b. hear
c. birds
d. drone

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

d. drone

Explanation:

In connotative language, meaning goes beyond its denotation, since the word sends to assorted meanings. The meaning leads to several other associative ideas, virtual, suggested only, and it all depends on the context.

Positive connotation occurs when the meaning of the word is pleasant, leading to good feelings. It also depends a lot on the context in which it is inserted. The same word can have a positive connotation for some, but negative for others.

Since the positive connotation should bring a good feeling to the reader, we can conclude that the word "drone" should be replaced by a word that generates pleasant feelings. The word "drone" causes a feeling of something bad and annoying and should be replaced by a nicer word like "singing" and "chanting".

Answer 2

Answer: The option 'd' gives a monotonous meaning to the sentence. A better word would be 'singing' or 'chirping'

The plural of half is 'halves.'

Scientists generally agree that Earth is getting warmer due to what's called the greenhouse effect. A greenhouse used for plants stays warm because sunlight and heat coming through the glass roof are mostly trapped. The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's partly trapped by the glass. Something like that happens on Earth. The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space. 2. The main conclusion you can draw from this paragraph is that A. a greenhouse helps plants to grow faster. B. because of the greenhouse effect, plants on Earth should thrive. C. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass. D. the atmosphere keeps Earth warm

Answer:

C. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass.

Explanation:

This is most likely the main conclusion that we can draw from this paragraph. In this paragraph, the author explains the mechanisms that take place in a greenhouse. He explains that a greenhouse is designed to keep heat in due to its glass structure. The author wants the reader to understand that this is similar to what happens with global warming on Earth.

the answer must be C because that's what the paragraph mostly talks about

What advantage did the Allies have at the outbreak of World War I?A. better industrial resources
B. a military plan of action
C. the ability for better and faster communication
D. the ability to move men and supplies more freely

Answers

Answer:

A. better industrial resources

Explanation:

World War I was a milestone in the history of mankind. It was the first war of the twentieth century and the first conflict in a state of total war - one in which a nation mobilizes all its resources to make combat possible.

The Allies (a group formed by Russia, Great Britain, and France) were countries that had many industrial resources and had a stable economy and vast territory. The industrial power of these countries gave them a great advantage over the Entente Axis (formed by Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire and Italy). The Entente Axis, with the exception of Germany, was formed by countries with a weak and deficient industrial sector, in relation to the Allied Axis.

A. Better industrial resources
