Question

I need help! thanks :D

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

By saying that the cat WAS a mini-tornado, instead of saying she was LIKE a mini-tornado, the author uses metaphor :)

Answer 2

The answer is A.


This is because a metaphor is something that is being compared to another thing in the form of saying that it is (although with context you can see it is).

An example of a metaphor is “The plant was a ferocious beast.” Obviously, the plant isn’t actually a ferocious beast, but we can infer that the plant was overgrown and consuming the walls.

As opposed to a simile, which is basically the same thing as a metaphor, but using ‘like’ or ‘as’.

An example of a metaphor is “The plant was like a ferocious beast.”

Hope this helps :)
