What are you looking for like definitions or in your own words
The correct answer is A. I only. Which is simile.
In the excerpt, the lines "<span>wrapped up like garbage" is an example of simile. This is because the word "like" was used to compare a thing into another. So the correct answer would be Simile. The excerpt didn't contain personification or sensory imagery. Just simile. I hope this answer helped you. </span>
Lol here's some advice: always be yourself, no matter what. don't ever change who you are for anybody :)
