English

Answer: simile

Explanation:

My sister was <u>as</u> quick <u>as</u> a whip during the game.

      A simile is when two things are compared using like or as. In this case, your sister is compared to the speed of a whip using the word "as" - this means this is a simile.

      Well, then what is a metaphor? Put simply, a metaphor is when you say one thing is another. "This pillow <u>is</u> a cloud" or "your cheeks <u>are</u> pink roses."
