Wheres the text? . . . . . .
English class is like receiving presents on your birthday
or
English class is like having to sit through a movie you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over.
<span>Similes are comparisons using
the words “like” or “as” in order to give readers a better sense of
understanding when there may otherwise be little understanding or not the
understanding a writer wishes to convey. What this means is that authors will
compare something that may not be known to readers to something that most
likely will be known in order to present the best image understood by the most
readers. Because not everyone may have
the same perspective of an English class as you, for instance, one way to
convey an idea of what English class is to you, the use of a simile would work well. If you enjoyed your English class you might
compare it to something you know your general audience enjoys and write
something like “English class is like receiving presents on your birthday”
because of how each day’s knowledge is wonderful surprising experience for
you. If you hated English class, you
might write something like English class is like having to sit through a movie
you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over. As you can see the use of similes make
writing more expressively.</span>
