Answer:

I'll finish the rest later I gotta go to class now. Tell me if it's good or needs to be changed

Explanation:

Historical fiction and nonfiction have several notable similarities and differences. When comparing texts involving the same situation that are historical fiction and historical non-fiction, there are obvious dissimilarities. For example, in the text Benjamin Franklin Flies a Kite, the purpose of the story is to provide an accurate depiction of the actual events, while in A Shocking and Stormy Night, the purpose is to create an amusing and entertaining story. Another difference is the point of view in the stories. A Shocking and Stormy Night is written in first person, as a neighbour watching Benjamin as he does the experiment while text Benjamin Franklin Flies a Kite is written in third person omnipotent.

Answer:

Nonfiction and Historical fiction have notable similarities and differences. These texts involve the same situations yet when you analyze the text one is historical fiction while the other is historical non-fiction, there are obvious dissimilarities. For example, in the text, Benjamin Franklin Flies a Kite, the purpose of the story is to provide an accurate depiction of the actual events with the author using a more professional tone, while in A Shocking and Stormy Night, the purpose is to create an amusing and entertaining story. Another difference is the point of view in the stories. A Shocking and Stormy Night is written in first-person for proof in the text it says, “my window, a man stood in the rain.

It was strange to see him all alone on such a stormy night.

Who goes out in a thunderstorm and tries to fly a kite?” this shows that its written in the first-person point of view as a neighbor watches Benjamin as he does the experiment while text Benjamin Franklin Flies a Kite is written in third person about benjamins experiment not only that in a shocking and stormy night is written with a curious, confused, and somewhat frightened tone to set the mood and to get the reader invested in the story as well as express how the character feels. In his story, we also get more description on the setting rather than it being filled with facts from the real historical event like in Benjamin Franklin Flies a Kite.

b. The teacher said, "The earth is round" (into

c. She gave me the thing. I wanted the thing.
(into one sentence with relative clause)​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Changing the sentence to a passive voice. Passive voice depicts a sentence in a way that makes the subject takes action.

1. I have lost my purse => My purse has been lost by me.

2. Changing to indirect speech. Indirect speech is a grammatical style of reporting words spoken or written without directly quoting the speaker or writer.

The teacher said, "The earth is round" => The Teacher said that the earth is round.

3. Changing into one sentence with a relative clause

A relative clause is a clause that is being used to join two sentences together. Hence,

She gave me the thing. I wanted the thing => She gave me the thing that I wanted.

What kind of figurative language is “when I clasped their frosty finger tips, it seemed as if I were shaking hands with a northeast storm.”?

A. Metaphor

B. Onomatopoeia

C. Personification

D. Simile

Answers

Answer:

I think its C.

Explanation:

Because I know its not a simile, a similie commonly uses "like" or "as". A Metaphor is a  phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. So I don't think it's that and A Onomatopoeia is comic related using "was" a lot so I don't think it's that either. Therefore, ur left with C. Personification. Although I'm not sure. I hope this can help you!
