The answer is option 1: <u>Simile</u>.

A simile is a figurative language or a metaphor that uses comparisons to describe an event, someone, a place, etc. It aims to make the writing more colorful and interesting. We can normally identify a simile because it uses "like", "as" and "as in" in the sentence.

In this case, we know for sure that the narrator describes ice skating using a simile since it describes it by comparing it with another action "is like jumping on a moving merry-go-round."

kupik [55]

Answer:

The only pro is that you will know that there is a hurricane on its way but the con is that there is no news channel that is viewing the hurricane that is arriving.

Also a mainstream daily newspaper and independent blogger are not usual go to sources, but I would prefer a daily newspaper over a independent blogger any day when looking for the latest news about a national disaster because newspapers are published daily as for independent bloggers are technically not reliable daily sources.

<span>“Our distinct cultures nourish each one of us” - I think that this phrase is the one that best uses persuasion because it makes the readers think. It prompts them to think on how his or her own culture have nourished him or her and others of different culture. It also makes people think of how he or she benefited from other culture as well. </span>
