Using sensory details to vividly create an experience in language. Therefore, option (D) is correct.

What is synesthesia?

Synesthesia is a condition where a person experiences a blending or mixing of the senses, where stimulation of one sensory pathway leads to automatic and involuntary experiences in another sensory pathway.

For example, a person with synesthesia might perceive colors when hearing music or taste certain flavors when seeing certain colors. In literature, synesthesia can be used as a literary device to create a more vivid and sensory experience for the reader by describing a scene or object in terms of sensory experiences that would not typically be associated with it.

Drag each parenthesis to where it belongs in the following sentence. Only one opening and one closing parenthesis will be used.


Jeanette winner of the spelling bee always seemed to get A's on her report card.



Where do the parenthesis go? Again only one opening and one closing parentheses.

Answers

The revised sentence with parentheses is Jeanette (winner of the spelling bee) always seemed to get an A's on her report card.

The main purpose of using parenthesis is to add extra information in a sentence without grammatically including the section that was added. In other words, you can use parentheses to add a comment, opinion, or remark that is not essential in the sentence.

In this context, to know how to place some parentheses you need to identify which piece of information is just a comment or remark.

Based on this, you can conclude the information that should be enclosed in parentheses is winner of the spelling bee because this is just extra information about Jeanette.

"It is impossible that there will not be situations of conflict," said Angelo Bottini, Rome's archaeological superintendent. Neither the subway workers nor the archaeologists can decide whether a find should be removed, destroyed, or encased within the subway structure. According to Italy's strict conservation laws, that will be up to Bottini. Over the years, countless construction projects have been scrapped across Italy because ancient objects were unearthed there. Sometimes, developers deliberately failed to report a find and plowed through ancient treasures so that they could complete their projects. In Italy, and in Greece, too, workers and archaeologists have to preserve their history while accommodating the need for new subway lines.
The superintendent must be _________.

A discerning
B immune
C hospitable
D prestigiou

Answers

The superintendent must be discerning, as shown in option A.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The text shows how a conflict existed between companies that build and expand metro lines and archaeologists.That's because there are many artifacts buried in Italian soil, which can be damaged with the excavation to build the metro lines.These artifacts are important for the history of Italy and humanity, but the construction of mtero lines is important for social progress.To resolve this discussion, the superintendent needs to be judicious and discerning, to carefully analyze the situation to determine how to promote urban progress, without damaging the historical artifacts.

In this case, we can say that the correct word to fill in the blank is "discerning" which refers to someone who needs to thoroughly evaluate the data and facts to conclude.

Answers

Answer:

T

Only 1 letter

Explanation:

" T " is the silent letter in the word ' whistle '.

The letter “ t ” in these words is an acoustically “ explosive ” one, and to sound it after an “ s ” or an “ f ” both of which expend “considerable breath ” - " is especially difficult and obscure. " Consequently the “ t ” sound is assimilated into its surroundings and becomes silent.

2. She was an elegant and talented woman. A. good B. modest C. perfect D. accomplished. chose the word which is closest in meaning to the work "talented" in the sentence.
Please Can you help me choose the correct answer and explain?

Answers

Answer:

(1) He started his career in (the) education field

(2) She was an elegant and talented woman. (Accomplished)

Explanation:

In the first one the word In makes more sense because that's what he started his career in.

The second one they are saying she accomplished a lot .

(Talented means to have a natural skill at something)

In question 1, the sentence must be fitted with the right preposition for it to be correct.

A preposition is a word before a noun expressing a relationship with another word phrase and or clause. The correct option for Question 1 is C: In

He started his career in the education field

In question 2, the word which is closest in meaning or a synonym to "talented" is accomplished.

To be accomplished means to be very skilled, highly trained, or thoroughly educated in a certain ability or activity. Replacing "talented", the sentence now reads, She was an elegant and accomplished woman.

The author writes in paragraph 4 that he or she "spend[s]the winter dreaming of summer and the summer dreaming of winter." On the other hand, many people would say that they have specific favorite seasons or times of year. How do you feel? Do you have a favorite season, or do you always look forward to whatever is to come? Why?​

Answers

An example of a personal opinion answering the questions about having a favorite season or not is the following:

I would say I am similar to the author. I too spend one season looking forward to the next.

Of course, I appreciate each season. But I think it is just human nature to think the future is better than the present. I look forward to spring because of its beauty. But, once spring comes, I look forward to summer because of its warmth and fun, and so on.

This question asks for a personal opinion. In order to answer it, just think about how you usually feel each season.

Ask yourself if you are always anxious or excited about the next season rather than about the one in the present moment.

Once you realize how you usually feel, ask yourself why you feel that way.

When you have those answers, develop them into a short paragraph. Make it clear and straightforward.

When call me but love and I'll be new baptized has a meaning.  The fact that Romeo says, “Call me but love and I'll be new baptized. Henceforth, I never will be Romeo” shows that Romeo loves Juliet so much that he is very willing to drop his name just to be with her, his Families' mortal enemy.
