A simple sentence is made up of an independent clause along with one single subject and a verb with a compliment.
In the first option, there is a single independent clause which is that MLK was an American ministers and activist. The subject is MLK and the verb and compliment are the years he was active.
The other options have multiple clauses.
1. <u>smilie</u> - A smilie compares things using like or as, in this case <em>"furnace was like a magnet" </em>
2. <u>personification</u> - When you personify something, you are giving it human like traits. A sweater can't actually hug someone, therefore it is being personified.
3. <u>metaphor</u> - Similar to a smilie, nut metaphors don't use like or as. The snow is being compared to a blanket.
4. <u>hyperbole</u> - Hyperboles are huge exaggerations on the truth. Obviously they won't sleep for a whole year, it's a light way of saying they are really tired.
5. <u>alliteration</u> - Alliteration is using the same letter of the start of the word. "winds whipped wondrously" all start with <em>W</em>.
