Answer: Could be simile, metaphor, and personification

Explanation:

"her hair was like the wool of a mountain sheep,"

The author is describing the view of the protagonist on the girl's hair saying it is like the wool of a sheep. The author uses the word "like" to show that author is comparing two things to each other.

"Her eyes, a pair of brown-black beans floating in milk."

The author is describing the view of the protagonist on the girl's eye saying it is like a pair of brown-black beans floating in milk. The author didn't use the word "like" while comparing the two objects, showing metaphor.

"the downy grass and peeping weeds."

The grass and weeds are given the characteristic of a human to show a deeper level of explanation.

I would suggest saying, "I would make an excellent president because...." (List your reasonings). For "Helpful," you don't need to capitalize the first letter. Make sure you add in an "and helpful," since you're finishing off the reasons.

Canadente is spelled incorrectly. It should be "Candidate."

Lastly, I would suggest saying "have had experience...."
