English

Answer:

1. Simile; 2. Metaphor; 3. Hyperbole; 4. Personification

Explanation:

A simile makes a comparison between two things and normally uses the word "as" or "like" to indicate the two things that are being compared. In the first sentence, the subject is being compared with a snake.

A metaphor is also a comparison but it is implicit and the things are not related but share some characteristics; in this case, the <em>early bird </em>characteristics could mean many things, such as not being able to stand for herself or her fragility, among many others.

Hyperbole is a device used to exaggerate things through the language; in the third sentence, the exaggeration comes when the speaker mentions how thirsty he is and the amount of water he could drink.

Personification gives objects characteristics of alive beings, specially humans. In the sentences, the subject (movies) cannot do the action "fly off" unless it is through personification.

Write an email to your friend, telling your friend about the important decision you had to make.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Dear Ash,

Today, I made the worst decision in the world. Today I went to my aunt to amend our relationship, but it was for naught... she wanted nothing to do with me, I also tried to amend my relationship with Derek but all he wanted was to be my boy.friend, I then felt so bad for even breaking up the relationships we had with them... but you must understand that I didn’t mean to ruin the relationships... I hope you don’t regret being friends with me... I wish you well.

Yours truly -Lilly♥
