Read the sentence from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza. I pushed a chair under it and after some instruction from my mother proceeded to create lightning in the room by turning the switch as fast as I could.

The author uses figurative language to

form a picture of flashing light.
compare himself to his mother.
give human qualities to the light.
imagine what the chair looks like.

try rewatching the movie a couple times and taking notes in between it will i promise, this may not be the answer you were looking for but it is just a suggestion, good luck with your project boo < 33

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.

i dont think u can but if you need tell me what language you speak and i will like to you

diane: )

yes he will one day hopefully lol
