PLEASE HELP WHOEVER ANSWERS ALL GETS BRAINLIESTS
METAPHOR, SIMILE, AND PERSONIFICATION
Figurative language is language that is not meant to be taken literally. Authors use figurative language to paint an interesting picture for readers.
A simile compares two things using the words like or as. (He ran like an old greyhound. She was as quiet as a deer.)
A metaphor compares two unlike things by saying one thing is another. (The dinner was a three-ring circus.)
In personification, a nonhuman subject is described with human characteristics. (The stars were dancing on tiptoes.)
DIRECTIONS: Read the sentences below. Then, write which kind of figurative language appears in the sentence.
EXAMPLE:
As I read a book beneath the tree, the leaves whispered kind words overhead.
This is a personification because leaves cannot actually whisper - they don’t have vocal cords.
The tree was a skeleton against the starry sky.
Her eyes are as green as emeralds.
The school of fish was a shimmering rainbow.
The door groaned when I opened it.

Read the sample student claim. if university education was made free for everyone, i would be thrilled because more people would go to college and pursue successful careers. why is this not an effective claim? check all that apply. it is a topic with two or more viewpoints. it does not contain the writer’s opinion. it is simply a personal preference or feeling. it does not present supporting evidence. it cannot be supported with logical reasons.
