“He watches from his mountain walls, And like a thunderbolt he falls.” A) These lines use a simile to show the power of nature. A simile is a comparison using like or as. Here the speed and power of a lightning bolt are compared to how he falls. 
“As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I'll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm, and the avalanche.” C) These lines give human abilities such as singing and language to nature Waterfalls, birds and winds are personified using the human trait - sing.
“I'm only a child yet I know we are all part of a family, five billion strong, in fact, 30 million species strong and we all share the same air, water and soil.” E) The passage of prose contains a metaphor that shows how we are all connected. The speaker says that "we all share the same" - this shows how we are all connected.
“I have seen flocks streaming south in the fall so large that they were flowing over from horizon to horizon in an almost continuous stream all day long.” D) These lines contain a hyperbole that creates a vivid image. A hyperbole is an over exaggeration. Here the speaker is over exaggerating how many birds he's seen when he says he sees them continuously all day.
“O if we but knew what we do When we delve or hew—Hack and rack the growing green!”B) These lines contain alliteration, which creates rhythm. Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound. Here is the repetition of the /w/ sound in the beginning and the /g/ sound at the end.
