Answer:

The wind is a fan blowing leaves everywhere.

Explanation:

First of all, it is important to understand what a metaphor is. A metaphor is a figure of speech that is used to compare two things that, though they may not be alike, but they have something in common or behave the same way or they have similar traits/characteristics. The wind blows through the trees is likened to a fan that blows things around. They are not alike, but they both use air to move things around or blow things in different directions.

Which three parts of this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note" contain hyperbole?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

There are three hyperboles in this excerpt from "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note":

  • "They'll flock in droves". Here the word flock used as a verb means to gather together as a flock (word used to refer to a group of animals, specially birds). Therefore, the phrase is an hyperbole because it contrasts the idea of "a group of animals in a rush" to refer to "these rich Londoners" so as to cause a sense of exaggeration.
  • "I'm a made man forever". The use of the word "forever" here is used to add emphasis to the fact that the character will be a made man as long as he lives: everyone knows nothing lasts forever.
  • "In less than twenty-four hours London was abuzz!". Here the phrase "less than twenty-four hours" is employed to highlight how fast it took the rich Londoners to hear about the mine selling.
