Answer and Explanation:
In "The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World," a short story by Gabriel García Márquez, the townspeople react to the body with acceptance. He is first found by children when he washes up on their shore. Instead of being afraid of him, the children play with the body. When the adults of the village finally realize he is there, they take him into one of their homes, and the women take care of him. They will do for him what do for every body that washes up on their shore: they will mourn him with a brief wake, and then bury him in the ocean.
"They had been playing with him all afternoon, burying him in the sand and digging him up again . . .
While the men went to find out if anyone was missing in the neighboring villages, the women stayed behind to care for the drowned man. They took the mud off with grass swabs, they removed the underwater stones entangled in his hair, and they scraped the crust off with tools used for scaling fish."

But everything else was motionless, dry as a biscuit, on the brink of burning, hoarding final reservoirs of sap, trying to hold out till the rain returned...
What type of figurative language is found in the above passage?
Answer:
It looks like a simile is used, "dry as a biscuit,". It's comparing how dry something is to how dry a biscuit is.
I'm not sure about the rest, because I don't have context clues, but it looks like that's the only figurative language.

Do babies usually have a lot of wisdom?
Not really sure babies have a lot of wisdom since there brain its still developing. Since babies do not have life lessons and experiences since they are begging to live.
Explanation:
Can experiences make you more wise?
Wisdom is perhaps the most important quality that we can gain in our lives. Wisdom only comes from those life lessons and experiences that stretch our minds and grow our understanding. Some wisdom-bringing experiences are delightful, and some are painful, but with wisdom as a by product, they are all worthwhile.

Rewrite the sentences adding adjectives for each noun. 1. The boy walked into his house. 2. The wolf ran into the forest. 3. The magician fooled the people. 4. The girl visited a friend. 5. The man begged for food.
Answer:
1. The eager boy walked into his new house.
2. The ferocious wolf ran into the dark forest.
3. The sly magician fooled the naive people.
4. The exuberant girl visited a good friend.
5. The homeless man begged for some food.
Explanation:
A noun is a word that names a thing, a place, or a person. In the sentences above, the nouns are: boy, house, wolf, forest, magician, people, girl, friend, man, and food. They are all common nouns, meaning that they do not refer to something or someone in particular.
An adjective is a word that modifies a noun by giving it a quality. For instance, when we say "magician", we only get to know about the profession of this person. But, when we add the adjective "sly", we know something more about him. We know he is deceitful, that is, someone who cannot be trusted.
Answer:
1. The eager boy walked into his new house.
2. The ferocious wolf ran into the dark forest.
3. The sly magician fooled the naive people.
4. The exuberant girl visited a good friend.
5. The homeless man begged for some food.

A beginning piano player should regularly practice on an upright or even better, grand piano instead of an electronic keyboard.
Keyboards can be convenient to transport, but unless a student has first learned to use a piano, he or she will be at a disadvantage.
Pianos are created with weighted keys. Although some electronic keyboards have weighted keys, most cannot achieve the same
heaviness as a real piano. The weightiness of the keys helps to strengthen the finger muscles and allows a student to learn better
technique and control. It is much easier to go from playing on a piano to playing on a keyboard, than to switch from playing on a
keyboard to a piano.
Which sentence least supports the controlling idea?
OA.
Lack of practice on a piano can sometimes lead to a bad hand technique.
ОВ.
Some music can require a lot of hand strength, and this is best achieved by using a piano.
OC.
Practicing on a keyboard does not allow a piano student's fingers to develop strength.

The King of Oogaboo used to be a man named Jol Jemkiph Soforth,

There are several instances of irony in this story. Pick two and explain how they create a humorous effect. the Ransom of Red Chief
Answer: When the narrator and Bill Driscoll select their kidnapping victim they anticipate some quick, easy money from their ransom demand of two thousand dollars. After spending some time with the boy, these criminals reduce the ransom to fifteen hundred dollars because they figure it isn't fair to ask for so much for a "forty-pound chunk of freckled wildcat." To reduce the ransom based on the boy's behavior is both ironic and humorous, as is the fact that Johnny is both enjoying his captivity and mistreating his kidnappers.

Stephen Hawking was born in 1942 in Oxford, England. As a young child, he enjoyed taking apart clocks and radios to see how they worked. Stephen wasn't a very hardworking student, but he picked up concepts very quickly. At age 17, he began attending Oxford University where he studied chemistry and physics. Upon graduating, he went on to Cambridge University for postgraduate studies|in cosmology (the study of the universe). At age 21, Stephen started to stumble and drop things. His speech became slurred. Doctors diagnosed him with ALS, a disease that left him mostly paralyzed. His illness did not affect his brilliant mind. Stephen did not let his disability keep him from what he wanted to accomplish in life. He got married and had children. He went on to become a world-renowned physicist and best-selling author. His research and theories expanded our Understanding of black holes and the universe. When he was originally diagnosed, doctors had given Stephen only two to three years to live. He ended up living for another 55 years. On March 14, 2018,

As you write your business letter and memo, be sure to include all the proper elements. Refer to the list below as you begin writing. Remember, before you begin writing, be sure to choose which business where you want your letter received, and choose a person for which you'll write a memo.
Date--indicates the date the letter was written
Sender's address--considered an optional feature; it includes the address of the sender. It does not list the sender's name or position.
Inside address--includes the name of the person who will receive the letter and the complete address. Include the person's title such as Dr., Mr., or Ms. when unaware of a woman's title preference.
Greeting/salutation--includes the title and full name, followed by a colon
Body--provides details of the purpose for the letter. The first paragraph introduces the main idea. The middle of the letter or second paragraph explains the main idea. The end or last paragraph summarizes the main purpose for the letter and explains any required action. The writer must weigh the purpose for the letter against the length of the final copy of the letter. If the writer is seeking information or a job, then the letter is generally three paragraphs in length. It should not be too long or troublesome to read, but if the letter conveys specific information that the reader requested or needs, it may be longer.
Closing--"Sincerely" is the standard closing. It should be brief and followed by a comma.
Signature--The signature includes the signed and printed name of the writer.
Notations--includes additional information, depending on the purpose of the letter
enclosures: provides a signal that other material is included with the letter
continued pages: informs the reader that the letter extends beyond one page
typist's initials: tells the reader who typed the letter; original writers do not include initials.
cc: When carbon copies were used to create duplicates, cc indicated that a carbon copy was made and other people would receive the same letter. Today, the process of copying documents has certainly changed, but the name means the same.
