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.

Explanation:

what do you think is responsible for the energy being produced in a good and sustainable way

Answers

Sustainable Energy Utilities

Sustainable energy utilities (SEU) represent an attempt by multiple utilities within a geographic region to place all energy efficiency operations under one roof, are more akin to an energy efficiency business model than a financing strategy. However, there is overlap. In Delaware, for instance, Citibank issued a $57 million tax-exempt bond through the state’s AA+ rated municipality to fund energy efficiency projects. Delaware’s sustainable energy utility contracts with energy service companies that execute projects and which repay the SEU’s debt service to bond holders through shared savings agreements. By 2020, Delaware’s SEU anticipates that up to 93 percent of its revenue ($56.2 million) will be self-sustaining through shared savings agreements and REC sales. Today, REC sales and energy efficiency savings account for roughly half of the utility’s revenues – estimated to be between $15 to 20 million in 2011. The remaining half derives from a utility public benefit fund, which is seeded through a utility surcharge.

The principle difference between a public benefit fund and an SEU is that an SEU is attempting to accrue revenue through shared energy savings. Public benefit funds are essentially a mandated hand-out while SEUs represent a capitalistic approach to energy efficiency. Vermont is the only other state to have formalized an SEU.

Dear Jessie,

I hope this letter finds you well and that you're doing well in your new school. I'm so happy that you're attending my former school since I have already finished high school and in the same institution as you, I will give you some precious advice.

First of all, it is a very prestigious school they only admit the best students. There's a dressing code that you must respect, the school is very strict about it. Also, the classes are great, you'll learn a lot, but be aware that the teacher's exigence is high. They give the best of themselves and expect the same from their students. Lastly, there're plenty of clubs that you can join where you will gain experience and knowledge for the future, don't hesitate to join some of them.

As this is a prestigious school, you should study hard, be punctual and respectful towards your classmates and teachers. The students there're very friendly and always ready to help you, it is easy to make friends, just be yourself and enjoy your time there.

Best wishes!

In the first paragraph, we greet the person and introduce the topic of our letter. In the next sections, we proceed to give information about the school and advice. Lastly, we write a closing phrase and our signature.

from I heard an Angel singing

by William Blake


I heard an Angel singing

When the day was springing

Mercy Pity Peace

Is the worlds release


Thus he sung all day

Over the new mown hay

Till the sun went down

And haycocks looked brown


I heard a Devil curse

Over the heath & the furze

Mercy could be no more

If there was nobody poor


And pity no more could be

If all were as happy as we

At his curse the sun went down

And the heavens gave a frown


Down pourd the heavy rain

Over the new reapd grain

And Miseries increase

Is Mercy Pity Peace

9. You came here TO STUDY. *
10. It will be necessary TO INSPECT the property. *

Answers

Answer:

1. noun

2. adjective

3. adverb

4. adjective

5. noun

6. noun

7. adverb

8. adverb

9. adverb

10. adverb

Explanation:

Infinitive verbs can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs according to the context.

When functioning as nouns, infinitives will act like nouns do. They can be the subject, the object, a complement, or an appositive in the sentence, for instance. That is what happens in sentences 1, 5, and 6, in which the infinitive functions as a complement of a verb (1 and 5) and as the object of a preposition (6).

When the infinitive functions as an adjective, it will always modify a noun. That is what we have in sentences 2 and 4, in which the infinitives are modifying, respectively, the nouns "person" and "cycle".

Finally, infinitives functioning as adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. That's what we have in sentences 3, 7, 8, 9 and 10, in which the words modified are: "came", "turned", "happy", "came", and "necessary".

Given this explanation and after listening to Obama's speech, we can agree with the author because it is evident that Obama's speech was very well thought out and planned as a success point in his candidacy.

Emily Dickinson might react in this way to each scenario:

She would politely decline to have a public reading of her poems. She was a really private person, so public appearances would likely cause anxiety.

She would gladly engage in a quiet tea party with a dear friend, provided the tea party took place at home and it didn’t require her stepping outside.

She would feel uncomfortable with a newspaper article about her poetry and personal life. Her poems were meant for her friends. She wouldn’t want strangers to read about her life.

She would wholeheartedly agree to preserve a friend’s secret. Perhaps she would write about it in her diary.
