The answer is B. They both make comparisons, but simile uses as or like.
The answer to that question is 0.56
An appositive phrase gives you an alternative description or more information about a noun, and it is separated from other elements in the sentence by commas.
The appositive phrase in this sentence is "a whiz at foreign languages" - you can identify it because it is describing and giving you more information about Mr. Wilson (the proper noun the phrase is next to) and has commas around it.
From the text: "<span>At the termination of this sentence I started, and for a moment, paused; for it appeared to me (although I at once concluded that my excited fancy had deceived me) — </span><span>it appeared to me that, from some very remote portion of the mansion or of its vicinity, there came, indistinctly, to my ears, what might have been, in its exact similarity of character, the echo (but a stifled and dull one certainly) of the very cracking and ripping sound which Sir Launcelot had so particularly described."</span>
gender inequality
According the (debatable) statistic that states 70% of the world’s poor are women, the crisis is mainly caused by gender inequality. Two- thirds of the world’s illiterate are women because of gender discrimination, more hurdles to social and economic well-being. This is noted in pay gaps, distorted ownership of assets, the discrimination that women should spend more time and energy in family rearing than building a career etc.
Gender equality and women empowerment can correct this dilemma and it can lead to societies’ sustainable development.
