Can someone please write me a poem
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Whose ar 15 is that? I think I know.

Its owner is quite happy though.

Full of joy like a vivid rainbow,

I watch her laugh. I cry hello.

She gives her ar 15 a shake,

And laughs until her belly aches.

The only other sound's the break,

Of distant waves and birds awake.

The ar 15 is deadly, expensive and deep,

But she has promises to keep,

After cake and lots of sleep.

Sweet dreams come to her cheap.

She rises from her gentle bed,

With thoughts of kittens in her head,

She eats her jam with lots of bread.

Ready for the day ahead.

Which type of context clue will help define each underlined word? definition clue synonym clue antonym clue Dion noticed that th
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Even though no words were underlined in the question, I believe the following context clues were used

Explanation:

Context clues help shed light or explain underlined or circles words or phrases within a context - either a sentence, phrase, paragraph or even an entire book.

There are seven types of contexts clues including Synonyms clues, Antonym clues, Definition clues, Example clues etc

Synonyms clues give similar words or phrases to the words or phrases underlined.

Antonym clues give words or phrases that are opposite in meaning or contrast the underlined phrase.

From the question,

1) Dion noticed that the campsite location was obscure (remote). Remote is a synonym clue that is similar in meaning to the word 'obscure'. It helps to explain that the location of the campsite is far off.

2) Pia couldn't wait to visit the menagerie—the place where the animals were kept. Unlike her last dog, who didn't know the meaning of loyalty, Violet's new dog is a staunch friend.

The phrase 'Violet's new dog is a staunch friend' is an antonym clue that contrasts the behaviour of Pia's last dog

Answer: Brandon’s parents sent him to the public school.

In this excerpt, we are presented with a problem. The problem is that Brandon's parents do not know which school to send him to. On the one hand, the public school is near their house. However, on the other hand, the private school offered him a scholarship. The solution, however, was that Brandon's parents decided to send him to the public school. This was because they noticed that Brandon had already made some friends in the neighbourhood.
