Answer:
Using Colin Powell's 2003 pre-war speech to the UN as a case study, this essay illustrates ways in which discourse analytic methods can serve investigations of constitutive rhetoric. Prior to the speech, Powell's reluctance to go to war and his skepticism of the need for military action in Iraq was well known. His conversion to the administration's position was key to the persuasiveness of the speech. Thus, within the speech he needed to reconstitute his ethos from doubter to advocate. The analysis focuses on how specific linguistic qualities such as modality, positioning, narrative, and evaluation assist Powell in doing so. These discourse analytic tools reveal ways in which discrete linguistic moves contribute to the constitutive work of ethos formation and re-formation.

Answer:
simile
Explanation:
A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).
In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.
Metaphor is an implied comparison without the use of the word as or like. It involves creating a direct similarity between two words or things.
Idioms are phrases that may be impossible to interpret or difficult to understand based on a loose translation of the words contained therein. Therefore, idioms are everyday language that shouldn't be interpreted literally but in a figurative sense.
Personification involves intentionally attributing life, human characteristics (qualities) or feelings and emotions to inanimate objects i.e non-living things.
Simile has to do with comparison of two things using as or like.
Hence, the type of figurative language used in the above sentence is simile because the burned meat was compared with leather (old sneakers) using as.
Answer:
D) simile

For example, saying that because tigers are predators and are dangerous to men, house cats must also be dangerous to men because they are both feline species.

My skateboard is the thing that I most prize:

Answer:
My skateboard is the thing that I most prize:
My sun, my moon, my stars. And it may be
Worn down and shabby-looking old device
But it's a first-rate vehicle you'll see.
Explanation:
A sonnet is a short poem that typically has iambic pentameter (a pattern of 10 stressed and unstressed syllables). In the most common type of Sonnet (Shakespeare style), the rhyme scheme tends to be ABAB, which is the one that Abel's sonnet has. The first two lines have already 10 syllables, so they are complete. The words "old device" (3 syllables) and "you'll see" (2 syllables) are added to the last two lines to complete the sonnet and maintain the same rhyme scheme.
