The piece of cake was heaven.

A.personification

B.hyperbole

C.metaphor

D.simile

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hyperbole

Explanation:

It’s over exaggerating the piece of cake

Answer 2

Answer:

C. Metaphor

Explanation:

Let's go through each answer together.

A. Personification: Personification is when an inanimate object is given human quialities, or does human things. (Do you see the word person in personification?) For example, if I said my pencil was running away from me, it would be personification. A pencil can't actually run! But I'm sure you understood what I was describing anyways. Heaven is not a uhman quality, so it isn't personification.

B. Hyperbole: A hyperbole is when you exaggerate something. So, if I said that my the dog was 10 feet tall, I would be using a hyperbole. We both know the dog couldn't actually have been 10 feet tall. But, you understood that the dog must have been huge. We don't do this with the cake!

C. Metaphor: It's easy to get confused between metaphors and similes. A metaphor is when we say object A IS object B. For example, The sky was an endless pool. A sky can't actually be a pool, but we're saying that it is anyways. We want to make a point! This is what is happening in the question. A cake can't actually be heaven, but now we see that the cake must have been extremely good.

D. Simile: A simile is like the metaphor's sister. They're very similar, but similes are different in this specific way. ALL similes use either "like" or "as". For example, the house was like a fire. We're not saying the house is actually a fire, we're saying that it was LIKE a fire. They're both hot! To find similes, make sure to look for "like" or "as"- our example sentence has neither.

Hope this helps & feel free to ask for any clarification!

On October 30, 1938, Americans tuned in to an adapted broadcast of H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds. The broadcast, which announced a Martian invasion of New Jersey, quickly gained popularity due to reports of widespread panic as many Americans believed the country was being invaded by aliens. How would such a report be different if the aliens are the ones telling the story? For this journal entry, place yourself in the position of the Selenites and write a newscast reporting on the arrival of Mr. Bedford and Mr. Cavor on the moon. Include relevant details from the text in your newscast.

Answers

Answer:

Well, the point of view would be reversed. rather than to us "there invading!"

"They are monsters!" it would be "we are pioneers!" "We won!"

Explanation:

to the aliens, they'd appear as heroes. to us, they look like monsters.

so just write on those topics. from a standpoint similar to when Americans split from the British and colonized America. The natives were like us today, and we were like aliens. hope this cleared up the question.

Using at least three quotes from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet as evidence, describe the internal conflict felt by Juliet before she takes the Friar's vial of dubious poison. Ex.

"A quote from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet" - This quote shows the internal conflict of Juliet before she takes the poison because.... "A quote from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet" - This quote shows the internal conflict of Juliet before she takes the poison because.... Then in 3-4 sentences explain what you would have done in Juliet's situation. Would you have followed the Friar's plan? Would you have simply run away?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

"Juliet- Oh! Close the door soon! And after you have closed it, come and cry with me too. There is no hope, no medicine, no help." This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict because she is on the eve of her marriage to Paris, and she is already married to Romeo.

"Juliet - Oh! Tell me to throw myself off the battlements of that tower, but in marriage to the count do not speak; or invite me to walk on the roads of robbers, or to hide in nests of snakes; tie me up with bears roars; in a ram you shut me up at night, full of human bones, [...] "This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict, because it shows that she would rather suffer than marry Paris.

"Juliet - [...] What if, after being in the grave, I wake up, without Romeo arriving to save me? Oh horrible case! I will not be asphyxiated inside the grave, whose filthy mouth does not breathe healthy air, and, thus, suffocated dying without my Romeo coming? Or if I live, it will not be very plausible that that image of blackness and death, associated with the dread of the point itself - a sepulcher, a ram where there are hundreds of my ancestors; since a little bloody Tebaldo, decomposing in his white shroud [...] "This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict because she fears that Romeo will not vape it or be afraid to enter the tomb, leaving her suffocated dying , slowly.

In Juliet's place, I would not have followed through with the Friar's plan, nor would I have run away. Since this was a completely dead end situation, I would tell my family that I had already married Romeo, that the marriage was already finished and there was nothing more to be done.

why are books obsolete today in 4 sentences​

Answers

Answer:

See explanation!

Explanation:

Books are becoming obsolete due to the constant growth in technology. Children and adults alike are choosing to spend their time on the internet as opposed to reading books. This has caused potential authors to become discouraged from pursuing a career in writing, leading to a decrease in the amount of books being published over time. Overall, books are becoming a medium of the past and an increase in reading is unlikely as long as technology continues to develop and advance in the future.
