Answer:

Simile

Explanation:

Similes use like or as in them.

Simile definition: A figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid.

Example: She runs as fat as a cheetah!

Foreshadowing definition: Being a warning or indication of (a future event).

Example: Next week there is suppose to be a big storm, they want us to find cover by Thursday.

Metaphor does NOT use like or as in them.

Metaphor definition: Compares two things without using like or as.

Example: She is an angel.

Hyperbole definition: An extreme exaggeration of something.

Example: It took me 4 days to finish my homework!

Symbolism definition: An artistic and poetic movement or style using symbolic images and indirect suggestion to express mystical ideas, emotions, and states of mind. It originated in late 19th century France and Belgium, with important figures including Mallarmé, Maeterlinck, Verlaine, Rimbaud, and Redon.

Hey there!

The answer to your question is <u>simile</u>

A simile is a comparison between two objects using the words "like" or "as"

In your sentence, it says "She runs <u>as</u> fast as a cheetah."

They are comparing her running speed and the speed of a cheetah, and they used the word "as"

<u>Other notes:</u>

Personification ~ <em>Giving an object or animal human-like qualities</em>

Foreshadowing ~ <em>A technique an author gives to hint about future events</em>

Metaphor ~ <em>A direct comparison of two objects</em>

Simile ~ <em>a comparison between two objects using the words "like" or "as"</em>

Hyperbole ~ <em>an exaggerated statement</em>

Symbolism ~ a technique that uses symbols or other things to express hidden meanings

Hope this helps! Good luck and have a great day!

Why does Eumaeus visit the palace?
Alja [10]
Eumaeus visits the palace to tell Penelope about her son's return.
Telemachus, Odysseus and Penelope's son, was far away from home with Pisistratus, Nestor's son. The goddess Athena finds him in Sparta and tells him that he must return home to Ithaca, or else Penelope is going to marry someone and lose their home to another kingdom. However, she tells him that he must go to Eumaeus first, who is to inform Penelope that her son has come back home.
