Why would an author use metaphors and similes?
Answer:
Most authors would use both sparingly within their writing. Choosing between a simile and a metaphor is deciding between clarity and power in your imagery. Similes give your reader an example and highlight one specific meaning. Metaphors allow different interpretations.
Explanation:
Sunderland College has historically had an outstanding football team. In its 50-year history, the team has had more winning seasons than any other team in the state. In the last 10 years, however, the team has been on an astoundingly rapid downward spiral-with eight losing seasons. Coach Wilson is unquestionably responsible for this losing streak. Since he was hired 10 years ago, the team has not won a single championship. If Coach Wilson is allowed to continue managing the team, there is little hope of a winning season in the near future.
Which sentence best explains the effect of the words astoundingly and unquestionably in the passage?
1. They help the reader visualize how quickly the team declined.
2. They stress the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
3. They help the reader determine how many games the team has lost.
4. They stress the amazing skill of the team before Coach Wilson took over.
Answer:
2. They stress the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
Explanation:
Although from the first sentence, the use of the adverb "outstandingly" helps the reader see how much the team has declined, its main objective in the passage is to show coach Wilson's degree of incompetence.
This was made clearer when another adverb "unquestionably" was linked to the "losing streak" mentioned earlier in the passage. In other words, starting 10 years ago, after a new coach was hired, Sunderland College astoundingly could not win a single championship, which unquestionably indicates the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
Identify the term that best describes the italicized word.
Nobody was really surprised when the votes were counted and Frank {became} class president.
A. transitive verb <---my answer
B. intransitive verb
C. auxiliary verb
D. linking verb
Answer:
D. Linking verb
Explanation:
Verbs are words that express actions, occurrences, and states of being.
Transitive verbs are verbs that require an object (the recipient of the action expressed by the verb). To become is not a transitive verb as it can't have an object. This is why it is an intransitive verb used as a linking verb. This is its main purpose, which is why option D is the one that best describes it.
Linking verbs are verbs that provide additional information about the subject by connecting it to a predicate adjective or predicate noun. Just like the verbs to be and to seem, to become is a true linking verb. In the given case, Frank is the subject of the second independent clause, and the words that describe him are class president. These words are a predicate noun (predicate nominative). Became connects these parts of the clause, which is why it's a linking verb.
Answer:
D. Linking Verb

The narrator most likely considers it strange that Rabbi Eliahou's words "never provoked anyone" because:
Answer:
Because it maintains the religious concepts of Judaism and encourages people not to lose faith in God.
Explanation:
This question is about the book "Night" where the narrator tells how his life was in the Nazi concentration camp, as a Jew, suffering the most diverse and inhuman abuse that can be imagined. In that same concentration camp there is a rabbi named Eliahou, who maintains religious concepts, urging everyone not to lose faith in God. The narrator does not know how the rabbi did not provoke anyone's anger because it was not possible to see God in a situation like the one they were going through, but people were comforted by the rabbi's words.

justify the statement component-based software engineering allows faster delivery
Answer:
The statement that component-based software engineering allows faster delivery is true.
This is because the components of the software are developed separately and in such a way that they are reusable. This is unlike the development of software as a single object, where the different components are not identifiable and cannot be developed separately.
Therefore, developing software using the component-based system, which also encourages division of labor, allows for speed in the delivery of the software because different specialized teams of software engineers can work on the separate components. No single team is overburdened.
Explanation:
Component-based software engineering is the design and development of computer-based systems with the help of reusable software components. The software components, which are separate software entities, offer specific services, with each component interfacing with the others. Software components include application programs, device drivers, and operating systems. Though they perform completely different jobs, all three work closely together to perform useful work.

