Answer:

The author's use of the phrase, "brightly expressive as the twins of Leda," demonstrates the use of simile.

Explanation:

<u>Simile</u> is a figure of speech used by authors to make comparisons. Unlike metaphors, <u>similes</u> are direct comparisons, since they contain the words "as"or "like" to make the comparison.

Surprise sentence as verb
Nana76 [90]
Hello there! A sentence with a verb in it would be as follows:

I had to run so that I did not miss my bus.

The verb in this sentence would be the word “run,” because it shows an action that a person can physically perform.

An action verb is a word or phrase that shows action in what a person or object does. Given the definition, we can imply that any word that is a course of action somebody can perform is identified as a verb.

However, there are different kinds of verbs too. A linking verb is a word that links the predicate (the part of a sentence including the verb and stating what the subject does) with the subject (who or what the sentence is about). Words that are linking verbs include “like,” “be,” “is,” “are,” “was,” and “were.” A sentence containing a linking verb would look like this:

“She was so noisy, she sounded like the principal from Matilda!”

See the connection? In this sentence, the creator used the linking verb “like” to form a resemblance of the girl being loud with the principal from Matilda. Sentences with linking verbs can be effective depending on how they are used. If you need any extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
