how is champagne made and what cultural events is champagne associated with?
Please use your own words :)
Answer:
please give me BRAINLIEST ANSWER
Explanation:
The history of Champagne has seen the wine evolve from being a pale, pinkish still wine to the sparkling wine now associated with the region. The Romans were the first to plant vineyards in this area of northeast France, with the region being cultivated by at least the 5th century, possibly earlier. When Hugh Capet was crowned King of France in 987 at the cathedral of Reims, located in the heart of the region, he started a tradition that brought successive monarchs to the region—with the local wine being on prominent display at the coronation banquets. The early wine of the Champagne region was a pale, pinkish wine made from Pinot noir.[1]
A bottle of Champagne being used to christen the USS Shangri-La (CV-38) in 1944. Champagne has had a long history of being used in celebration of events such as the launching of ships.
The Champenois were envious of the reputation of the wines made from their Burgundian neighbours to the south and sought to produce wines of equal acclaim. However the northerly climate of the region gave the Champenois a unique set of challenges in making red wine. At the far extremes of sustaining viticulture, the grapes would struggle to ripen fully and often would have bracing levels of acidity and low sugar levels. The wines were lighter bodied and thinner than the Burgundies.[1]
Furthermore, the cold winter temperatures prematurely halted fermentation in the cellars, leaving dormant yeast cells that would awaken in the warmth of spring and start fermenting again. One of the byproducts of fermentation is the release of carbon dioxide gas, which, if the wine is bottled, is trapped inside the wine, causing intense pressure. The pressure inside the weak, early French wine bottles often caused the bottles to explode, creating havoc in the cellars. If the bottle survived, the wine was found to contain bubbles, something that the early Champenois were horrified to see, considering it a fault. As late as the 17th century, Champenois wine makers, most notably the Benedictine monk Dom Pérignon (1638–1715), were still trying to rid their wines of the bubbles.[1]
While the Champenois and their French clients preferred their Champagne to be pale and still, the British were developing a taste for the unique bubbly wine. The sparkling version of Champagne continued to grow in popularity, especially among the wealthy and royal. Following the death of Louis XIV of France in 1715, the court of Philippe II, Duke of Orléans made the sparkling version of Champagne a favorite among the French nobility. More Champenois wine makers attempted to make their wines sparkle deliberately, but didn't know enough about how to control the process or how to make wine bottles strong enough to withstand the pressure.[1]
In the 19th century these obstacles were overcome, and the modern Champagne wine industry took form. Advances by the house of Veuve Clicquot in the development of the méthode champenoise made production of sparkling wine on a large scale profitable, and this period saw the founding of many of today's famous Champagne houses, including Krug (1843), Pommery (1858) and Bollinger (1829). The fortunes of the Champenois and the popularity of Champagne grew until a series of setbacks in the early 20th century. Phylloxera appeared, vineyard growers rioted in 1910–11, the Russian and American markets were lost because of the Russian Revolution and Prohibition, and two World Wars made the vineyards of Champagne a battlefield.[1]
The modern era, however, has seen a resurgence of the popularity of Champagne, a wine associated with both luxury and celebration, with sales quadrupling since 1950. Today the region's 86,500 acres (35,000 ha) produces over 200 million bottles of Champagne with worldwide demand prompting the French authorities to look into expanding the region's Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) zone to facilitate more production.[1]

Write a descriptive paragraph about a topic of your choosing, using at least three of the following elements of figurative language: imagery, simile, metaphor, alliteration, personification, onomatopoeia, hyperbole. Your paragraph should be at least 150 words in length.
Answer:
It was dusk when I finally reached the most beautiful and anticipated part of the trail: its ending. There I stood, watching the limitless horizon and what, to me, seemed to be billions of flowers, stretching eternally away from me. The daffodils danced playfully, giggling at one another, happily tickling and touching. The wind whooshed a bit harder now, as if to put their little dance to test. They did not complain, however. The spectacle went on. I lifted my eyes and stared at the clouds, floating by like weightless pieces of the finest cotton, tinted by the dying colors of a twilight sun.
Explanation:
Let's identify the elements of figurative language used above:
1. seemed to be billions of flowers = hyperbole, which is the use of exaggeration to describe something;
2. daffodils danced playfully, giggling at one another, happily tickling and touching = personification, which is the attribution of human actions or qualities to inanimate objects;
3. wind whooshed = onomatopoeia, which is the use of words that represent a sound by imitating it;
4. floating by like weightless pieces of the finest cotton = simile, which is a comparison made with the help of the words "like" or "as";
5. tinted by the dying colors of a twilight sun = imagery, which is a vivid description of something that appeals to one of the five senses. In this case, we are appealing to sight.
NOTE: Feel free to change anything in the paragraph.

What elements of the adaptation make it contemporary?
Answer:An empathetic HERO – a protagonist (male, female or android) with whom we identify from the very beginning of the story.
A clear, visible OUTER MOTIVATION that hero is desperate to achieve by the end of the story. Whether it’s to stop a killer, win a competition, rob a bank or win the love of her destiny, this goal must create a finish line that the hero is struggling to cross from the end of the first act (the 25% mark) until the climax of the film. This is NOT some inner feeling or state of being (success, acceptance, self worth), but rather a goal that creates a clear, consistent image for anyone who hears it.
Monumental, seemingly insurmountable CONFLICT. If the hero’s goal doesn’t seem impossible, and doesn’t force the hero to put everything on the line, the story won’t elicit sufficient emotion to get people to line up or tune in to see the movie.
SIMPLICITY. Movie stories can easily be expressed in a single sentence. Long, convoluted, multi character stories are almost impossible to advertise.
FAMILIARITY. Audiences prefer genre films that follow a consistent set of rules and promise a predictable emotional experience. The individual details of the plot and characters should be original, but movies that are hard to categorize are also hard to sell.

How make “I really like cats and dogs” into a metaphor and simile
"Raining cats and dogs" literally means that small animals are falling out of the sky. But, of course, this image of animals falling from the sky is a metaphor for very large, heavy drops of water (and possibly dark skies, since animals are opaque).
In a normal metaphor there should be no word (like).
