  • Metaphor should not be confused for Simile, because even though they both make comparisons, simile uses "like" or "as" to convey the comparison, metaphor compares directly.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a. perseverance

e. confidence

Explanation:

The above two qualities are what the speaker most clearly display as a result of the experiences he describes in lines 1-14 of "Who Understands Me but Me".

He said that they turn water off, so he lived without water. He also said that they took his heart and rip it open, so he lived without heart and so on.
