Asked by Henry2



Could you please check these two sentences, please?

1) Water chute and spring board don't have the same meaning, but I think I can use them both with "dive into the water".
2) Superman was both a superhero endowed with superpowers and a shy and insecure newspaper reporter.
He was named (called, are they synonyms?) Clerk by the Kent familiy, who adopted him afer he was sent to earth from the planet Krypton.

1. You would use "dive" with "springboard" (or "diving board"), but you'd use "slide into the water" with "water chute." See the differences:
