Read this passage from "the nose"
"in heaven's name, why should such a misfortune befall
me? if i had lost an arm or a leg, it would be less
insupportable, but a man without a nose! devil take it! -
what is he good for? he is only fit to be thrown out of the
window. if it had been taken from me in war or in a duel, or
if i had lost it by my own fault! but it has disappeared
inexplicably. but no! it is impossible," he continued after
reflecting a few moments, it is incredible that a nose can
disappear like that -- quite incredible. i must be dreaming,
or suffering from some hallucination, perhaps i swallowed,
by mistake instead of water, the brandy with which i rub my
chin after being shaved. that fool of an ivan must have
forgotten to take it away, and i must have swallowed it."
- nikolai gogol, "the nose"

Chicago by carl sandburg hog butcher for the world, tool maker, stacker of wheat, player with railroads and the nation's freight handler; stormy, husky, brawling, city of the big shoulders: they tell me you are wicked and i believe them, for i have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys. and they tell me you are crooked and i yes, it is true i have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again. and they tell me you are brutal and my reply is: on the faces of women and children i have seen the marks of wanton hunger. and having answered so i turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and i give them back the sneer and say to them: come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning. flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job, here is a tall bold slugger set vivid against the little soft cities; fierce as a dog with tongue lapping for action, cunning as a savage pitted against the wilderness, bareheaded, shoveling, wrecking, planning, building, breaking, rebuilding, under the smoke, dust all over his mouth, laughing with white teeth, under the terrible burden of destiny laughing as a young man laughs, laughing even as an ignorant fighter laughs who has never lost a battle, bragging and laughing that under his wrist is the pulse. and under his ribs the heart of the people, laughing! laughing the stormy, husky, brawling laughter of youth, half-naked, sweating, proud to be hog butcher, tool maker, stacker of wheat, player with railroads and freight handler to the nation. which type of figurative language does the poet use most often in "chicago"? a. rhyme b. simile c. metaphor d. personification
