which pairing of words describes a barrage of applause?
soft and peaceful
strong and ongoing
tender and infrequent
gradual and uneven

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the meaning of "barrage". A barrage is a continuous, forceful outpouring. So "barrage of applause" should be strong (forceful) and ongoing (continuous). "Soft and peaceful" is gentle, "tender and infrequent" is mild and rare, "gradual and uneven" is slow and irregular—none match. Only "strong and ongoing" fits.

Answer:

B. strong and ongoing (assuming the options are labeled A - D with A as soft and peaceful, B as strong and ongoing, C as tender and infrequent, D as gradual and uneven; if labels differ, adjust to the correct option text with its identifier)
