In "An inconvenient truth", Al Gore states that the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide goes up and down every year. When it's summer in the northern hemisphere, where there is the majority of the vegetation " the leaves come out and they breathe in the carbon dioxide and the amount in the atmosphere goes down". On the winter the vegetation exhales carbon dioxide and so the levels increase. This is what a college professor of him found out. He started making these measurements in 1958. By the middle sixties, when the teacher shown Al Gore's class, the graphic showed clearly that the levels were going up.

Answer and Explanation:

Hi. This question requires a personal answer, based on your own experiences. however, I'm going to show you an answer and hope you can use it as a template to create your own answer.

I usually have difficulties to communicate with my family when I'm facing difficulties that make me sad and with weakened mental health. This difficulty occurs because, in these moments, I feel weakened, without energy and I have no hope that someone will understand my problems. The last time this happened was when I was worried about the future and what my situation would be like a few years from now. I felt very anxious and devastated by these thoughts although I wanted to talk to someone about it, I was very scared and ashamed and I kept it all inside myself, which only made the situation worse. However, my mother noticed how crestfallen I was and started talking to me, giving me confidence to talk about my thoughts. In this case, I managed to learn that we shouldn't keep our problems to ourselves, but look for someone we trust to talk to and take a weight off our conscience, because even if communication doesn't solve our problems, it can give us a certain comfort, the that will improve our situation.

A direct comparison between two unlike things

Dmitry [639]

If they're unlike things - it would be a metaphor.
When it comes to similes - you use words such as like or as when describing things. and since it emphasizes "unlike" things - metaphor would be the way to go.
It's quite hard sometimes when it comes for deciphering the two if you're familiar with the rule - so just remember: Simile: like or as.
Metaphor: extreme exaggeration, or a comparison without using like or as.
I hope all is well, and you pass! (: Good luck, rockstar! (:
