At w. w. direct, i really just began as a lowly data-acquisition specialist, but through a lot of hard work and a very strong work ethic i eventually became a data analyst and earned a much, much higher hourly wage.

what is the style of this excerpt from paul f. covington's cover letter?
a. wordy
b. professional
c. formal
d. precise

A. Wordy

Explanation:

Paul F. Covington 's excerpt sounds wordy because he has written information which is not relevant to apply for a job.  Besides, he also sounds quite informal. "I really just began as a lowly data-acquisition specialist.." in this quotation the words in italics are  instances of informal language. "but through a lot of hard work and a very strong work ethic ..", in this quotation Paul is bragging that he is a hard working and ethical employee, which  doess not sound professional."...earned a much, much higher hourly wage.", through these words, Paul gives personal information about his pay. He is not expected to do so in a cover letter.

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.
