Question

Which of the following is an example of a simile? A. Her stomach rumbled like an approaching train. B. The house moaned and groaned with pain. C. Clouds of vanilla cotton candy floated in the sky. D. Gentle whispers called from behind the wall. Mark for review (Will be highlighted on the review page)

Answer 1

The answer is option A "Her stomach rumbled like an approaching train." Smiles are two things being compared but using the words like or as, in this case they are comparing her stomach, and a train. (also having like in the sentence) Also remember the metaphors are also comparing two things but they do NOT have like or as, only similes.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Simile similar. Uses the words like or as to use a comparison to another object. 
some examples would be 
brave as a lion or as loud as a waterfall.
the answer to your question would be A
