The day was sunny but cool. Ernie kicked the leaves on the sidewalk as he walked home from the gym. Frowning, he kept replaying the game in his mind. For just a couple of seconds, he had let his guard down, and his opponent had taken advantage of the lapse to toss a long one right through the hoop.
His opponent had moved his team ahead, and Ernie’s team had fallen farther and farther behind after that. Not that Ernie was playing by then. After his terrible lapse, Coach had benched him for the rest of the game. Ernie sighed. If he didn’t improve his concentration, he might not even get to play next time. He resolved to practice doubly hard all week.
From the details in the passage, what conclusion can you draw about when the events occurred?
It was a winter night.
It was a springtime morning.
It was a summer evening.
It was an autumn afternoon.

Which line in this excerpt from the great gatsby by f. scott fitzgerald contains a simile? about half way between west egg and new york the motor-road hastily joins the railroad and runs beside it for a quarter of a mile, so as to shrink away from a certain desolate area of land. this is a valley of ashes—a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat into ridges and hills and grotesque gardens where ashes take the forms of houses and chimneys and rising smoke and finally, with a transcendent effort, of men who move dimly and already crumbling through the powdery air. occasionally a line of grey cars crawls along an invisible track, gives out a ghastly creak and comes to rest, and immediately the ash-grey men swarm up with leaden spades and stir up an impenetrable cloud which screens their obscure operations from your sight.
