The rhetorical device used by Twain in this excerpt is the anecdote (C.).

<u>An anecdote is defined as an entertaining narrative, usually relating biographical events</u>.

This definition fits to the text because the story is an account of events which happened to the character in the past ("One winter's night, two years ago, I...")  and the narrative is comical enough to be considered for entertainement value ("I was carrying off a box of guns ... and he had got my corpse!").

Identify the following as a simile or a metaphor.
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Hey there! The answer is metaphor.

Explanation:

Similes always use the words like or as. For example, You were AS strong AS a ox. Metaphors never use these words. Like or as were not used in this sentence, so we know that the answer is metaphor.

What made gatsby great? support your answer here with textual evidence
Oduvanchick [21]
It’s the illusion of Gatsby that is great; what his life is like to a stranger looking from afar. He seems to have it all, giant house, handsome, big parties, etc. and he wants people to believe he is as great as his things. But given the end, we know he isn’t really great and he might have “it all” but without Daisy he has nothing (nothing that matters at least) and he realizes he’s isn’t great.
