Humans, whales and bats have one thing in common: they're all mammals. This means that they have a common ancestor that is not shared by for example fish: in this way, they can be said to have a common ancestor, the first mammal.
However, in the end, all life on earth can be trade to a common ancestor- so to some degree this can also be said about all animals.
Answer:
The new clients are not responding to our new product the way we had hoped. frankly, I'm hardly beside myself with last month's sales.
Explanation:
First, we must understand the context before we can choose an appropriate answer. <u>The speaker is talking about something bad: customers not responding (not buying) the new product. He/She also mentions that last month's sales have already been bad.</u> This context, therefore, asks for an idiom that conveys a negative idea.
We can eliminate options A and C, since they both convey a positive feeling. We are left with options B and D. Option D, down in the dumps, means sad. <u>Option B, beside myself, means shocked or upset. The speaker is saying he/she is hardly... because of last month's sales. In that case, the best option is B. beside myself. What the speaker means is that, because last month was so bad, he/she is not even surprised or shocked to see the current response to the new product.</u>
A phrase that uses symbolism is;
B. Though the flowers were long dead, she kept them in the vase to remember him.
These words which are used before a noun or a pronoun to show its
relationship with another word in the sentence are called prepositions.
