Answer:
Two examples of metaphor extended in the book mentioned in the question above can be seen in the paragraphs:
- "I do not so much write a book as sit up with it, as with a dying friend. During visiting hours, I enter its room with dread and sympathy for its many disorders. I hold its hand and hope it will get better.
"
-
"People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subject inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all.
"
Explanation:
The metaphor is presented as a comparison of a subjective nature between two things that do not look alike, but that have related elements. The metaphor is made in a single sentence, but the extended metaphor, as the name already says, is the same subjunctive comparison that extends over many sentences within a paragraph and even many paragraphs.
In "The writing life" by Annie Dillard we can see two examples of metaphor extended in the following paragraphs:
- "I do not so much write a book as sit up with it, as with a dying friend. During visiting hours, I enter its room with dread and sympathy for its many disorders. I hold its hand and hope it will get better.

"People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subject inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all.
"
3 1/4 = 13/4
12 pounds × 13/4 cups per pound = 39 cups
Each bird seeder holds 3/4 cup. So, how many times does 3/4 go into 39?
39 ÷ 3/4 is the same as 39 × 4/3. 39 × 4/3 = 52.
Therefore, the volunteer can fill 52 bird feeders.
I believe it's punctuated correctly.
It has a comma before the conjunction (or "but") and it has a period at the end.
So the statement is true! :)