Read the letter.
A Letter from the Atlantic
Dear Hannah,
I’ve never seen so much water before—everywhere I look, all I can see around me is placid blue. I’m grateful for the calm water today because it enables me to ascend to the top level of the SS Frisia and look at the Atlantic Ocean that stretches before us until it meets the horizon. I feel the warm air on my face and smell the salty sea air, but there’s a pit in my stomach when I think about how different life in New York will be.
When we first set sail on August 21st, I watched until Hamburg became a miniscule speck in the distance. When I squinted and couldn’t see the familiar buildings with their smoke spewing into the air anymore, Papa told me to look the other way. “You can’t look back,” he said as he walked me to the other side of the ship, his strong arm supporting my shoulders. “Home is there now.” He pointed to a place that was shimmering waves of blue, and I had a hard time visualizing a home that was 6,000 kilometers of water. He told me to close my eyes and picture the skyline that would soon materialize on the horizon. I couldn’t even fathom 6,000 kilometers of water, just like I couldn’t fathom that our new home wouldn’t be Hamburg anymore.
Most of the days at sea have been turbulent; tall waves reach up from the bottom of the sea and smack into the ship, sending us to the ground whenever we are standing. We are jettisoned from one side of the ship to the other like billiard balls; we emigrants glance off one another before moving in separate directions. It was entertaining at first, but now the ship’s rocking motion makes me feel sick, so I descend back to the bottom level where my family’s room is. Through the tiny oval porthole, I watch as the rough water laps the glass.
We play games and read and sleep to pass the time—sometimes there’s violin music that drifts into our room at night. My brother and I step out into the hallway in our socks and dance to the fast beat together, and it makes the boat’s rocking seem bearable. Most nights, we practice some English words with one another peppered in with the German that I will soon use less and less. “I am from Germany,” I practice over and over again, elongating my mouth around vowels that are pronounced differently in English than in German. I still think in German, dream in German, feel German words fly off my tongue with a comfort and speed that I worry I’ll never feel when I speak English. What will happen to me if the English all around me displaces the German of my youth?
There are people on this ship from everywhere: The Kowalski family in the room next to ours is from Poland, while the Ivanov family on the other side is from Russia. We practice basic English with one another: “Good morning. How are you?” Behind the closed doors of strangers’ rooms, I hear unfamiliar consonant sounds making up the lyrics to lilting songs. I can only imagine that these melodies are about feeling adrift; though we come from different places, nostalgia and homesickness know no borders or boundaries.
When I write these letters to you, I wonder where you are and what you are doing. Are you still walking along the canals of the Speicherstadt the way we used to after school? Do you still hear the bells of St. Michael’s Church resounding through the air? Does the bakery on the corner still serve our favorite Brötchen when it comes right out of the oven?
I miss you more than I can say in this letter. Say hello to everyone for me and tell them that my family is doing well. By the time I get on land to mail this letter, I will be at Ellis Island!
Love,
Liesl
Read this passage from Liesl's brother's diary.
I draw pictures of New York in my diary every night. Every time I think about New York, my legs jitter with excitement. Everything will be so new and different! I practice English with everyone I know, even with my family who still wants to speak to me in German. I'm starting to think in English and can't wait until English is all I speak. People walk around here like they are sad, but I couldn't be happier. I think I've already forgotten my life in Hamburg. Ellis Island, here we come!
In the fourth paragraph of "A Letter from the Atlantic," Liesl wonders what will happen "if the English all around [her] displaces the German of [her] youth."
How does Liesl's viewpoint conflict with that of her brother?
Liesl fears she will not speak English well, while her brother is confident in his English skills.
Liesl worries about losing ties to her home culture, while her brother looks forward to joining a new culture.
Liesl plans to remain proficient in German, while her brother plans to embrace English.
Liesl is certain she will be able to embrace two cultures, while her brother thinks he must choose one.
Answer:
Liesl worries about losing ties to her home culture, while her brother looks forward to joining a new culture.

What did "old Joe" buy from the women who looted the dead man? Click ALL that apply.
Bedcurtains, rings and all
Blankets from off the corpse
The shirt he was to be buried in
Answer:
"Old Joe" bought from the women who looted the dead man, the following items:
Bed Curtains, rings and all
Blankets from off the corpse
The shirt he was to be buried in
Explanation:
Charles Dickens in "A Christmas Carol" (1843) told the story of how Scrooge was emotionally transformed after noticing how "old Joe" used to buy stolen items from people. The worst items were those of a dead man brought by one of the "old Joe's" customers. Every conceivable item was stripped off the dead man, including his bed curtains, rings, blankets, and the only shirt he was to be buried in. The big lesson indicated that redemption was possible if love and compassion would be allowed to triumph.

inscription was a simpler form of Egyptian writing that had been created by the people"?
O The scholars had seen examples of it before written on rolls of papyrus, a writing material used by the Egyptians.
Since the scholars had already studied Egyptian languages, they recognized both the hieroglyphs and the demotic
version.
O The Greek inscription, which had already been deciphered, explained how to translate each of the Egyptian
passages.
Since only ancient Egyptians understood hieroglyphs, the scholars knew the second inscription had to be a simpler
version of the first.

Answer:
The Answer Is C Or Number 3
Explanation:
The statement that most adequately recounts the passage would be as follows:
A). Warren explains the students’ position, then describes how it has been previously handled by the courts.
Brown v. Board of EducationIn the given passage, the author explains the stand of the students in regard to the segregation and discrimination faced by them after being rejected to get admission in schools in which the white kids studied.
This is followed by the description of the way in which the courts also deny equal rights to them.
Later in the Delaware case, Supreme Court gave this equal authority to them to seek admission in those schools as per the 14th amendment.
Thus, option A is the correct answer.

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Brown v. Board of Education, written by Justice Warren.
Minors of the Negro race, through their legal representatives, seek the aid of the courts in obtaining admission to the public schools of their community on a non-segregated basis. In each instance, they had been denied admission to schools attended by white children under laws requiring or permitting segregation according to race. This segregation was alleged to deprive the plaintiffs of the equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment. In each of the cases other than the Delaware case, a three-judge federal district court denied relief to the plaintiffs on the so-called "separate but equal" doctrine announced by this Court in Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U. S. 537. Under that doctrine, equality of treatment is accorded when the races are provided substantially equal facilities, even though these facilities be separate. In the Delaware case, the Supreme Court of Delaware adhered to that doctrine, but ordered that the plaintiffs be admitted to the white schools because of their superiority to the Negro schools.
