A simile uses "like" or "as", there's no "like" or "as" in this excerpt.
A repetition repeats a word or phrase, there is no word or phrase that is being repeated.
An alliteration is the only one that makes sense to me.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question.

Read the excerpt from The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind by William Kamkwamba.

One Saturday, Gilbert met me in the library and we flipped through books we thought might be fun. I couldn't study all the time. One book that caught my attention was the Malawi Junior Integrated Science book, used by Form Four students. Hmm, I thought, and flipped it open. There were lots of pictures and diagrams, which I found easy to understand. I saw pictures of cancer and scabies and children stricken with kwashiorkor, like so many who'd wandered the country. One picture had a man in a shiny silver suit walking on the moon.

What is the primary idea that the details in the excerpt tell a reader about Kamkwamba?

Answer:

He is intelligent despite his lack of education.

Explanation:

William Kamkwamba was a young boy from Malawi, a country where a great hunger and drought prevailed. As a young uneducated boy he had a dream to bring water and electricity to his poor town but he was greatly mocked by people around him.

The primary idea from the excerpt tells the reader about William high level of intelligence due to his ability to understand the pictures and diagrams in the science textbook despite the fact that he is not properly educated.

Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant. —Horace
Virty [35]

Answer: The quote "Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant ", by the poet Horace, is true to my life and I think is true for all life. The meaning behind it is that many times a person can face adversity and develop traits and talents that they would have never developed without those adversities. Although many people may think that adversity holds people back, I think that it enhances learning, exposes weakness, and helps us better understand ourselves. Without adversity it would be very difficult for people to advance and adapt in life.

With adversity comes learning. If life was always the same and your day to day process was a routine, then you would not learn very much. A person who lives like that would become very good at the things they do over and over again but then as soon that life style changes, they would have no idea what to do. That is why it is important to have adversity in life because it helps to learn when new situations occur. It also helps develop pristine skills and talents used in problem solving that would never exist without adversity.

Another advantage to having adversity in life is the exposure of weakness and the fortification of mental strength. When adversity comes up and we are easily able to solve the problem, we know that if that ever comes up again that we will have no problem bouncing back from that setback. If a larger and more severe situation occurs in out life and we are not able to handle it as well as other ones, we know that it is a weakness. Finding a weakness is beneficial for two reasons. The first is that it gives us something to practice for so that we are better at assessing such situations. The second is that it gives us something to watch out for and possibly makes us more careful to avoid that situation occurring again
