Answer:
People consider unemployed people worthless.
Explanation:
According to McWhirter, people usually show different attitude towards unemployed people. He says that people of society consider unemployed people worthless and useless human beings who don't have the right to be respected by others in the society which is a bad perception because they are also humans and have a self-respect and in my opinion every human must be respected.
It's certainly sensory. And it's figurative too. I think I'd pick figurative because the central piece of language is a simile. That's pretty good use of language when you compare the bobbing heads of flowers to helmeted soldiers.
Since you provided a time, I am taking a guess that it's online and the teacher or professor should usually give you a time that officially marks when it's due on January 3rd. If not, you could turn it in on January 3rd anytime, but not after 12:00 a.m. which would make it January 4th. I hope this makes since.
