Once you understand what is counts as a simile and what counts as a metaphor it would become more easier.
A simile is a comparison of at least two things using the words "like" or "as".
For example, the usage of a simile can include:
Tom is like a mountain goat, leaping from one rock to another.
Note the comparison of Tom to a mountain goat, and the usage of "like", or being similar too.
Another example can be:
James was as brave as a lion, strong as a bear, leapt like a gazelle, and as smart as Einstein.
Note the comparison of James to many different animals as well as a famous person.
The next thing that you should be learning is Metaphor, which is kind of related to similes.
Metaphors is a comparison, but without using the words "like" or "as"
For example, the usage of a metaphor can include:
Her long hair flowed down like a river.
While "like" or "as" was not used, her hair was compared to a river.
When you understand this concept it would be very very useful, especially when writing essays. Most of the time you may need to compare things, such as products, ideas/beliefs, and even different civilizations within a time period (specifically in history class). Understanding how to use similes & metaphors can help enhance your writing.

Read the following excerpt from chapter 21 of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of
Wrath.
Those families which had lived on a little piece of land, who had
lived and died on forty acres, had eaten or starved on the
produce of forty acres, had now the whole West to rove in. And
they scampered about, looking for work; and the highways were
streams of people, and the ditch banks were lines of people.
Behind them more were coming. The great highways streamed
with moving people. There in the Middle and Southwest had lived
a simple agrarian folk who had not changed with industry, who
had not farmed with machines or known the power and danger
of machines in private hands. They had not grown up in the
paradoxes of industry. Their senses were still sharp to the
ridiculousness of the industrial life.
And then suddenly the machines pushed them out and they
swarmed on the highways. The movement changed them; the
highways, the camps along the road, the fear of hunger and the
hunger itself, changed them. The children without dinner
changed them, the endless moving changed them. They were
migrants. And the hostility changed them, welded them, united
them-hostility that made the little towns group and arm as
though to repel an invader, squads with pick handles, clerks and
storekeepers with shotguns, guarding the world against their own
people.
Analyze how the author uses the rhetorical devices of parallelism and diction to
convey the tone of the text. Be sure to include specific details from the text to
support your answer.
Answer:
The author made used of certain rhetorical devices such as parallelism to highlight how helpless the situation of the migrants were and how they were hated and despised but had no choice but to try their best to survive.
Explanation:
Parallelism in literary writing is simply the matching or pairings of words, or phrases within a sentence.
Diction has to do with the choice of words used when writing.
The subject matter here is about the agrarian and how they found themselves out of work because of the industrial boom.
They moved in search of food and to give their families a meal to survive.
Parallelism was used to emphasize their misery, sadness and frustrations.
For example, "a simple agrarian folk who had not changed …….. who had not farmed. They had not grown up…." was used to show the simplicity of the agrarian and how they were almost destroyed.
This repetition of phrases and clauses is parallelism.
The choice of words here by the author here to accentuate their sufferings were also visible with words like 'ridiculousness' used to highlight their situation.
"Their senses were still sharp to the
ridiculousness of the industrial life"

In "An Indian Father's Plea" what does Medicine Grizzlybear Lake ask the teacher to do for wind-wolf?
Answer:
C. Give him a second chance and treat him more fairly .
Explanation:
The letter "An Indian Father's Plea" is a plea letter written by Medicine Grizzlybear Lake to his son's teacher who has labeled him "a slow learner". The son, Wind-Wolf is a native Indian who had started school in a western American schooling system and seemed 'slow' as compared to the other students.
But according to the father, he had been through more education than his classmates. Just because he is an Indian doesn't mean he doesn't know the way of the world or even the American western system. As compared to his traditional way of learning, the western education system may be hard but that is no reason to call a child "a slow learner". So, Robert Lake (Medicine Grizzlybear) wrote this letter as a plea to ask the teacher to give his son Wind-Wolf a second chance and treat him more fairly.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Locate the participle (not the entire participial phrase) and the word it modifies.

