Answer:

King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba are used as an allusion.  This allusion describes how much the watch and hair comb mean to Jim and Della.  These 2 people are not rich and they feel as rich as the Queen of Sheba.  The items are just as much as they can give each other...nothing more...no money.  These items in reality could never be "worth" all of the queen's jewels.  But, to these two lovers, it is the best gift of all.  Giving of something that means something to you, has value, and is cherished.

Which two sentences correctly use parallel structure? Bernie not only forgot his one-year anniversary with Rachel but also he mi
Nuetrik [128]

The first two are parallel: "Bernie not only forgot <u>his one-year anniversary with Rachel</u> but also <u>he missed his father's birthday</u>." His and the name of a person, as well as their special day, are mentioned in each of the underlined phrases. Although they do not sound the same and may not have the same number of words, the construction of meaning is the same and the number of syllables is roughly the same. In, "Stan is a <u>voracious reader</u>, an <u>expressive writer</u>, and a <u>skillful painter</u>." all the underlined things are exactly two words, a strong adjective, followed by a -er hobby/occupational word. This would be more so the organization of ideas, because each clause has a slightly different meaning due to the different connotations of the adjectives used.

Hope that clears it up for you so that you can do it yourself next time!

True or false?Claim messages should include a blow-by-blow chronology of the details of the problem to adequately inform the rea
Sonja [21]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A claim letter (also called a claim message) is a type of a persuasive letter identifying a problem with a product or service, sent by a customer to an agency or business. It may also be referred to as a letter of complaint.

When writing a claim message, you should focus on the most important facts. No unnecessary details, like a blow-by-blow chronology, are needed. You should include the reason for writing, what went wrong and what you'd like to happen. An effective claim message is written in a formal style, as anger and emotion are not an effective method of persuasion.
