Hello!

Personification happens when you assign the qualities of a person to something that isn't human or that isn't even alive.  On the other hand, methapor is saying one thing when you really want to say other one: is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true.

Correct answers are:

It creates the impression that the world of nature is alive with interactions

It suggests to readers that the moon, unlike the grass, is not moving.

Hope this helps

1- The answer to question 1 is: " it creates the impression that the world of nature is alive with interactions." The grass does not dance , in fact the wind makes it move. In the poem, the grass dances to the tunes the wind plays. The interaction is here. The wind does not play music ; it makes some sound while the air moves, though. This dance between the grass and the wind is what creates the impression the world of nature is alive.

2- The answer to question 2 is: " It helps readers to better imagine the motionlessness of the moon in contrast to the movement of the dune grass." " But the moon above is a statue." The use of "but" shows the contrast between the movement of the grass and the motionlessness of the moon. Besides, a statue is a motionless object and silent.

Explanation:

Scientists had begun to debate privately whether or not Pluto is a plant, but this was the first time the concept was presented in a museum for all to see

The correct answer is "The newly conceived exhibits treated the solar system in a way that was without precedent for public institutions."

In literature, paraphrasing is the literary device used to express a statement in another while keeping the idea or the essence of what was trying to be said.

This excerpt is divided into 2 parts. The first one of these paraphrases is written in a more formal tone as it makes a statement by saying that newly conceived exhibits have brought new ideas to the community. On the other hand, the second phrase seems to be a form of gossip when it refers to the ever-increasing debate about Pluto.

The options for this question are:

A) Can be as effective as the standard form of English.

B) limit a speaker’s ability to stand up for herself.

C) make communication difficult between cultures.

D) are used more by older adults than by younger adults

Answer: A) Can be as effective as the standard form of English.

Explanation: In the given excerpt from "Mother Tongue" we can see the description of a situation where the speaker's mother is making herself clear when communicating with the boss. The speaker refers to her mother's speaking as "impeccable broken English" this expression helps to give the idea that nonstandard forms of English can be as effective as the standard form of English.

The inference suggested by this excerpt is that nonstandard forms of English can be as effective as the standard form of English. (first option)

Inference is the act or process of inferring, which means reaching a conclusion based on information you have. The information we get from the passage is that Mrs. Tan, although speaking with a "broken" English, could effectively yell at the stockbroker.

The inference we can make from that piece of information is that her nonstandard English is as effective as the standard form of English. Even if her grammar is wrong, she can still convey her ideas and feelings.

With that in mind, we can choose the first option as the correct answer for this question.

I do not agree with the statement "the school ‘s current policy should be changed to allow students to carry them".

Students should use cell phones for :

i. additional learning outside their school curriculum,

ii. developing skills via watching tutorials on online etc,

iii. developing research skills by finding relevant information.

However, hardly few students use cell phones appropriately.The major chunk of students use mobiles in wrong ways, like, watching bad content, playing online games, passing time on social media. All such things decrease the productivity of the students & fill their mind with lot of un-necessary content.

Hence, I strongly feel, cell-phones should be banned in school. Also, their usage should be restricted at homes too.

The question revolves around whether school policies should allow cell phones for student safety, considering both their benefits for communication and productivity, as well as potential drawbacks like decreased attention and increased stress.

The debate over whether schools should change their policies to allow students to carry cell phones for safety reasons involves understanding the various impacts of these devices. Cell phone ownership has become ubiquitous in the United States, aiding in communication and simplifying planning and productivity. However, it also comes with downsides, as referenced by Smith (2012), who notes that some individuals find it more difficult to disconnect from work, focus on the people around them, or concentrate on a single task due to their phones.

On one hand, the text acknowledges the positive impacts of cell phone usage, such as staying in touch and increasing productivity. On the other hand, it addresses the social and psychological drawbacks, like the challenge of maintaining undivided attention and managing stress related to constant connectivity.

The presence of cell phones in schools intersects with a variety of issues, including classroom management, as professors may need to address disruptions caused by phone use, emphasizing the need for balance between the benefits of accessibility and maintaining an environment conducive to learning.

The lengths and angles of similar triangles will depend on the types of triangles that they are. The three types of triangles are: equilateral, isosceles and scalene. An equilateral triangle, is also known as a regular polygon and has sides that are all equal in length. The angles of an equilateral triangle, also all measure 60 degrees. An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, and also two angles of the same measure. In an isosceles triangle these equal angles are opposite the two sides of equal length. A scalene triangle has sides that are all different lengths, and so also angles that are all of a different measure. Triangles can also be classified by the measure of their internal angles: a right triangle has one of its internal angles measuring 90 degrees, oblique triangles do not have a 90 degree internal angle, acute triangles have all internal angles measuring less than 90 degrees, and an obtuse triangle will have one internal angle measuring more than 90 degrees.

When you have similar triangles you can get:

1) The measure of their corresponding angles are congruent. it does mean that are equal.  it is very important to know when you are going to calculate a geometric figure.

