A is the answer to this question
Answer: C. an appeal to logic
<em>Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry</em> is a book by Rudolfo Anaya.
In this excerpt, the author cites an example of the censorship that his book has had to endure. He gives an account of how a high school class took the books outside and saw that they were burned. This is an appeal to logic as it uses concrete evidence to sustain the argument. Based on this event, we can logically conclude that Anaya's book has been the object of censorship.
The answer is a simile. This is because similes compare two things (these things here are his life and the dusty yards) by using like or as (specifically here as).
The other ones don't make sense: nothing is being over exaggerated (hyperbole), there are no repeating consonants (alliteration), and there are no human characteristics being given to inhuman subjects (personification).
