Answer:

The answer seems to be D.

Explanation:

I cannot explain why D is correct, but I can tell you why the others are wrong.

A: Choice A is a run on sentence. It doesn't have the word "by" between "team...tackling..." If it had the word "by" then it would've been up for consideration, however it would still be wrong since there is no comma to prevent this phrase from becoming a run-on sentence.

B: The beginning of the sentence starts with a dependent clause and ends in an independent clause. This is completely incorrect, and an easy choice to eliminate when you read this.

C: Again, this sentence is really jumbled up. it is a combination of a comma splice and it doesn't have the word "by" between the words I mentioned in the explanation for Choice A. I'd also say that this sentence starts with a sentence fragment. Either way, this choice is most likely wrong.

I'm sorry I could not give you an answer with 100% surity. But, I really am confident that the answer is D. Try it out, comment, and if it works? Rate it and drop a thanks :)

Read the poem below and answer the question that follows.
Iteru [2.4K]

Option 2. The false statement about this poem is The subject of the poem is deer and the flight risk that they pose.

<h3>What does the poem Simile signify?</h3>

This poem tells us of the pain and the betrayal that people pass through in the hands of the people they know.

From the first part of the poem, we can see a relationship that has gone apart. The speaker makes this known by relating the mood in the poem to the behavior of the deer.

They are no longer comfortable around themselves. Everyone is on the look out for the actions of the other person.

This is what tears them apart till they are like strangers who can no longer see eye to eye.

These parts of the poem shows that people have become extra cautious around the people they used to know:

  • with heads high
  • with ears forward
  • with eyes watchful
