Maybe you run fast, but if you race a cheetah or an ostrich, there is no hope of winning. What rhetoric is used?

A rhetorical device of contrast is used.

Contrast is a means of expression to arrange two parties with obvious differences, contradictions and opposites together for comparison. Contrast is to compare opposing meanings or things, or to compare two aspects of things together, so that readers can distinguish between good and bad and right and wrong in comparison.

The contrast technique in writing is to put the contradictory side of things, phenomena and processes under certain conditions, so as to concentrate them in a complete artistic unity and form a complementary relationship of contrast and echo.

The application of this technique is conducive to fully expressing the contradictions of things, highlighting the essential characteristics of the things being expressed, and strengthening the artistic effect and appeal of the article.
