Any writer can tell a reader what is happening in a story. Good writers show readers what is happening by creating pictures in readers’ minds. They do this by using sensory language to create vivid details. These details allow readers to connect to images, actions, and scenes through their senses. Sensory language and vivid details improve the style and diction of writing. Examples of sensory language are

words related to sight: glittering, bright, blurred, shadowy, grimy, hazy
words related to sound: thump, cackle, roar, screech, howl, creak, buzz
words related to touch: scratchy, hot, greasy, icy, fuzzy, velvety
words related to taste: creamy, rotten, salty, sweet, refreshing, zesty
words related to smell: musty, acrid, fragrant, old, perfumed, rancid
Prompt:

Rewrite and then post the following paragraph to include sensory language. Be sure to choose words that create vivid details that create connections to readers’ senses.

The alarm went off, and I got out of bed. I stretched and walked to the window to open the blinds. Light entered the room. I could smell breakfast cooking, so I walked to the kitchen. My mom was standing at the stove, making bacon. I sat down at the table and got ready to eat.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The instructions in the question already offer an explanation of what sensory language is. All we need to do now is rewrite the paragraph. First, let's underline every detail that can be turned into sensory language:

The alarm went off, and I got out of bed. I stretched and walked to the window to open the blinds. Light entered the room. I could smell breakfast cooking, so I walked to the kitchen. My mom was standing at the stove, making bacon. I sat down at the table and got ready to eat.

Now, let's use words that appeal to the senses to rewrite the actions above:

I woke up to the earsplitting shriek of the alarm clock and got out of bed. My stiff muscles and joints seemed to thank me as I pushed and pulled, stretching them loose. I walked to the window, opened the blinds, and let the glowing sun greet me. As I took a deep breath, I could smell the fragrant breakfast, so I soared to the kitchen. My mom was standing at the stove, bacon sizzling in the frying pan before her. I sat down at the table and got ready to eat.

Passive voice They don't sell homeopathic medicine in supermarkets

Answers

Answer:

Homeopathic medicine isn't sold in supermarkets.

Explanation:

The passive voice is that form of writing and grammatical organization of a sentence, in which the subject of the sentence is not the one who guides the order of the writing of the text, but it is the object of the sentence who does it, reversing the usual order of sentences. Thus, the passive voice focuses on the object instead of the subject, giving a grammatical predominance to that on which the verb falls, instead of the person who performs the action of the verb.

Explanation:

Its to messy for you to solve

is this story fiction, nonfiction, drama, or poetry

Why is it so quiet? Why can't I move? And why is it so dark? I try to recall where I am, but I cannot remember. Blackness surrounds me.
I hear a familiar voice that makes my heart flutter like a thousand butterflies. It is the voice of my friend, Maddy. She visits her grandparents here on the Gulf of Mexico every summer. She usually brings me crumbs, but today, I cannot smell anything except the sour smell of oil.
Her voice sounds worried, different from the usual cheerful greeting that she calls me with every day at dusk. I try to turn towards her, but I can't move very well. My feet feel mired as if in quicksand.
I hear her come closer. Her words help me understand that something has happened to my home.
"Oh, grandma! What is all this? They are all covered in it! It's black. Ugh! The smell is so strong I can't stand it." Maddy's tears stream down her face, mingling with mine. I hear her crying, but all is dark, like a moonless night. Where is the smiling sun? I try to stretch out to feel the warmth, but my wings do not respond.
Dazed, I call out to my friends hoping they will find me in the blackness, but everything is so still. I hear nothing, except for Maddy's desperation. Her sobs, uncontrollable.
"Go get some towels, Maddy. Run!" Her grandma tells her, a quiet urgency in her voice.
"Hey little one," grandma coos as she bends over me. I can feel her breath on my head. "We've got you and you are going to do all we can for you." All they can? I hear Maddy's hurried footsteps and feel the towel's softness enveloping me as she picks me up in her arms. She is gentle, her sobs quieting as she takes me to her home, seemingly miles and miles from my nest along the shoreline.
I hear the phone ring. I hear the news on the television.
"Spill...oil...negligence...BP...blame..."
"What are we going to do?"
I hear the door banging and neighbors' voices, shrill and urgent, coming in and out of the house. All of the sounds tell me that the emergency is intensifying.
I still cannot see anything. Maybe it is good that I cannot see. If I could, I might see my home, blackened with the oil of a mishandled well deep in the ocean. I would see my friends, covered in slick crudeness. I would desperately observe the choking, billowing smoke, polluting the Gulf sky, my home. I would see my family unable to fly through the air, unable to dive into the ocean for the delicious meals we used to find there. I fear our fish are no more; they are stuck in the depths of the black, watery grave.
What are we going to do? What are we going to do? I hope the humans will do something to bring light to all of the blackness.
I hear Maddy, making sweet, soothing sounds as she begins to clean my feathers gently. I hear that sound often. It's the sound humans make on the beach when their babies are frightened.

2 Question 3(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) Read this passage: Quirky is a company that helps people invent new products. Quirky gives inventors a design team that helps them bring their thoughts to life. The staff of Quirky (75 people and growing) listens to proposals for new projects and votes on which products the company will make. One famous example of a Quirky product was invented by a salesman who lived in Baltimore. He noticed that people who lived in apartment buildings kept large air conditioners hanging out of their windows. Those air conditioners would run all day. He invented a slim air conditioner that can be turned on and off using a phone app. His air conditioners use less energy than old-fashioned air conditioners. Without the team at Quirky, he never would have been able to make his idea a reality.

What can we infer about the salesman from Baltimore?

He used to work as an air conditioning repairman.

He was nervous to present his product at Quirky.

He doesn't like seeing air conditioners in windows.

Kidney

Explanation:

Simple comparison, kidney bean, kidneys look like beans

The organ that the arrow is pointing to in this image is a structure of kidney in the excretory system, hence option C is correct.

What is the function of kidney?

The primary role of the kidney is to purify blood by removing waste materials. We eat food that has protein. The body needs protein to grow and heal itself. Yet, as the body uses protein, waste products are produced.

Two bean-shaped organs, the kidneys, are each roughly the size of a fist. One is on either side of your spine, directly below the rib cage.

Every minute, healthy kidneys filter about half a cup of blood, eliminating wastes and surplus water to create urine.

Therefore, the image shows structure of kidney in the excretory system, hence option C is correct.
