The correct answer is 1. an extended comparison.


A metaphor is a type of comparison - when you are symbolically comparing two or more things (without using words such as like or as), you are using a metaphor. If you extend that metaphor into several lines or stanzas within a poem, then you are using an extended metaphor, which commonly appears in epic poems such as The Odyssey or The Iliad.

A(n)__ is a comparison over the course of a poem.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The correct answer is C. extended metaphor.

Metaphor on its own is a comparison (without using words such as like or as). However, when that comparison spreads throughout a text or a poem, it is referred to as extended metaphor. 

Attitude is your tone; connotation refers to your thoughts and opinions about a particular word; figurative meaning is the use of figures of speech, such as metaphor, hyperbole, etc.

Read the following passage:
Virty [35]

Hello :)

I'm inferring that the answer is C because in the passage it states "I held on to my unforgiveness in the hopes that  by drinking this poison I might kill my enemy." basically stating that she was holding a grudge against this person and she hoped that it would hurt them, then she proceeded on stating "But soon it  was my insides that were burning.". metaphorically speaking her insides weren't actually hurting from any "poison", she is basically saying that she was the only one who was hurting from holding this grudge. I'm inferring that it is C because that answers makes the most sense.
