining the two sentences using the conjuction 'and' makes more sense as it is providing additional information - since does not support the first sentences as much.

Explanation:
Figurative language, on the other hand, is the use of words to intentionally move away from their standard meaning. If I were to say, 'At the end of the play Caesar kicks the bucket,' I wouldn't mean that Caesar had actually kicked a pail. I would mean that he died, because to 'kick the bucket' is a type of figurative language that uses those words to mean something beyond the literal. Since poetry's life blood is figurative language (notice my own use of figurative language), poetry can be challenging for some readers. I'm going to show you some ways to make it easier.
When it comes to literary devices that fall into the category of figurative language, there are too many to list in this lesson. You have some common ones, like metaphor, and some rarer ones, like metonymy, but instead of examining each individual device, let's look at big categories. Some figurative language offers comparisons, some uses expressions, and other figurative language exaggerates or understates a writer's idea.
5.7 x 10^4 = 57 000m
There are 1000m in a kilometer. This means that by dividing 57 000m by 1000m, we can convert m to km.
57 000m/1000m = 57km
