Answer 1

The bottle rolled off the table like a teardrop.The handshake felt like warm laundry.She hung her head like a dying flower.Arguing with her was like dueling with hand grenades

Answer 2

A simile is the comparison of at least 2 things but it uses the words “like” or “as.” Similes are commonly used in literature to describe something more in detail and it’s a very important literary term to understand.

An example of a simile is below.

He walked as slow as a turtle.

This is a simile because it’s a comparison of how slow the person is walking and comparing how slow the turtle is going. Since it uses the word “as,” we would call this a simile.
