<u>Answer</u>:

Tthe sentence which can be revised to eliminate redundancies is

B: Juan was costumed in disguise when he entered the room.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Redundancy in a sentence refers to same data being used more than once in a sentence just by using a different word. It doesn’t make a sentence grammatically wrong, but more than one similar word seems unnecessary. They make the writing weak and not appealing. So, redundancy should be avoided while writing.

In the given sentences, Juan was costumed in disguise when he entered the room has redundancy. “In disguise” means when one is dressed differently or has made a different appearance. So, given sentence can be written as “Juan was disguised when he entered the room”. Writing “costumed in disguise” makes the sentence redundant.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
liberstina [14]

Answer:

C)This metaphor is significant because water is a symbol of youth and beauty, which the mirror reflects.

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of speech widely used in poems, because it is a figure of expressive content. Through the use of metaphor, the author can produce phrases of figurative meanings, through comparisons between two things that will bring a poetic and expressive meaning to a given phrase.

We can see an example of this, in the question above, where the author uses the metaphor to compare a mirror with a lake, in a very poetic way. This is because the mirror has the ability to reflect the image that is placed in front of you, when the woman places herself in front of the mirror she sees her young and beautiful image. Youth and beauty can be symbolized through the water of a lake that remains youthful for eternity and owner of a beauty reflected in its waters.

In "Self-Reliance" what does Thoreau believe hinders the development of a person?
Oxana [17]

The correct answer is C: Conforming to society. Thoreau developed a set of postures - under the name of "<em>Self Reliance</em>" - that explained how an individual's existence can be only be lived to the fullest if he has absolute confidence in his abilities and the utmost trust in himself, while confining into a life away from society. One of his main arguments was the fact that common folks spend too many resources (money, time, effort, etc) trying to adapt to society's patterns like fashion, hindering them from growing a strong self-developed sense of taste or giving the proper value to its voice and individuality.
