It is a simile, because the author used the words (like) and (a), those are always hints that it is a simile.

Which excerpt from "Broken Chain" includes details that could illustrate a paragraph about conflict?
baherus [9]

The story of Broken Chains was written by Gary Soto. Gary Soto was born and raised in Fresno, California, the setting of many of his stories, poems, and autobiographical pieces. In his writing, Soto tries to recreate the sights and sounds of the Mexican American neighborhood in which he grew up.

The story is about Alfonso's first date. The story presents problems like the ones many of us face. He worries a lot about how he looks, and everything seems to go wrong.

Here we have a paraphrased version of the passage where it is shown that he had insecurity issues since he was a little kid.

<em>When he was four years old, he decided to face the situation and make it to Sandra's house, walking doubtfully and slowly as walking in the water up to his waist. His face was red by the shame. He wondered at how things could go wrong in this his first date, Sandra would probably laugh at him. </em>

This excerpt from "Broken Chain" includes details that could illustrate a paragraph about conflict, internal conflict actually:

1) He liked what he saw until he smiled and realized for the first time that his teeth were crooked, like a pile of wrecked cars. He grew depressed and turned away from the mirror.

tamaranim1 [39]
A journey that presents many challenges. 'Unpaved' showing it's not built, you gotta build it (build your future) and 'rocks' 'holes' and 'mud' obviously signifies trouble showing there are many challenges to face in the way.
Hope you found this helpful. :)
