Answer:

1. Onomatopoeia → The egg cracked open on the edge of the forest green dish, and the contents <u><em>sizzled</em></u> when they hit the red-hot pan.

2. Alliteration → George wanted to show Bonnie how much he loved her with breakfast in bed on her birthday.

3. Simile → He slid the spatula under the pancake on the other burner and flicked his wrist like he was waving a wand.

4. Personification → Shortly after, the bagel jumped up out of the toaster,...

5. Oxymoron → The sweet bitter cranberry juice poured into a glass was final touch.,

6. Metaphor →  George was no chef, but he thought it looked awfully good.

Metaphor is a figure of speech which compares two things in an indirect way without the use of <em>as</em> or<em> like</em>. e.g: George was no chef,...
