Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's "The Perils of Indifference" was a speech that he gave at the White House on the 12th of April 1999. This speech pronounces his take on one of the harshest human traits that are indifference.

In his speech, Wiesel lists a number of tragedies, "the defeat of Nazism, the collapse of communism, the rebirth of Israel on its ancestral soil, the demise of apartheid, Israel's peace treaty with Egypt, the peace accord in Ireland". These historical events are supporting arguments, evidence for the claim that he made.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

i don't see any questions on your profile, currently, but i'd be happy to try and with any problems that you have, so long as i understand the problem myself.

a simile is first defined as a type of speech that uses one thing or phrase with comparisons to things of an unrelated kind, often in order to make a more vivacious description. so of the phrases above, only the last one (i swear she cast a shadow white as stone) would be considered a simile, as a shadow white as stone takes two unrelated things and uses them in an interesting way.
