Explanation:
The ocean is the habitat of many types of fish. The ocean is a wide expanse of salt water. Which revision uses an appositive to combine these two sentences correctly?
This question is missing the answer options. I have found the complete question online. The options are the following:
a. The ocean, a wide expanse of salt water, is the habitat of many types of fish.
b. The ocean is the habitat of many types of fish because it is a wide expanse of salt water.
c. The ocean is a wide expanse of salt water, and many types of fish live there.
d. The ocean is the habitat of many types of fish, which enjoy the wide expanse of salt water.
Answer:
The revision which uses an appositive to combine these two sentences correctly is:
a. The ocean, a wide expanse of salt water, is the habitat of many types of fish.
Explanation:
An appositive can be a noun or a noun phrase. It is placed beside another noun the in the sentence with the purpose of renaming it, that is, of providing further information about it. Unless restrictive, appositives appear between commas in a sentence. Take a look at the example below:
- My pet, a cat, is always asleep.
The purpose of the appositive "a cat" is to rename the noun "pet".
With that in mind, we can easily identify the option which uses an appositive to combine the two sentences:
a. The ocean, a wide expanse of salt water, is the habitat of many types of fish.
The second sentence became the appositive between the commas, "a wide expanse of salt water." Its function is to provide further information about the noun "ocean".
What are 3 or more Similes in the story Raymond's run
Answer:
Three similes from the story "Raymond's Run" are:
1. "I'll high-prance down 34th Street like a rodeo pony to keep my knees strong . . ."
2. ". . . but people ain't grateful, so now she hangs out with the new girl Gretchen, and talks about me like a dog . . ."
3. "He looks around the park from Gretchen like a periscope in a submarine movie."
Explanation:
A simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things with the purpose of stating a similarity between them. In that sense, a simile would be similar to a metaphor. The difference is that simile relies on words such as "like" or "as" to make the comparison, while the metaphor does not. For example: My mind is like a bird. → Comparing one's mind to a bird helps convey the sense of freedom. One is free to imagine and think just like a bird is free to fly.
With that in mind, we can see that the three answers above use simile to compare the characters' actions to something that will help convey how those actions are performed. For example, the narrator compares the way her teacher looks around with the way a periscope moves when searching around.
"Raymond's Run" is a short story by Toni Cade Bambara about the narrator, Squeaky, and her brother Raymond, who is a child with special needs.

Lines 10–16: What alliterative words can you identify in these lines? How do these words affect the poem? Icarus flight
Answer:
flew, flutter, flight, forever
Explanation:
Alliteration is the figure of speech that allows that in the same line or stanza, a poem presents a succession of words with repetition of consonant sounds, that is, with repetition of consonants. In lines 10-16 of "Icarus Flight" we can see the presence of the alliteration in the words "flew," "flutter," "flight" and "forever," where we can see that the repetition of the consonant "f" reinforces the idea of flight and distance, which are two important elements in the meaning of the poem.
The poem presents the greed of Icarus when flying with his wax wings. This greed causes him to lose his discernment, get too close to the sun and melt his wings, causing a big drop in the sea, where he drowns.
it is necessary to remember that in a poem, a line represents a verse and a stanza represents the set of verses.

How does the author support the claim that ""gracious living had been a long time coming""?
Answer:
Hello. By reading the sentence presented in the question above, we can see that this sentence is a quote from the text "Birth of the Cool" written by Katy Kelly. In this case, the author supports this statement by presenting the various methods used to keep the food fresh.
Explanation:
"Birth of the Cool" is a text that shows how the creation of refrigerators made life easier for people, since it was very difficult to keep food refrigerated and preserved before refrigerators existed. The wait for the creation of refrigerators was very long and people had to develop several techniques and methods to keep food preserved, especially in the summer. These methods were what the author used to justify the phrase "gracious living had been a long time coming," showing that the easy life that refrigerators promote, was not something easy to achieve.
In hearts and hands what is the setting and explain why this contributes to the plot
Answer:
The story “Hearts and Hands” reminds us of the old lesson that appearances can be deceptive. In fact, this has been the main point of the story which begins when an elegant-looking young lady named Miss. Fairchild meets by chance her old pal Mr. Easton in a train compartment in the West. Soon after, she discovers that Easton’s right hand is handcuffed to the left hand of another man. At once, she fears that Mr. Easton might have been involved in some criminal activity and so is arrested. Sensing Mr. Easton’s embarrassment, the second man comes to his rescue by explaining that Mr. Easton is a marshal who is taking him to Leavenworth prison as he has got seven years of jail term for counterfeiting. At once, she recovers from the “bewildered horror” with “a deep breath and returning color”. This is the moment Miss Fairchild probably senses how appearances can be deceptive. Interestingly, she didn’t know that it was actually a part of a larger deception. Since then she seems to get going well with Mr. Easton. When Miss. Fairchild tries to get closer with Easton and says that she also likes the West.

HELP I WILL HOVE BRAINIEST
Which word, if it replaced the word "activity" in the sentence above, would CHANGE the meaning of the sentence?
Hello. You did not present the sentence to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
In order for the meaning of the sentence to be changed if the word "activity" is replaced, you should use words that are not synonymous with "activity". Synonyms are words with different spellings, but they keep the same meaning. In this case, it is only possible to modify the meaning of the sentence, replacing "activity" with antonyms such as "inactivity," "inactiveness" and "inaction." Antonyms are words that have completely different meanings.
