Answer: Hyperbole

Explanation:

Even though "as" is in the quote, your not really comparing yourself with your torn heart, so it's not a simile. However, this is an exaggeration because your heart was not torn from your body physically this is just how you felt.

I hope this helped!

VladimirAG [237]

The correct answer is A.

<em>Quotation marks</em> ( quotes, speech marks, inverted comas, talking marks) are punctuation marks used in pairs to set off direct speech, a quotation or a phrase. The pair consists of the opening quotation marks and closing quotation marks.

Quotation marks set apart a direct quotation. An example: My mother said <em>"don't do it"</em> when I wanted to enter her room.

Quotation marks are also used to mark a title, a direct speech or a square quote.

Write a narrative essay on a time you were truly grateful for something
Nadusha1986 [10]

Gratitude is an essential feeling for our tranquility and happiness. That's because when we are grateful for something it means that a good and prosperous element has been added to our lives, making us happier.

My biggest memory with this feeling happened a few years ago, when my family was going through a lot of financial problems and the situation at my house was not good. We were all very stressed, but happy to be able to count on each other. At that time I had been looking for a job across the city and I couldn't get a call for any of them. I was very sad and my mental health was very shaken because I did not see the solution to my problem.

However, after a long wait, I managed to find a job. This was such a good time in my life that I felt the fullest gratitude I had ever felt before. The job, even if it paid me little, would allow me to help my family and still help me to calm my mind.

That way I was able to understand exactly what gratitude was and realized that we don't need great things to happen in order to be grateful, but we can be grateful for small things that positively impact our lives very strongly.
