Drag and drop each example of figurative language into the correct category.

English
1 answer:
pychu [463]3 years ago
7 0

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.

When we saw him he was drenched because he _________________________.
lord [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. i and ii.

Explanation:

You need to use past tense (found in i and ii) because the action took place in the past - we saw him doing something in the past (in this case, cycling). Therefore, this rules out iii. because it's a present moment.

However, if it's his routine (he cycles only in the rain), then iii. would also be correct - so it really depends on how you interpret the sentence (it is a bit ambiguous).
