pychu [463]3 years ago

The correct answers are

Metaphor: She's an encyclopedia; We're just old news; I'm spreading my wings.

Simile: It's hard as steel; He's crafty like a fox; I'm strong like a bull

Explanation:

Both Simile and Metaphor are rhetorical figures used to describe a person, animal, object, etc. by making a comparison. The key difference between these two figures is that in SImile explicit comparison words such as "like" or "as" are used, while in metaphor the comparison occurs directly. This means, in the sentences "It's hard as steel", "He's crafty like a fox" and " I'm strong like a bull" there is simile due to the use of like and as, while in the rest of the options there is a metaphor because comparison occurs directly.

Vsevolod [243]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

<u>The Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.</u> He was the first Arabic writer to win the prize. Mahfouz was born in Cairo, Egypt, and many of his novels are set in that city. Which revision puts the underlined sentence into the active voice? The 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Naguib Mahfouz. In 1988, the Nobel Prize in Literature was given to Naguib Mahfouz. Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988. The Nobel Prize in Literature was won by Naguib Mahfouz in 1988.

Answer:

Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988.  

Explanation:

The underlined phrase features the passive voice. This type of voice causes the subject of the sentence to be receiving the action of the verb and not acting on the action of the verb. If we want to change that phrase to the active voice, we need to use the phrase "Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988." The active voice allows the subject to practice the action of the verb and who is actually acting according to the verb.
