What values should he embrace to make the Philippines a much better country?
Tema [17]

Hiya, pakikisama, utang na loob & respect to others make a Filipino an individual with unique moral obligation to treat one another resulting to community ties. These values make Filipinos friendly, hospitable, polite & loyal.

Filipinos are persons who are either citizens or natives of the Philippines. Today, the majority of Filipinos are from distinct Austronesian ethnolinguistic groups, and they all speak Filipino, English, and/or other Philippine languages.

The Philippines now has over 185 ethnolinguistic groups, each having its own language, identity, culture, and history. The "Callao Man" specimens unearthed in 2007 at the Callao Cave in Northern Luzon are the Philippines' earliest archaic human remains. They were dated in 2010 using uranium-series dating to the Late Pleistocene, which is approximately 67,000 years old.

Which two sentences use literary devices?
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option 2 and option 4.

Explanation:

In option 2, the phrase "like a waterfall" is a simile. The word "like" followed by the comparison of something exaggerated is usually a giveaway to determine a simile.

In option 4, the phrase "Herculean task" can be classified as either an idiom or an allusion (or both). An idiom is an exaggeration of something and an allusion is when a phrase relates something to a work of literature. In this case, it's relating to the story of Hercules.
