2. The coach descended upon the losing team and sank his claws into the game

As tall as the Washington Monument, she was. Therefore, the appropriate response is option (A).

Exaggeration used as a figure of speech or rhetorical tool, or hyperbole, is exaggeration. It's also known as auxesis in rhetoric, which means "growth" in Greek. It accentuates, elicits powerful emotions, and leaves a lasting impression in poetry and oratory. As a figure of speech, it's typically not meant to be taken literally.

It is common practice to use hyperbole for emphasis or impact. The phrase "the bag weighed a ton" merely signifies that the bag was extremely heavy in everyday conversation. For serious, sarcastic, or humorous examples, the rhetorical device may be used. Recognizing exaggeration and how it is used in a certain situation can make the speaker's point easier to comprehend.

Hence, option (A) is accurate.

Skateboarding became popular in the 1950s. It was originally called sidewalk surfing. This is because it is an
offshoot of surfing. Surfing is the ancient sport of riding a wooden board through ocean waves. Surfing is still
popular today. Like surfing, skateboarding has become its own sport. The most skilled skaters are paid by shoe,
clothing, and even soda companies. They are given money to wear certain products.

Hey, do you guys like my speech!??? I wrote it and if you have any pointers on how to make is better :)???
Classical Music is the type of music that is very serious or conventional, which follows long-established principles different from jazz. I believe it is very important for almost everyone, as it helps people feel relaxed and rejuvenate their spirits. It helps in experiencing a huge gradual range of emotions, such as despair, love, happiness, and even sadness. This specific type of music is important as it serves various purposes; it helps people in getting away from all the confusion in life and focus on life’s goals, such as a job opportunity, or just an accomplishment.
This fascinating type of music helps put me into a zone to just completely focus on whatever subject I need to. I believe Classical Music is something most people find beautiful, and I think others may not even understand. My thoughts to do this speech immediately went to classical music and how I find it not just beautiful, but emotionally sole-shatteringly sometimes. Classical music, I believe, has the power of moving someone emotionally without speaking a word, it isn't just noises thrown together, it's something that a person has learned to create so carefully. Each note is put together to make the perfect piece. It can feature one instrument or multiple and can be replicated so that it's never lost.
There is a world-renowned composer, which I am sure all of you know. His name is Ludwig van Beethoven. Beethoven was a German composer and pianist, born December 1770, Bonn, Germany. Beethoven was a German composer and pianist. Beethoven remains one of the most admired composers in the history of Western classical music. His works span the transition from the classical period to the romantic era in classical music. They are famous for their great strength to empower you in his pieces of music. My most personal favorite is Beethoven Moonlight Sonata - Piano Sonata No. 14, this piece was designed to let you focus. Beethoven music you can listen to for hours, they are absolutely fascinating to hear and almost feel how wonderful it is.

Classical music expresses the deepest thoughts of our civilization. Composers paint an image of the society and times within which they lived. you'll be able to expertise the greatness and achievements of another generation through its music. If we tend to don’t die this unbelievable thread of artistic living history that binds the United States of America – one generation to the opposite – then we diminish all of the humanity that came before us and definitely leave an open hole for the future. we tend to bear in mind however necessary the musical genre is in a very world that perpetually appears as it stands on the precipice of a scarily dark chasm. Music continues to bridge the nice divide between cultures and countries. It will bring hope for peace within the darkest of times.

Classical music has its own noble history just like the remainder of the music types. each culture and tradition has its own type of classical music that competes with the help of various instruments for instance Indians, Chinese, Arabs, and Europeans had their own traditions for classical music. The genre may be a broad, somewhat inexact term, pertaining to music produced, or frozen within the traditions of art, religion, and concert music. Music is classical if it includes a number of the subsequent features: a learned tradition, support from the church or government, or larger cultural capital. genre is additionally delineated as complex, lasting, transcendent, and abstract.

Read this excerpt from "One Flu over the Cuckoo's Nest."

Scientists debated creating a killer virus to study in the lab. In 2005, the Centers for Disease Control proposed deliberately combining a deadly bird flu virus with a very contagious human flu virus to understand whether and how it might cause a worldwide outbreak, or "pandemic.” Scientists said the lab experiments would help them understand what might already be happening naturally. . . .

But other people thought such research was a terrible idea. What if these viruses escaped the lab by mistake? What if a government or terrorist organization wanted to use the viruses against their enemies?

In 2013, two research groups outside the United States went ahead and conducted their own experiments. One group, led by Ron Fouchier of Erasmus University in the Netherlands, showed that the highly lethal mixed up flu virus could infect and kill ferrets. A few months later, a Chinese group led by Chen Hualan at China’s Harbin Veterinary Research Institute showed the recombined virus could infect and kill guinea pigs. Both groups ran their studies before a worldwide ban on this type of research was put into place in 2012.

One of the main ideas presented in this passage is the controversy over whether or not flu research is safe. What do these paragraphs suggest about the safety of such research?

A. A worldwide ban on dangerous flu research was put into place in 2012, so the threat of people using flu viruses to attack others no longer exists.
B. Since all of the information that could be learned from such research has already been discovered, scientists no longer need to create new flu viruses, and therefore the controversy is over.
C. Although none of the deadly flu viruses made for research have been used by dangerous people, since that possibility still exists, the ban on the research might be important.
D. The research has already resulted in the deaths of animals, so people who once thought creating and researching new flu viruses was important are no longer supporting it.

Read the following short passage.
So they parted; and the young man pursued his way until, being about to turn the corner by the meeting-house, he looked back and
saw the head of Faith still peeping after him with a melancholy air, in spite of her pink ribbons.
"Poor little Faith!" thought he, for his heart smote him. "What a wretch am I to leave her on such an errand! She talks of dreams, too.
I thought as she spoke there was trouble in her face, as if a dream had warned her what work is to be done to-night. But no, no;/t
would kill her to think it. Well, she's a blessed angel on earth; and after this one night I'll cling to or skirts and follow her to heaven."
