Read the sentence.

The shirt was old.

Which revised sentence describes the shirt by using a simile?

The old shirt was a memorial of days gone by.
The old shirt looked tired and sad, as though it missed days gone by.
The old shirt had been around forever, but it reminded him of days gone by.
The old shirt was like a wearable scrapbook, reminding him of days gone by.

Answer:

the old shirt was like a wearable scrapbook, reminding him of days gone by

Explanation:

similes compare two things using the words 'like' or 'as' and that sentence is the only one using either one of those, I hope this helps :)

The revision of the sentence using a simile would be:

D). The old shirt was like a wearable scrapbook, reminding him of days gone by.

A simile is designated as the tool or device employed in literature with the intent of proferring a straight comparison among two objects with the usage of words either 'like' or 'as.'

Among the offered options, only the last sentence has been able to demonstrate 'simile' as it lays a comparison of how the old shirt displays characteristics similar to a scrapbook.

This aids the author/authoress to expand on the former's condition, and hence, it provides aid to the readers in recognizing the idea more proficiently.

Thus, the correct option is D.

Read the two passages.


Passage 1


Its stunning natural scenery makes the Great Barrier Reef a popular tourist destination. About two million people visit the reef each year. Most of those visitors are domestic tourists. This is largely due to the fact that Australia is so far away from most places. There are lots of different ways to experience the Great Barrier Reef. Visitors can go diving, fishing, swimming, and enjoy water sports. Some people choose to tour the reef by airplane or helicopter, and others may tour the reef by boat. Tourists can take in the spectacular scenery from a small dinghy or a grand superyacht. There are even glass-bottomed boats that let passengers view the underwater wildlife and scenery. Adventurous visitors may seek out one of the handful of havens where they can swim with wild dolphins. One of the major appeals of these activities is that most of them do not require special training or expensive equipment. There is no one way for people to experience the reef. Regardless of the activities people choose, they encounter some of the most stunning maritime scenery on the planet.


Passage 2


On our visit to the Great Barrier Reef this last summer, we discovered how stunning this natural wonder is. We weren't alone. Thousands of tourists joined us to take in the wonders that the reef offers. Though we were among thousands, many people, like us, were from Australia. It makes sense I guess, as Australia is quite isolated and harder to travel to. We just felt lucky to experience this amazing reef alongside other Australians and people from all over the world. There were so many activities to choose from. We decided to go snorkeling. We also took a ride in a glass-bottomed boat. We saw so many fish on that boat trip, and we even saw a giant stingray! After a long day at the beach and out on the water, we heard what some other tourists had experienced during the day. There was one thing we agreed on: the Great Barrier Reef offered some of the most incredible underwater scenery any of us had ever seen.

Excess amounts of cheese given to canines can also lead to potentially greater risks, such as death. However, some veterinarians say that feeding cheese to your puppy can be quite beneficial.

Read Zion National Park:

In 1917, Horace Albright visited the canyon created by the Virgin River in southwestern Utah. He was amazed at the beauty of the colorful cliffs. Albright determined that this national monument would become a popular tourist destination. The official name of the monument at that time was Mukuntuweap National Monument. It had been named in honor of the Paiutes who lived in the region. Albright thought that the name was difficult to pronounce and proposed a name change. President Woodrow Wilson renamed the monument Zion National Monument, which became Zion National Park in 1919. The number of people visiting the park increased from approximately 300 in 1914 to 1,814 people in 1919.

Zion National Park is known for its many hiking trails. The shortest trail leads to one of the popular destinations: Weeping Rock, a cliff face with a hanging garden. Over the years, water made its way through the Navajo sandstone of the cliff, traveling through pores and creating canyons. Eventually, the water encountered a layer of rock that was impermeable. The water was unable to continue down, so it traveled horizontally. At Weeping Rock, the water comes through the pores of the sandstone. The amount of water that flows out of the rock can be a trickle or a stream, giving the impression that the rock is crying. Vegetation grows in shaded areas of the cliff with water coming through the rock. As the plants grow out of the rock face, they give the illusion that they are hanging in the air.

In the last century, word spread of Zion National Park's many natural treasures, like the Weeping Rock. Roads, trails, and visitor centers were built. More people traveled to Zion in order to hike, horseback ride, and go canyoneering. The Zion-Mount Carmel Tunnel was constructed by 1930. Visitors still use the tunnel to travel from Zion to the Grand Canyon or Bryce Canyon. Now, park rangers are facing problems created by having too many visitors. Trails and campgrounds are overused and need repairs. Visitors are straying off the trails to create their own, thereby damaging the vegetation. Rangers are considering the best ways to protect this national park and maintain its beauty for future generations.

Select the sentence from the text that explains the cause of Weeping Rock's unusual water flow.

Read the two passages from "Protecting the Great Barrier Reef."


Passage 1


The authorities that manage the Great Barrier Reef consider climate change to be the greatest threat to the reef. Warming ocean temperatures are causing a phenomenon called coral bleaching. Coral has a substance called algae living in it. The algae provides the coral with up to 90 percent of the energy it needs. When the water is too warm, coral will release the algae living in its tissue. This causes the coral to turn completely white. One coral releases its algae, it begins to starve. Coral can sometimes survive bleaching, but it is under considerably more stress afterward. Unfortunately, coral bleaching due to climate change is not the only challenge faced by the reef.


Passage 2


The good news is that steps are being taken to manage this problem. Responsible farming practices helps minimize harm to the Great Barrier Reef. It is important that fertilizers and pesticides are used properly. Equally important is using less of them and only when necessary. It is also important for farmers to learn how to properly manage and avoid soil erosion. The Queensland Farmers' Federation is an organization of 2,600 farmers who have land along the Great Barrier Reef. They have joined together to work towards better land management practices. This sort of action is vital to the ongoing protection of the Great Barrier Reef.


What would make the structure of Passage 1 more similar to the structure of Passage 2?

1 The author could focus Passage 1 more on the causes of coral bleaching and how it affects the coral.

2 The author could focus Passage 1 more on comparing and contrasting healthy and unhealthy coral.

3 The author could include possible solutions to the problem in Passage 1.

4 The author could include more dates to show the order of events in Passage 1.
