The correct answer is the following: <em>option B. A simile is a direct comparison and a type of figurative poetic device.</em> A simile is a type of figure of speech generally used in poetry to make a comparison to show similarities between two different things. It is a direct comparison instead of an indirect one because it uses words such as "like" or "as" to make the resemblance between the two things that are being compared to each other. Poets use similes as a tool to convey their sentiments and thoughts in a vivid way.

I was driving my car through the drive away for about 20 minutes now and I had 1 more hour to go to be able to go to my favorite KPOP concerts(as I should) and I started speeding up and going faster when i tried to touch the break with my foot, it wouldn’t stop. The road was empty so I was lucky. I started going faster when I saw trees up ahead my direction so I started panicking. i tried unbuckling my seat but it was stuck so I screamed, the car started going faster and started lifting up and up every second. the car ended up going up and flying in the sky. it started heading to one of the tall trees and I started screaming more. the car ended up going fast and furious in the tall tree in the middle so I was stuck. I was very high up so of course I was scared to get out or even move. I started moving a little bit but the car started wiggling too. I saw someone from afar and I started squinting my eyes, IS THAT????? TXT I said. they started playing crown, blue hour, and all my favorite songs. more groups came in like ateez, Victon, itzy, nct, ace, stray kids, bts, wayv, etc, and they started dancing and singing to me. Never have I thought I would have my concert in a TREE!

Answer:

Setting is important because it helps us visualize where the characters “live” in the stories we read. It's also important because it gives us a head start in understanding the plot and making predictions about events in stories.
