An adjective meaning interesting or exciting
A verb meaning to become less hot
An adjective meaning relaxed
Answer:
A verb meaning to become less hot!
Explanation:
a)The adjective "local" is formed by adding a suffix to a free morepheme.
-True
-or false
b) The word (news) takes a _______ form in the noun paradigm
- singular only
-singular + plural
- plural only
-singular + plural + possessive
Answer:
a). False
b). singular only
Explanation:
a). The adjective 'local' which denotes 'from or in a nearby location' exemplifies a base word. In this word, the suffix '-al' is joined with a bound morpheme 'loc-' to make it meaningful. Bound morphemes cannot stand on their own to convey meaning and thus, it requires another suffix or prefix to accomplish its meaning. Thus, the statement is false as the 'local' itself is a root word used with various suffixes to derive words like locally, localized, locality, etc.
b). Grammatically, the noun 'news' is considered singular, as well as, uncountable and therefore, it carries a singular verb. It remains the same irrespective of the singular or plural context in which it is being used. It doesn't carry an indefinite article as it specifies the number of the noun. The noun 'news' varies its meaning in the context which it is used in. However, the form remains 'singular only.'

The backyard of a city apartment building is not the first place one might expect to find a chicken coop, but so-called "urban farming” has caught on in recent years as people embrace the benefits of eating local. However, raising backyard chickens can be a significant health risk for the surrounding community. Cities need to relearn the lessons of the early 20th century and ban the raising of chickens in urban settings.

What is a rhetorical device?A rhetorical device is typically defined as a technique or word construction that a speaker or writer uses to win an audience to their side, either while trying to persuade them to do something or trying to win an argument.
The majority of rhetorical devices have names that come from Greek or Latin. While the concept of public speaking developed early around the world, much of what we know about the art of public speaking comes to English speakers from the ancient Greeks. The Greeks cultivated the art of rhetoric and many great philosophers, such as Plato and Aristotle, thoroughly studied it. The ancient Romans greatly valued rhetoric as well and they continued to build on the Greek rhetorical traditions that came before them.
Rhetorical devices are effective tools that any writer or speaker can use to make their words more impactful to an audience.

The e) If I hadn't withdrawn from the gang, I would also be in prison now. mike condition als
Answer:
a) Lea will go to NUST next year if she meets the requirements. First conditional.
b) If you freeze water, it becomes solid. Zero conditional.
c) If I get $1 million in my life, I will marry the most beautiful woman in the universe. First conditional.
d) Had I studied this course ten years ago, I would have become a lecturer. Third conditional.
e) If I hadn't withdrawn from the gang, I would also be in prison now. Second Conditional
Explanation:
There are four types of conditionals, each of them expresses different situations.
Zero conditional: we use it to talk about things that are always true. like sentence B, "If you freeze water, it becomes solid." To use the zero conditional, we use the If + clause in present simple,+ clause in present simple.First conditional: we use it to talk about things that may happen in the future or hypothetical situations. Sentence A, "Lea will go to NUST next year if she meets the requirements." uses the first conditional to talk about an event that is likely to happen in the future. Sentence c, "If I get $1 million in my life, I will marry the most beautiful woman in the universe." use this conditional to talk about a hypothetical situation. To write a sentence, we first use the If + clause in the present simple,+ will + clause with the verb in the infinitive. Also, we can write the if + clause at the end. In this case, we do not add a comma after the will + infinitive.Second conditional: we use this conditional to talk about an imaginary or hypothetical situation in the present or future. It is present in sentence E "If I hadn't withdrawn from the gang, I would also be in prison now.". To use it, we have to write the if + clause in past simple, + would + clause in the infinitive.Third conditional: we use this conditional to talk about something that we wish we had done in the past and its hypothetical outcome. It is present in sentence D "Had I studied this course ten years ago, I would have become a lecturer." We can see that the person is expressing a hypothetical situation in the past and how things would be. To use the third conditional, we write the if + clause in the past perfect, + would have + clause in the infinitive. In sentence D, instead of using if, there is an inversion of the auxiliary and the subject.

What type of irony is shown in the following paragraph? “The rookie wide receiver has been the star of the team, leading the league in touchdowns, yet no one knew the wide receiver very well. No one talked to the wide receiver. No one knew where the wide receiver came from. No one knew about the ponytail the wide receiver had hidden in the helmet. No one knew Lucy Parker was the wide receiver’s real name. And no one could ever know. Women were not allowed to play, but Lucy was determined to show them that she had every right to play."
The Irony which best describes the paragraph is Dramatic Irony.
Dramatic irony occurs when the reader knows something the characters don't.
In the excerpt, neither the team nor the audience knew that the Wide Receiver was Lucy Parker.
She had concealed her identity because she is female, and women were prohibited from playing American Football.
Other forms of irony are:
a) Definition Irony. This occurs when there is a contrast between what is expected and what happens. This almost looks like it. However, the other side of expectation is occurrence. When something occurs it is most likely in the know of the people involved. Recall that no one on the team knows that Lucy is a woman yet. hence this answer cannot fly.
b) Situational irony. This is almost like the Definition of Irony. In this case, however, there is no expectation. Only a sudden occurrence of an event that was not expected to happen. If the team discovers that after winning the league that it was because of Lucy that they won, then a situational irony would have occurred. Remember,
Definition Irony is when Expectation is not equal to the occurrence.Situational Irony is when there is no pre-expectation of the event that happened.c) Verbal Irony. This is the easiest to grasp. It is used when exactly the opposite of what actually exists is spoken of. For example, John Cena is not a wrestler. Or it snows in summer.
