Answer:

On January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded, killing its crew. In this excerpt, Reagan compares the crew to Sir Francis Drake. Drake was an English sea captain, explorer, slave trader and naval officer of the Elizabethan era.

Reagan argues that the crew is similar to Sir Francis Drake because they lived as astronauts and died as astronauts. Similarly, Drake lived as an explorer and died as an explorer aboard his ship.

Identify which is a simile, metaphor, hyperbole, alliteration or personification.
rodikova [14]

Answer: a: simile     b: alliteration    c: simile    d: personification    e: hyperbole   f: simile      g: simile      h: simile     i: alliteration  j: metaphor

Explanation: Similes are comparing unlike things with like or as. This means that a, c, g and h are similes. However on d it also uses the word as but it's personification. That's because personification is giving nonliving things human like characteristics. A chair cannot wait, but a human can therefore it's personification. Alliteration is the repetiotion of the beginning sound on a set of words. So because most of the words in b and i start with the same sound, it's alliteration. E is a hyperbole because a hyperbole is an exaggeration. The speaker of the statement doesn't actually have a million things to do, they're exaggerating which makes it a hyperbole. Lastly j is a metaphor because it compares 2 unlike things without using like or as, instead using was. Hope this helps :)
