Answer:

Hi! This sentence is a <em>metaphor</em> to express that <em>flowers were so beautiful and vibrant that they seemed to be jewels gleaming under the sun.</em>

Explanation:

Let's remember that metaphors are used to make comparisons; a metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object to which it is not literally applicable. In this case, for example, flowers are not capable of gleaming, but the comparison with the shining jewels under the sun is made in order to express how beautiful, vibrant and shining they were.

xz_007 [3.2K]

The factors that shaped US foreign policy in the Middle East during George H.W. Bush were based on and primarily driven by the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

The Sept. 11 attacks sparked an aggressive administration by President Bush, which established that efforts to eliminate any terrorist cell implemented by Osama bin Laden's leadership would be spared, even if it promoted strong attacks on Afghanistan. This attitude has spawned a number of violent conflicts (such as the invasion of Iraq that has led to much destruction and death of innocents) and has harmed many Muslims around the world.

Although combating terrorism is necessary, Bush's approach was very violent and affected people who were not involved in terrorism, in addition to stimulating a series of prejudices against Muslims and people from the Middle East, so I do not agree with the Bush administration, in parts.
