Answer:

A) Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered . . .

Explanation:

An easy way to explain and to spot a simile is the fact that a simile is actually a comparission, that is directly indicated by the words "Like" or "as", it is a clear comparission between two things in order to explain something or to give context and more meaning to a sentence, the only one from the options that actually is a comparission and it also includes the word "like" would be the first one A) Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered . . . so that would be the correct option.

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Breakfast was amazing, <u>but</u> I kept knocking stuff off the breakfast table. I couldn't work properly <u>because</u> I had stayed up the whole night typing away without stopping on the huge computer <em>like a beaver tirelessly building a dam out of wood</em>. I somehow managed to go to school where I had to write more boring essays. Finally, the bell rung to signal the start of lunchtime. A most heavenly time.

<u>Underlined</u>= conjunctions

Bold= descriptive words

<em>Italics</em>= figurative language

Explanation:

First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.

Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.

Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.

Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.

Hope this helps.
