Collected amount; the sentence is saying that dance costumes from over the years eventually busted out from her closet.
By explaining the great results of his proposal, he is preparing the reader to agree with him.
By writing that his proposal will end hunger and poverty, the reader is eager to hear his plan and is predisposed to agree with him. When the reader learns of his actual plan, however, the reader is moved to shock.
The overall effect is that other plans to end poverty and hunger -- which Swift dismisses as ineffective -- now appear more reasonable.
The answer to this question is ten pin.
A sentence not using like or as is what a metaphor is but i don't see a sentence anywhere so cannot be answered.
Hope this sort of helps.
