Answer:

1. My backpack weighs a ton. ------- hyperbole

2. The daisies danced in the rain ------- personification

3. Your eyes are like stars ------- simile

4. She is a monster ------- metaphor

Explanation:

1. <u>Hyperbole</u><u>:</u> Exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.

2. <u>Personi</u><u>fication</u><u>:</u> The attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.

3. <u>Simile</u><u>:</u> A figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g. as brave as a lion).

4. <u>Meta</u><u>phor</u><u>:</u> A metaphor is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true, but helps explain an idea or make a comparison. ... A metaphor states that one thing is another thing. It equates those two things not because they actually are the same, but for the sake of comparison or symbolism.

As you are visualizing yourself taking purposeful action, you want to be sure to include those actions which you may resist perf
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The given statement asserts a true claim as while visualizing a determined action, all the actions or thoughts which may influence or question the effective execution of that action must be avoided. <u>The chief aim would rather be</u> <u>concentrating on the actions that would ensure the implementation of the intended plan efficiently at every stage to produce the desired effect and attain the intended goal.</u> The testing of the plan or discussing it with the project team or editing it always comes after the visualization and formation of the idea and plans to check for the flaws that could be rectified.

Write the diary entry on your four memorable day of lock down​
svlad2 [7]

Explanation:

Dear Diary,

These past days were traumatic. Italy is in a total Lockdown because of the Coronavirus, so I’m forced to stay at home, against my will, until the 3rd of May. I miss going out with my friends, to parties or visiting my grandma and spending time with her. However, I’m going to do what I need to do if I want the Coronavirus out of here.

The country was wholeheartedly Locked down, with all the schools closed and people needing to maintain social distances from one another when they are walking or going to the supermarket. However, on a positive note people are starting to wash themselves more often and are generally being more hygienic.

Talking about school, my school decided to do video lessons for a month or so, until this all blows over, anyway. My day in quarantine starts at 7:45 when I wake up and prepare myself for the first lesson at 0815. When the first two lessons are done, at 1005, I have a ten minute break. Then the other two lessons begin and then finish at 1205 and have a lunch break of 30 minutes. Then we have the last two hours and we finish school at 1425, a total of 6 hours a day.

So, my day in quarantine is not that interesting, but I am getting through it.

Bye and see you soon.
