<h3>What is the difference between simile and metaphor?</h3>
Both simile and metaphors are types of figurative language that consist of comparing different things. The purpose is to show, with a colorful language, that one thing has certain characteristics that belong to another thing.
The difference between a simile and a metaphor is that the simile relies on the use of words such as "like" and "as", whereas the metaphor does not. For example, suppose you want to say someone has soft skin. You can compare it to cotton using either a simile or a metaphor:
- Simile: She has skin like cotton.
- Metaphor: He skin is cotton.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answers provided above are correct.

I think evidence or appeal
An epic simile is basically a regular simile, but it takes place over the course of several lines in poetry. There is no evidence in the excerpt provided that the correct answer could be a simile, so we’ll rule that option out.
The phrase starting in medias generally means that it’s a somewhat introduction. It can often introduce the story in the beginning, or be a great start if you want to start your story with a flashback. I’d say this is a good answer for the question, but just in case there’s a better one let’s go over the other options as well.
To invoke the muse would be to get inspiration for whatever it is you’re going to start doing. For example, let’s say you’re writing a story, and you have no ‘muse.’ Here you’d ‘pray to the muse gods’ to give you muse, or in another word, inspiration. This is clearly not the answer because the passage is not invoking any muse. They clearly already know which direction they’re taking with the story.
And finally, the use of epithets would be to specifically describing something and/ or someone. Sure, this passage caries descriptive detail, but that’s not its primary focus.
In conclusion, the correct answer to this question is b ) starting in medias res
