Which one of the following phrases contains vivid words that create imagery? A. Cotton-like clouds
B. Sang a solo
C. Traveled far
D. Twenty soldiers

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is A. Cotton-like clouds.

This is a rather descriptive choice that is used to bring the image of cotton to your mind and then use that image of cotton to create a new image of the clouds. Unlike the soldiers, it not only describes the looks, but also the feeling, the fluffiness of cotton.

Can someone help me please? Im so lost....Imagine that you are organizing evidence from this lesson to write about the similarities and differences of persuasive speeches and persuasive essays. List and explain one similarity and two differences. Your response should be at least three sentences long.

Answers

One similarity between persuasive speeches and essays is that they are both different forms used to sway someone to one side of an argument or another.
One difference between them is that an essay is used to write out the thoughts of an argument and include bullet points for important topics.
When you are using a speech, the inflection and emotion a person gives helps to deliver the argument.

One similarity between persuasive speeches and persuasive essays is that they both are "persuasive," which means that they both attempt to convince people of a certain position.

The first difference between the two is that speeches need to focus on the way the words sound while read aloud, and they usually require a particular intonation in order to be effective. Essays, as they are not always read aloud, do not need to focus on this as much.

The second difference is that speeches tend to be shorter and more emotional. This is because the speaker is addressing a large audience with a variety of attention spans. Essays, on the other hand, can be longer and more detailed.
