The simile used is "Momma's voice got strange, hissing like a snake."
This detailed simile, used when Wilona is enraged at Byron for playing with matches, underlines Wilona's rage.
The snake, in particular, is an animal associated with malice and wickedness, therefore comparing Wilona to a snake emphasizes how fed up she is with Byron and his pranks.
Only long after this do Daniel and Wilona resolve to take action against Byron once and for all.
<h3>What is a simile?</h3>
A simile is a device of speech that compares two things explicitly. Similes vary from other metaphors in that they highlight the similarities between two items by employing comparison terms like;
- "like,"
- "as,"
- "so," or
- "than,"
On the other hand, metaphors generate an implicit comparison.

Answer:
Jay turned off the current before taking apart the
outlet.
The current from the overhead wire caused sparks
to fly.
Explanation:
When words are spelled or pronounced in the same way but have different meanings, they are called homonyms.
One of homonyms is the word "current" which can mean:
- something happening at the present time
- a movement of body of water in a certain direction
- the flow of electrical energy
In the first answer, the outlet is a device whose purpose is to connect electrical devices to an electrical supply (plugging it in the socket). So, it's electrical current.
In the second answer, it denotes the moving of the water
In the third answer, it means that Todd's present roommate in neat.
In the fourth answer, since it comes from a wire and causes a spark, it denotes electrical current.
Finally, since Vanya is in the river, it denotes a flow of the water.
