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. Both similes and metaphors are based on comparisons; 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, 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.

Having or showing the ability to move coherently *

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

"Having or showing the ability to move coherently" is a definition for articulate.

Explanation:

We can reach the conclusion above through elimination. Integrity means having strong moral principles or the state of being undivided, whole. Shunt means shoving or pushing something, or an electrical conductor that joins two parts of a circuit. Enhancement means increasing the quality of something, improving it. Therefore, we are left with articulate. Articulate is often used to refer to someone who can speak well, fluently and coherently. But it can also refer to something that has joints or jointed segments that enable it to move well and coherently.