Answer:
Reminding, younger and carefully.Explanation:

In case of a noun, adjectives are used as modifiers such as blue pen, pink dress, eldest son, etc, while in case of a verb, adverbs are used as modifiers such as talk clearly, jump swiftly, smile gently,etc.Here, the word "reminding" is the participle while "younger"and "carefully" are the modifiers.this problem cannot be solved by john change into active voice

Give three reasons why you think the author uses Death as the narrator in the book "The Book Thief"
Answer:
The three reasons that author used 'Death' as a narrator:
1. He though death and war to be best friend.
2. To present the story from 'Death's point of view using 'first person limited narration.'
3. Death is also used as narrator to tell about the things that were going on in Germany, Poland, and Russia.
Explanation:
'The Book Thief' is written by Markus Zusak. The book is historical fiction narrated from 'Death's' point of view. The author used 'Death' as a narrator of the book using 'First Person Limited Narration.'
This narration has helped to shed a light on all the deaths that were happening during the World War 2. Death gave perspective to Linsel's life and other's life as well. When asked Zusak about the reason behind choosing 'Death' as a narrator he said that while writing about this historical event of war, he realized that war and death are bestt friends. So he used this context to narrate the story of war from Death's point of view. Zusak also used Death as a narrator to narrate the readers of the things that were simultaneously going on in Germany, Polland, and Russia. He gave insight of other deaths as well. Zusak said that one thing that was common in these countries was 'Death.' So, this is the reason he chose Death as a narrator.A Pup Unleashed
"You know how your dad feels about keeping animals in the house, Evan, and this is the second time you'll be upsetting him. Last time, you rescued a cat and kept it for a week in your room. Remember how much we had to convince your dad to grant you permission for doing that?" said Evan's mom, Laurie, in a weary tone.
"I know, mom, but last time I kept the cat just for a week before it got adopted, and now, she is doing well and living with a great family. I found this puppy wandering on the street with no one else around to take care of him. So, I got him home, and I promise I'll get him adopted as soon as I can," pleaded Evan.
"You're a good boy, Evan. I'll talk to your dad and see what I can do," said Evan's mom, with a smile on her face.
Laurie tried to convince Evan's dad, Henry, that night to let Evan keep the pup in Evan's room before he could get it adopted. After much discussion, Henry agreed to let Evan keep the pup only for one week.
Over the next three days, Henry often complained about Evan carelessly letting the pup wander the house whenever he spotted the pup outside Evan's room, but, on the fourth day, Henry was reading a newspaper in the living room when the pup waddled in. Henry peeked at the pup's gait, and suddenly, a smile broke upon his face.

Which two pieces of evidence from the passage best support the idea that Evan likes to help animals in need?
So, I got him home, and I promise I'll get him adopted
Henry agreed to let Evan keep the pup only for one week
she is doing well and living with a great family
this is the second time you'll be upsetting him
you rescued a cat and kept it for a wee
Answer:
So, I got him home, and I promise I'll get him adopted .
you rescued a cat and kept it for a week.
Explanation:
In the given passage from "A Pup Unleashed", Evan's character is someone who loves animals and helps them get their forever homes. He would take in strays and help them get a safe house, most of the time, having to argue with his family against taking in strays.
But at the same time, he seems to have a heart of gold for he couldn't ignore the suffering of the animals. After keeping a cat for a week with him and then eventually getting him adopted, he has now taken in another stray, this time, a dog, much against his parents' liking. But despite their original demeanor, they allowed their son to keep the dog for a week. They know he has good intentions and just wanted to get someone to take him home, "get him adopted".
The two pieces of evidence that best support the idea that Evan likes helping animals in need is when he took in a stray cat and kept him for a week and his decision to take in the dog and get him adopted.

