When i watch you wrapped up like garbage sitting, surrounded by the smell of too old potato peels source: clifton, lucille. “miss rosie.” good woman: poems and a memoir 1969-1980. rochester: boa editions, ltd., 1987. poets. org. web. 9 june 2011. which of the following techniques is used in the excerpt? i. simile ii. personification iii. sensory imagery i only i and ii i and iii i, ii, and iii

I and III: Simile and sensory imagery

Explanation:

Simile and imagery are both figurative languages that are used to make the writing more memorable and significant. While similes are used to compare two or more elements using the word "like" or "as", imagery is a vivid, descriptive and sensory language that is used to appeal to our senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste or touch.

The excerpt uses both techniques as it describes the way someone was wrapped by making a comparison: "like garbage sitting", and the subsequent words are descriptive enough to appeal to our senses of smell and sight: "by the smell of too old potato peels."
