Answer:
Let's look at this sentence first since it's the most simple one:
"Does it stink like rotten meat?"
Explanation:
Step one (green):
First off, this is a simile. The "like" isn't the simile itself but just a key that is helpful for finding the simile.
Similes are things like "This song is like my favorite album's music." The WHOLE sentence is the simile.
Now, hopefully you've got that :)
Step two (yellow):
For this, we are looking at what is being compared. For this case "it" and "rotten meat" are being compared.
Again looking at "This song is like my favorite album's music." The "song" and "music" are being compared.
Let's look at another one in this assignment -
"Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?"
For this case, "it" and "raisin" are being compared.
Make sense?
Step three (blue):
Let's look at: "Does it stink like rotten meat?"
What is the action verb. Well by looking at this none of them are verbs EXCEPT stink. Some might say "he's stinking really bad today." That is an action VERB. Hope that helps :)
Answer:
A. Until we get to Brooklyn, we're not allowed to sleep.
Explanation:
Hello there!
If you meant to ask which sentence has a dependent clause, it's the first choice: <u>Until we get to Brooklyn</u>, we're not allowed to sleep. The dependent clause (until we get to brooklyn) added additional information to the main clause (we're not allowed to sleep), but it can't stand alone as a complete sentence.
B is the answer, hope this helps
The excerpt is as written below:
Let tyrants fear, I have always so behaved myself, that, under God, I have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good will of my subjects, and therefore I am come amongst you, as you see, at this time, not for my recreation and disport, but being resolved in the midst and heat of the battle, to live or die among you all, to lay down for my God, and for my kingdoms, and for my people, my honour, and my blood, even in the dust.
The excerpt signifies her emotional appeal to the troops as well as her persuading and statement to do all what it takes for the best of England.
