Which of the following sentences from the text contains an example of metaphor? (1 point) He looked like one of those ballerinas

that dance just on the tips of their toes. Momma's horrible snake-woman voice came out again and said, 'If you ever, ever . . . ' Byron's hand was shaking and he was crying like a big baby but his finger still stayed out. Right when the fire was going to give him a good roasting Joetta ran across the room and, sounding like that Little Engine That Thought It Could, she blew the match out before it got him!

Momma's horrible snake-woman voice came out again and said, 'If you ever, ever . . . '

A metaphor is a comparison of two things without using like or as. In this sentence Momma's voice is being compared to that of a snake-woman. It is showing her disappointment in whatever her child did. The other options are all similes. They compare two things, just like a metaphor, but they use the word "like" which is indicative of a simile.
