To express a series of life lessons as well as providing an engaging story.
You didn't list options, but i think maybe you meant those options:
a. The look she gave her was as frigid as a winter wind.
b. He answered the questionnaire like a monkey with a typewriter
c. The old man who walked into the room, looked as tough as old boots
d. The words her friend spoke to her were as sweet as honey.
i think the best answer is b;) it is no mere comparison, but a trasfer of meaning from how the monkey behaved (carelessly) to the person filling in the questionaire
Personification is when you make it seem like a nonliving object is a living thing. For example: The wind blew her breath on the field. The wind is seemed to be a person blowing on a field.
A simile is when you compare two things, usually using the words LIKE or AS Quick like a fox.
Plot is the storyline of a writing.
Character is a person in the story, or what is used to describe the character.
