The answer would be true.

A metaphor compares two things without using words such as like or as.

A simile compares two things by using words such as like or as.

The answer would be true.

I hope this helps. :)

That's true. A simile compares things with like or as while a metaphor does not. An example would be something like "Her eyes were the sea and I was drowning." (hey that's actually pretty good I just made that up lol) If it was a similie it would say "Her eyes were like the sea" or "Her eyes were as blue as the sea"

Answer:

In my opinion, video games are bad for both kids and teenagers because the genre can affect mood, and the amount of time they have to play can affect grades. “86% of the parents said their teenagers did spend too much time playing video games” ... As kids continue to play video games, they can easily become addicted. Certain genres of video games, including violent games, can cause children and parents to argue and can contribute to worsening grades in school. Although, some video games fall into the educational genre and are good for young kids because they can learn new things. Some adults limit the number of times children play video games, while others don't, giving kids the chance to play whenever for however long. I believe that it is good to limit the amount of screen time kids have to play video games. Most kids would choose to play games late at night, which can cause them to be tired and sleepy in school. This can also cause grades to slip.

Daddy Dearest,

I hope you are doing fine and well. I know it's been a long time I have written to you and I sincerely apologized for that. I will try to make my letters as frequent as possible from now.

Anyway, I am writing to you to tell you about the recent difficulties I am facing these days. Daddy, it's hard being away from you. You know I always come to you more than I do with mom. And now, with you being so far away, I sometimes feel so alone and unable to clear my head. I miss your guidance and our "talks". I know I can talk about all these things with mom too, but with you, it's like a special bond.

The thing is, Dad, I have some trouble navigating what I should do with my life. You know I'm going to finish college soon and then comes the hard part of choosing or rather, making life decisions. And for that, I need your advice and talks. If you were here, it would have been so much easier. I am confused about what I have to do, worried about not doing the right thing, or even not choosing what's best for me or for the family.

Moreover, I also have to think about what you and mommy want me to do and expect of me. Why does life have to be so hard? Dad, when you were my age, what did you do? How did you know you have made the right decision?

I hope you can come home as soon as you can so that I can talk to you. Mommy and the whole family sends their love.

Hope to see you real soon. We miss you, Daddy.

With all my love,

Shirley.
