Neither, a metaphor would be like "I'm so hungry that I could probably eat an elephant," while a simile would have 'like' or 'as' to describe something.

The correct answer is neither. The sentence "We shall step upon white down" is neither a simile nor a metaphor.

Similes and metaphors are figures of speech mainly used in literature to provide a special effect to a piece of writing. <u>Both similes and metaphors are based on comparisons</u>; however, there are differences between them. A simile compares things using the words "like" or "as". An example of a simile is: "She was as white as snow". On the other hand, a metaphor states a comparison in a direct way using the verb "be". "Her eyes are a poem" is an example of metaphor. In that way<u>, the sentence "We shall step upon white down" does not establish a simile nor a metaphor because it does not include a comparison between two things</u>.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

they built camps in order to increases what they call the 'master race' and to fit in with Nazi philosophy and nazi life, they basically wanted to keep their 'master race' clean and pure, wince there were so many of them they killed a bunch to speed the process up, they  rounded up many thousands of communists, socialists, church leaders and anyone else who might oppose the Nazis. and sent them to the camps. at first the holding place for them was local prisons but there wasnt enough space to hold them and that system was inefficient the nazis found a solution by establishing a large camp to hold the prisoners that is why they built them.
