Explanation:

Problem 2:

Step1: Identify pronoun issue

The subject is "Customers" (plural), but "you" is used. We need a plural pronoun consistent with "Customers".

Step2: Correct the pronoun

Replace "you" with "they" to agree with the plural antecedent "Customers".

To determine negative connotation, analyze each word: "scared" is mild fear, "shocked" is surprise (not purely negative), "frightened" implies a stronger, more distressing fear, having the most negative connotation.

Step1: Identify figurative language

"running in circles" is the figurative part. It's not literal (thoughts can't run).

Step2: Classify and explain

This is a metaphor (or personification, but more likely a metaphorical expression). It means the thoughts were repetitive, confused, and not making progress, like moving in circles without a clear direction. (Note: The original answer "hyperboly" is misspelled; the correct term is "hyperbole" or more accurately, this is a metaphor or idiom. If we consider the intended term, maybe a mistake, but the figurative language is "running in circles", meaning thoughts were repetitive and aimless.)

Answer:

In the sentence "Customers can drive up to the window, or you can have your food delivered.", the incorrect pronoun is "you"; the correct pronoun is "they".
