Decide whether the following is a simile, metaphor, or neither.
white as a white cow's milk
a. simile
b. metaphor
c. neither

The correct answer is A. Simile

Explanation:

The simile and metaphor are both figures of speech mainly used to make a comparison or create a relation between two elements or concepts, because of this, similes and metaphors are widely used in literary works and especially in poetry to create complex concepts or identify the similarities between two ideas. But despite simile and metaphor are similar, there is a difference between both, in the case of simile the relationship or similarity is established by using words such as "like", "as", "so" or any other that directly shows the relationship between the two elements or concepts being compared, on the opposite in metaphor these words are omitted. Considering this, in the case of the sentence "White as a white cow's milk" the figure of speech in this sentence is a simile considering two concepts (the white color and the cow's milk color) are being compared and the word "as" that establishes the relationship between both is used.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
