In the short story ‘the Deep’ by Anthony Doerr, Tom is a young man with a serius heart disease that might not live longer.
The metaphors and similes are used in the story to show how Tom’s emotions got his best every time he was with Ruby. Because of his disease, he has been forbidden to have any excitement in life. When he meets Ruby it all changes, for she causes great exciting effects on him so he faints and is advised to think of something blue everytime to avoid the faints. This color became a metaphor to him to calm him down as a "calming sea in the turmoil of life".
Tom would feel "as if the whole sky was rushing through the open door into his mouth" or that "his blood was storming through its lightless tunnels" as metaphors showing his great strong feelings for her before his faintings or that his life only had meaning or 'light' because of her. Also a simile used, for example, when "he was trembling like a needle to a pole" showing his excitement in their adventures.
It can be understood by the use of the figurative languages (making impossible comparisons) in the story that he started to enjoy life and his best self only with her around. He would not care about anything else.

The question above is intended to analyze your writing and reading skills. For this reason, it is not right for me to write an essay for you, but I will show you how to write it.
First, you should read "A Sound of Thunder" and "Nethergrave," understanding the two texts and deciding which one is best, in your opinion, and what reasons make you come to that opinion.
After this reading, you can write your essay as follows:
- Introduction: Present the background information for the story you will present in the essay and then show your thesis statement. The thesis statement is your take on this story, where you will show that it is better than the other.
- Body: Write two paragraphs. In these paragraphs, you will show the reasons that make you believe that the story you chose is better than the other story. You will have to show information from both texts to verify your arguments.
- Conclusion: End the essay by showing your final thoughts about the story, summarize your arguments, and reinforce your thesis statement.
