Answers

The answer is:

You should include all jobs and volunteer work by attaching another page.

When applying for a position, it is preferred to include the entire background you have, even volunteer experience. As a consequence, if you have had four jobs, it is proper to enclose another page in order to incorporate the four of them as well as volunteer work experience.

You should include all jobs and volunteer work by attaching another page. :)

Read the following excerpt from Mrs. Drainger's Veil by Howard Mumford Jones:Emily, of course, had changed. She met me at the door as she met you. She was a shell burned out by one fierce moment of fire.

Metaphor.
Euphemism.
Alliteration.
Flashback.

Answers

The correct answer is A. metaphor. A metaphor is a rhetorical figure of speech in which two things are compared without using words such as like or as. So here, Emily is being compared to 'a shell burned out by one fierce moment of fire' - she's not an actual shell, but rather compared to one through the use of a metaphor.