Imagine yourself much older and looking back on your life. Write about what you hope to accomplish in your life by then.
Answer:
For me I wish someone had taught me that getting along with people well is actually far more important than being superb at your job. I saw it 1000 times that the easier-going person got promoted and the more determined workaholic who really knew their stuff were passed over. I never learned how to small talk.
I was told several times that college is the most important time of a person’s life and that the relationships made then are crucially important down the line. I spent far too much time becoming an outstanding student/MD and far too little time complimenting the nurses and administrators, etc., always willing to linger for small talk even if patients were waiting on me. It took a long time for me to realize that no one cared how expert I was as long as I completed the minimum necessary work, and the patients’ outcomes were of scarce importance to them.
Now with internet access it’s much easier to maintain relationships, although the substance seems much shallower than a handwritten snail mail letter from generations ago when literacy was really valued and letters were creative.
I’ve never spent time arguing since it always seemed pointless to me. I was right. I think of the thousands of arguments I've witnessed over the years and the nonsense I put up with with so many combative personalities. If only I knew then that people cannot communicate properly when arguing so it’s a complete waste of time for everyone. I decided many years ago to never sit through such nonsense and simply say “let’s table this until everyone is calm” and then I exit.

And the Soul Shall Dance is described as a very realistic play due to the details and focus on objects by playwright, Wakako Yamauchi. What are three of these details and objects
Answer:
"And the Soul Shall Dance" by Wakako Yamauchi
Details were provided about these three objects:
1) Oka's Horse: Oka wanted to sell it to enable him bring his daughter, Masako, back from Japan. He eventually sold it. And even pleaded with Murata to occasionally have his own horse for transport.
2) Emiko's Kimonos: Emiko was desperate to see the kimonos to enable her buy a ticket to return to Japan where she would live her life freely without racial discrimination prevalent in the U.S.
3) Japanese Sake: In America, the Japanese were addicted to their local brew, the sake. And they would carry it out, even as guests. The sake is an alcoholic wine made by fermenting polished rice. They were always intoxicated by the wine.
Explanation:
"And The Soul Shall Dance" was a 1977 first full-length play by Wakako Yamauchi. The play narrated the story of a young Japanese American girl, Masako and her parents as they struggled to live in a racially-biased America during The Great Depression. "And The Soul Shall Dance" shows the many issues facing Japanese Americans in America such as assimilation, immigration, social, economic and political status, and survival.
Answer:
In his play, Cherry Orchard, Anton Chekhov, an upper-class family, dissipated their money away and lost a house to their old peasants. In Death of the Salesman by Arthur Miller, he portrayed a common man's struggle with American illusion. So Realism has always been used to highlight the psychological issues, the struggle of a common man, and other social issues.
Explanation:
In The Soul Shall Dance, Wakako Yamauchi used three significant ways to portray Realism. This play inspected the life of two Japanese families living their lives in California.
The sporadic view of the stage gave us an idea about the immigrants' economic circumstances—for example, a phonograph, some towels, a bottle of sake, and a chiles plate.
The bottle of sake made Oka more outspoken and vibrant to express her problems. Moreover, she was exposing her wills to the reunion with Kiyoko.
Money that has been saved by Emiko to return to Japan is another realistic illustration object. However, Oka took that money to lavish her daughter's way of life but side by side, hiding it from his wife; otherwise, she would never be eager to return to Japan.
Both families left their homeland in the quest for better living but ended up living a miserable life in which they have to struggle a lot and eventually lost their identities.

Create an original example for the fallacy type Mistaken Causality that could relate to you as a teen/high school student.
Answer:
If you would not buy this workbook from school, you will fail in exams.
Explanation:
Mistaken Causality is a type of fallacy which states that one event brought about the causation of the other event. It is based on the domino effect, which asserts that occurrence of one event produced the happening of other event.
An example of mistaken causality fallacy related to teen/high school that a student could relate is when teachers or school forces them to buy certain products from school only which, otherwise, may have adverse effects.
One such example of this is:
'If you would not buy this workbook from school, you will fail in exams.'
This is an example of mistaken causality. Because no student would fail if he/she knows his subject very well and study from his textbooks. Workbooks are there for further help and advance knowledge, which can be bought from stationaries or practiced online.
