Answer:

'I managed to complete the task, but I missed the deadline.'

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence with two or more independent clauses.

'I managed to complete the task.' is an independent clauses and sounds normal alone.

'I missed the deadline.' is also an independent clauses and also sounds fine alone.

The second and fourth answer don't even look like they would be a compound sentence because the second sentence is a complex sentence and the fourth is a simple one.

The second one is a complex sentence because it has one independent clause and one dependent one.

The fourth sentence is a simple one because it only has one clause, which is independent, if it weren't, it'd be a fragment sentence.

The third answer/sentence looks like it could be a compound sentence, but if we look closer, it's also a complex sentence because the first part of it is dependent, not independent.

Since you are writing a poem, how will you use metaphors?
Anna007 [38]

Metaphors are commonly used throughout all types of literature, but rarely to the extent that they are used in poetry.


In this way, metaphors are used in poetry to explain and elucidate emotions, feelings, relationships other elements that could not to described in ordinary language. ... An easy way to understand metaphor is to view a metaphor as a simile without the word "like". A simile compares two things in a clear fashion.


What is metaphor give example?

Metaphor Examples for Kids. A metaphor is a figure of speech that is used to make a comparison between two things that aren't alike but do have something in common. Unlike a simile, where two things are compared directly using like or as, a metaphor's comparison is more indirect by stating something is something else.


Definition: Metaphors are one of the most extensively used literary devices. A metaphor refers to a meaning or identity ascribed to one subject by way of another. In a metaphor, one subject is implied to be another so as to draw a comparison between their similarities and shared traits.
