Question

John is extremely social. Whenever we go to parties together, he flies from person to person, busily making friends with everyone. Which figure of speech, or literary device, is the author using in the passage? A. personification B.simile C. allusion D. impiled metaphor

Answer 1

I think it is allusion because John isn’t really flying, but it puts a picture in your head of what he may be doing. None of the answers would make sense because:
personification is applying human qualities to an inhuman object. similes are comparisons using like or as. implied metaphors are comparisons that say something is something else that need to be implied.
