The answer is:

B. Sanjay, in his suit and tie, stood out <u>like a sore thumb</u>.

D. Anika’s hands were shaking <u>like leaves</u> as she got up to give her presentation.

E. The finch was <u>as busy as a bee</u>, building her nest.

F. The cabin stood <u>as a solemn sentinel</u> on the shore of the lake.

A simile is a comparison between two things of different kinds in order to make a description more emphatic or intense. It is an explicit metaphor and uses linking words such as <em>like, as, so, than</em> and several verbs similar to <em>resemble</em>. Similes are usually used to compare animate and inanimate things, and sometimes with humourous intentions.

1) <span> The specific differences that I noticed in the two performances mentioned above are that t</span>he first one was very touching and totally emotional, I bet that the author wanted to make us go through this perfomance in the shouse of the characters but because of this decision it was kind of hard to concentrate on the words. In the seconfd performance these two points (emotional and textual) are balanced so it was more holistic.

2) The way how Michael Pennington reaches out to you as the audience in his performance of Hamlet's soliloquy is his personal attitude he expressed to those who came to watch it by looking right at the camera while delivering his soliloquy. 

3) There is no photo or excerpt of the page that you have to analyze, and I can depend only on the Speech: “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears” from Julius Caesar, spoken by Marc Antony. I think that any of line should be rid, or changed in tone, because this is the major point that shapes and reveals the Antony's character who is considered as a <span>superficial man.

Hope that helps!</span>

Which language system most likely broke down in the following scenario?
Savatey [412]
The language system is semantics. "Coke" v.s "Sprite." are two different words, so we are focusing on a word. When Anna paused, she was confused because to Melinda, A Coke means a Sprite in her vocabulary. She wanted to confirm the same meaning. Semantics involves a changing meaning depending on the person. She is visiting from Alabama, so the meanings may have chosen just like dialects. Thus, it cannot be phonology/morphology, syntax, or pragmatics.
