In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or other significance, such as all rights reserved, economical with the truth, kick the bucket, and the like. It may be a euphemism, a saying or proverb, a fixed expression, a figure of speech, etc.
In linguistics, these are known as phrasemes.

Explanation:
kayla and jacob were rivals in the swimming contest.
is the word rivals a positive or negative connotation
leah was known for her mysterious plots
is the word mysterious a positive or negative connotation
Answer:
Negative.
Explanation:
For the first sentence, "Kayla and Jacob were rivals in the swimming contest." The word rivals means they are enemies and are competing against one another in the contest. So it has a negative connotation.
The second sentence, "Leah was known for her mysterious plots." By mentioning that she is "known for" her plots, it implies she is notoriously famous for her plots. Also, someone who "plots" is not normally described as a positive person, so the answer to both is negative.

Explanation:
(click) please tell me which sentence is the main idea, too broad and too narrow.
A paragraph is a group of sentences related to a particular topic, or central theme. Every paragraph has a key concept or main idea. The main idea is the most important piece of information the author wants you to know about the concept of that paragraph.
When authors write they have an idea in mind that they are trying to get across. This is especially true as authors compose paragraphs. An author organizes each paragraph's main idea and supporting details in support of the topic or central theme, and each paragraph supports the paragraph preceding it.
A writer will state his/her main idea explicitly somewhere in the paragraph. That main idea may be stated at the beginning of the paragraph, in the middle, or at the end. The sentence in which the main idea is stated is the topic sentence of that paragraph.
The topic sentence announces the general theme ( or portion of the theme) to be dealt with in the paragraph. Although the topic sentence may appear anywhere in the paragraph, it is usually first – and for a very good reason. This sentence provides the focus for the writer while writing and for the reader while reading. When you find the topic sentence, be sure to underline it so that it will stand out not only now, but also later when you review.
Identifying the Topic:
The first thing you must be able to do to get at the main idea of a paragraph is to identify the topic – the subject of the paragraph. Think of the paragraph as a wheel with the topic being the hub – the central core around which the whole wheel (or paragraph) spins. Your strategy for topic identification is simply to ask yourself the question, "What is this about?" Keep asking yourself that question as you read a paragraph, until the answer to your question becomes clear. Sometimes you can spot the topic by looking for a word or two that repeat. Usually you can state the topic in a few words.

D. serious
Which statement best describes a recurring theme in this passage?
Answer: C. Pride and effort go hand in hand.
Explanation:
Assuming this is based on the story, The Marfa Marlins by Jon Caswell, the above is the correct answer.
In the story it is shown that the coaches and the team members did not feel pride in being in the Marlins and this led to them putting in little to no effort with the coaches making jokes instead of coaching and the players showing up late for practice.
Paul Scoggins tried to change this and challenges the coach to a little competition which he wins with the penalty being that the coach would go bald. This action led the coach to feel pride in the team and try to put in the effort to win the district. This attitude influenced others into becoming proud as well and then putting in the effort.
