the question is not properly ask. check your question and ask again.
The simile in paragraph 2 is that men are like ants and pygmies. Ants' and pygmy's actions may seem strong but in the end, all these actions have no purpose. It's an example of a person who lives for tomorrow and not for today, which is useless.
What is a simile?A simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two things. Similes differ from other metaphors by highlighting the similarities between two things using comparison words such as like, as, so, or that, while other metaphors create an implicit comparison.
This distinction is evident in the etymology of the words. Simile derives from the Latin word similis while metaphor derives from the Greek word metapherein. Like in the case of metaphors, the thing that is being compared is called the tenor, and the thing it is being compared to is called the vehicle.
Author and lexicographer Frank J. Wilstach compiled a dictionary of similes.

Answer:
Answer Below : )
Explanation:
Well, there are a variety of things you can have for breakfast. From the given options I don't think coffee is the smartest option. Although many people drink coffee in the morning it isn't the smartest option. Almonds are healthier but remember that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and your not helping your body by eating almonds. So the best would be Eggs. Eggs are undeniably healthy and delicious. If not a fan of eggs then Greek Yogurt. Greek yogurt is creamy, delicious, and nourishing

The boy was drug out of his room in the middle of the night. He didn’t know where he was going or who he was going with. He was searching for his dad but he was nowhere in sight to be found. He was thrown in the back of the dark black truck with a lot of other kids. He whispered because he was afraid to talk afraid he would get in even more trouble than he already was. He whispered, “Do you know where we are going?” No one seemed to hear him or ignored him. He was so scared without his parents there to be with him.
One day earlier...Jackson was 11 years old and his mom dropped him off at school. He was having a bad day at school and the principal called his mom to come to get him. His mom was really mad at him and she slapped him across the face and sent him to his room. He didn’t want to go to his room but he did anyway. He then came out of his room and he tried to find his mom, he then found her and she was out on the hammock and she was asleep. So he found a pillow and then put it over her face and she woke up and was screaming and fighting back but Jackson wasn’t giving up, and he killed her.
When Jackson realized what he had done he called his dad and said: “Mom’s not waking up and I don’t know what to do.” His dad said “call 911 and get an ambulance and I will be there soon.” So Jackson called 911 and told the operator that his mom didn’t wake up and my dad’s not home the operator said: “ok the ambulance is on the way.” Jackson’s dad came home and Jackson was nervous about what his dad was going to say. Jackson’s dad who’s name was named Charlee went to Jackson’s room and gave him a hug and said: “They are going to get an autopsy and see what happened to her.” Jackson’s face turned white as a ghost and he said “Okay.”

Answer:
The rest of my story
Explanation:
After about an hour or two, the phone rang and Charlee answered it and after about two minutes of silence Charlee said: “Ok thanks I will let you know after our talk.” Jackson ran out of the house and to Carter’s house (his best friend). He knocked on the door and when no one came to the door he knocked louder and louder until Carter’s mom came to the door. Jackson said, “Is Carter there I need to talk to him.” Carter’s mom nodded her head and pointed to Carter’s room. Before Jackson went into his room he knocked and said: “Can I come in?” Carter said “Sure.” Jackson sat down on his bed and he put his chin in his hands and said: “I have done something so terrible and I need help.”
Carter then said, “Hey I’m here if you ever need me.” Jackson said “Yeah I know. That’s why I always come to you.” They smiled at each other and Carter then said: “But I really need to know what you did so horribly wrong.” Jackson looked up and said “Ok but you have to promise not to tell anyone.” Carter said, “Ok I promise.” Jackson then told him the story about what had happened during the day and when Jackson got done telling the story Carter was spellbound and said, “Dude, what are you going to do?” Jackson replied with a sigh and said, “I don’t know what to do. That’s why I came to you so you could help me. You can, can’t you?” Carter then was the one who needed to sigh and he said: “I don’t k...”
Jackson cut him off before he was finished and he said, “Fine I’ll do it myself.” Carter said, “Yeah, and what’s that?” And Jackson said, “First I have to get rid of him.” He pointed to across the road to his house and Carter was like “Ok but don’t say I didn’t tell you.” Jackson said, “Thanks anyway for Nothing.” Jackson then ran across the road without looking and a truck almost ran him over Jackson then flipped the truck driver the middle finger and said, “HEY WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING.”
When Jackson went back to his house he went to the drawer and found a kitchen knife and he went to find his dad when he couldn’t find him he then went to his room to lay down and he put the knife under his pillow and that was when he heard the loud banging on the door. He went to the door and that was when the 4 people came bursting through the door and put him in a chokehold and dragged him out the door and threw him in the back of the dark blue van.
