Answer:

This quote adds credibility to the text because it is a personal account of a person who witnessed that moment.

Explanation:

The text above shows how immigrants were treated when they tried to reach the USA and how complicated, delicate and neglected their situations were by immigration taxes. However, the storyteller is reporting a personal moment where violence against immigrants was imposed on his family. As the narrator is reporting a moment that he lived, this quote has great credibility.

Choose one metaphor from this poem and explain why it is a metaphor, what the comparison means, and why you think the author cho
Vinvika [58]

"It is a gold coin dropped

down a drain in Heaven"

The comparison means that it's sort of like a golden coin that someone had dropped down a sink drain on an accident, but someone dropped it down the drain in heaven and it has now landed in the sky of the Earth.

I think the author chose to make this comparison because the sun is yellow and it is sort of a golden color and it is sort of common for things to be dropped down the drain. Therefore, it is like a golden coin going down the drain of heaven and into the sky.
