A simile, because a simile is a phrase that includes the words like or as and your example says "-sounded like a freight train" so it's comparing the sound of the storm, to the sound of the freight train.

Consonance

The words snag and wrangle have the same sounds in them. 

Alliteration would be first fairly frequent letters lighting limply on the page.

Rhyme is just like time because we all like lime.

Repetition is going, going, going every step of the way.

(for person above)^ that's rude! You don't know what they're going through, this might be the only question they ever asked about, they might be an A+ student who does the readings, goes to classes, has no overdues, etc. BE MORE NICE/KIND TO PEOPLE!  Anyways, I would say the answer is c - to emphasize his claim that slavery should have no place in the land of the free. :) Hope this helps, have a great day/weekend EVERYONE! <span> </span>

irga5000 [103]

cause it is talking about how they have known each other for so long but never really talked and that its good to let people know how u feel "It helps you to let off steam."


Peter. I suppose you miss your friends and all.

Anne. It isn't just . . . (She breaks off, staring up at him for a second.) Isn't it funny, you and I? Here we’ve been seeing each other every minute for almost a year and a half, and this is the first time we've ever really talked. It helps a lot to have someone to talk to, don't you think? It helps you to let off steam.(continued)

Peter (Going to the door). Well, any time you want to let off steam, you can come into my room.

Anne (Following him). I can get up an awful lot of steam. You'll have to be careful how you say that.

Peter. It’s all right with me.

Anne. Do you mean it?

Peter. I said it, didn’t I?

your welcome have a wonderful day

How does Michio Kaku develop the idea of an impending scientific revolution in “Choreographers of Matter, Life, and Intelligence
motikmotik

by praising the efficiency of modern-day Internet research  doesn't relate to anything regarding "Choreographers of Matter, Life, and Intelligence" when it comes to argumentation. Comparing scientific knowledge to grains of sand on a beach  is poetic, but it is no argument either. Proving names of modern scientists and their contributions also shows nothing but the scientists and their contributions themselves. It doesn't work as proof for <em>"an impending scientific revolution".</em>

What Michio Kaku does, as the good scientist that he is, is to show evidence. And he does so "by providing quantitative proof of recent scientific progress"
