Answer:
The figurative language is a simile.
It compares two actions. The sentence tries to compare the action of one to the action of the other.
Explanation:
From the given question, one will discover that the figurative language is a simile.
Simile is a figure of speech which compares two different things. It uses "as" and "like" in its comparison. In the sentence, we see the word "like" used to compare the way one was shooting apologies to how John Dillinger shoots out his bullet.
Simile is different from metaphor because of the use of "as" and "like". Metaphor is also a figurative language that compares things.

What are some similarities of poems and stories? Make sure you use your knowledge of the characteristics and structures of poetry to support you answer
Answer:
Poetry is similar to stories because poems actually can tell a story themselves. Poems and stories both often use figurative language, however, it's most often used in poetry. There are many different types of poems but stanzas are used to group together parts of the poem much how like paragraphs group together parts of a story. They both also can vary in length, long or short. A narrative or a ballad (two different types of poems) are most often used to tell a story of some sort.

One of America's most famous writers, Henry David Thoreau once said “It 's not what you look at that matters, it 's what you see.” What do you think he meant? Is it about perspective? Imagination?
Answer:
Explanation:
He meant that what do you take in from looking at something. So if you are absently watching a tree and don't do anything else, you might miss the fact that the leaves are moving with the wind, but they are held fast by the connection they make with the branch that holds them.
Think carefully about what that actually means. When fall comes, the branch lets go and the leaves float to the ground.
Even if you think there is a temperature mechanism that loosens the hold the branch has on the leaves, Someone or Something put it there so it could happen.
You excuse me if I let my religion show somewhat. I do think it is some sort of miracle that lets something like that happens. And Thoreau wouldn't disagree. Those Transcendental writers (like Thoreau) all saw miracles in the ordinary.