2) The lengths of their corresponding sides. The measurements in millimeters of the sides opposite these angles  ( mentioned before) have a ratio or constant, of similarity that is  the quotient the sides opposite to equal angles is constant.

In "The Crucible", by Arthur Miller, the lie that Abigail tells about Tituba is option B) that Tituba comes to her during the night.

"The Crucible" is about witch-hunt in Salem and the trials that took place there in 1692. Miller compares these witch trials with the ones that took place in the U.S. People feared being accused of having communist ideas. Miller himself was prosecuted and convicted. In this play people cared about other people's business and being accused of witchcraft was the most dangerous sin. To avoid being hanged people accused others. Tituba, a slave, is unjustly accused by Abigail of going to her bed during the night.

Abigail's lie about Tituba is that she cooked a frog in the forest, which is one of the false accusations leading to the Salem witch trials hysteria.

The lie that Abigail tells about Tituba in the context of witchcraft and scares within the Salem Village is: C: that Tituba cooked a frog in the forest. This accusation is part of the fearmongering and hysteria that characterizes the witch trials. Abigail's claim contributes to the dangerous and superstitious environment of the time, where people like Tituba, an enslaved person and West Indian servant, are wrongfully accused of engaging in witchcraft.

The correct meaning of "credulous" is someone who is too willing to believe or trust others, often without proper evidence or critical thinking.

The word "credulous" is derived from the Latin root "cred," which means "believe." When someone is described as credulous, it means that they are easily willing to believe or trust others.

A credulous person tends to accept information or claims without questioning or critically evaluating them. This trait may make individuals more susceptible to being deceived or misled because they are too trusting and not skeptical enough. In essence, credulousness implies a tendency to believe things readily, sometimes without sufficient evidence or careful consideration.

What is the correct meaning of credulous. Remember, the word root cred means "believe."

The answer to which one is a hyperbole is letter D

Hyperbole, an exaggeration used for emphasis, is the target of the question. Without the excerpt from Angela's Ashes in question, it's impossible to specify which statement contains hyperbole.

The question asks which statement from the Angela’s Ashes excerpt features hyperbole. Hyperbole is a figure of speech that involves exaggeration for emphasis or dramatic effect. However, without the actual excerpt from Angela's Ashes, it is difficult to identify the hyperbolic statement. Generally, hyperbolic statements exaggerate reality beyond belief for dramatic effect. An example of hyperbole would be 'I'm so hungry I could eat a horse,' where the speaker doesn't literally mean they could consume an entire horse, but rather wants to emphasize their intense hunger.

Commas, dashes, and parentheses can all be used to include an example within a sentence. Commas must be correctly placed to avoid a choppy sentence. Dashes can be used when you want to emphasize the example, and parentheses are used when the example is an aside or extra information.

The best form of punctuation for including an example within a sentence largely depends on the context and the sentence's flow. However, all three options - commas, dashes, and parentheses - can potentially work. For commas, you can use them to add an example, but they must be appropriately placed to prevent the sentence from becoming choppy or unclear. For instance, the sentence 'I love fruits, for example, apples and oranges,' uses commas to introduce the example.

On the other hand, dashes, work best when you intend to put emphasis on the example. The sentence 'I love fruits - for example, apples and oranges -.' Here, the dashes highlight apples and oranges as examples of fruits I love.

Lastly, parentheses are used to insert an example in a sentence that is an aside or extra information. For instance, 'I love fruits (e.g., apples and oranges).' Here, the example is contained within the parentheses and considered extra information that does not interrupt the sentence's flow.

The core of the sun is so hot and there is so much pressure because  something called nuclear fusion takes place. hydrogen is changed to helium. Nuclear fusion creates heat and light

The Sun's high temperature is due to nuclear fusion occurring in its core, where hydrogen is converted into helium, releasing vast amounts of heat and light. This process has continued for about 4.5 billion years, enabling the Sun to radiate heat and sustain life on Earth.

Why is the Sun so Hot?

The Sun is incredibly hot due to its core processes where hydrogen nuclei are fused to form helium nuclei. This process is known as nuclear fusion and occurs at the Sun's core, which maintains an astounding temperature of approximately 15 million degrees Celsius. The energy from nuclear fusion generates an enormous amount of heat and light that travels through the sun's layers, reaching the photosphere, and finally Earth. The photosphere is the Sun's visible surface sitting at a cooler temperature of about 6000°C. This heat is constantly being produced for billions of years due to the Sun's immense size and the staggering amount of hydrogen available for fusion.

The conception that the sun could be a 'cloud-mantled ball of incandescent gases', as suggested historically, sheds light on the transition from early hypotheses to a modern understanding of the Sun's consistent energy output as a product of nuclear sciences. Moreover, the Sun's influence extends beyond warmth—its ultraviolet radiation can even cause sunburns from a distance of 93 million miles away. Using a point of reference that relates daily experiences like sunburn to the immense processes at work within the Sun helps to make the concept more tangible.
