drag and drop each example of figurative language into the correct category

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answers are

Metaphor: She's an encyclopedia; We're just old news; I'm spreading my wings.

Simile: It's hard as steel; He's crafty like a fox; I'm strong like a bull

Explanation:

Both Simile and Metaphor are rhetorical figures used to describe a person, animal, object, etc. by making a comparison. The key difference between these two figures is that in SImile explicit comparison words such as "like" or "as" are used, while in metaphor the comparison occurs directly. This means, in the sentences "It's hard as steel", "He's crafty like a fox" and " I'm strong like a bull" there is simile due to the use of like and as, while in the rest of the options there is a metaphor because comparison occurs directly.                                                                                                          

                                                                                                                                                 correct me if im wrong

Answer 2

She is an encyclopedia; we are only yesterday's news; I am spreading my wings. It is as tough as steel, he is cunning like a fox, and I am powerful like a bull.

What is Figurative language?

Simile and metaphor are rhetorical devices used to compare one thing to another in order to describe a person, animal, object, etc.

In contrast to metaphor, when a comparison is made indirectly, a simile uses comparison terms like "like" or "as" to make an unambiguous comparison.

This indicates that the usage of like and as creates a simile in the phrases "It's hard as steel," "He's crafty like a fox," and "I'm strong like a bull," whereas the use of comparison directly creates a metaphor in the other possibilities.

Therefore, She is an encyclopedia; we are only yesterday's news; I am spreading my wings. It is as tough as steel, he is cunning like a fox, and I am powerful like a bull.

The poem is not literally about fighting lions, yet the speaker never reveals what the task ahead of her is. Why might the poet have made this choice? in Song of Bravery.

Answers

The poet made this choice so that all readers of the poem can relate with it and think of the task as whatever it is they have to face in their own lives.

What is the task in the poem?

"Song of Bravery," by Joyce Sidman, is a poem about making mistakes, failing, and yet keeping on living and trying one's best. The speaker mentions the possibility of never truly becoming the best, the strongest, the greatest, but she also mentions she will continue the face the task ahead of her.

She refers to such a task as "to face the lions," an allusion to people who had to fight lions in arenas in ancient Rome. Of course, this is not meant literally. To face a lion is a way to say someone will face some difficult task.

And what could that task be? The speaker does not tell us, and the reason for that is probably so that readers can relate with it. Whatever it is that we, the readers, have to face, we will do it bravely, like the speaker.

Today, we are living on a planet that is frequently changing. Some of these changes are caused by natural processes, but many believe these changes in climate are a direct result of human activity. Luckily, we have the power to make small changes to reduce the impact on our planet. Every day, we throw away garbage that releases harmful toxins into the air, land, and water. One way you can prevent harmful pollutants is by composting. Composting is the process by which organic materials, such as fruit, vegetables, eggshells, tea, and many other foods, are broken down, recycled, and used as a fertilizer. As a fertilizer, compost provides rich nutrients to the soil. It is very beneficial to your gardens, as it nourishes your plants and flowers and helps them bloom more frequently. It is very easy to start composting. All you need is a wooden or plastic compost bin and the organic matter to put in it! Composting helps the environment because it reduces the amount of waste in landfills, reduces pollution, and prevents soil erosion. Take a stand, and help make the planet we live on a healthier place.

What is Figurative language?

Figurative language, which deviates from the usual order and meaning of words in order to communicate a complex meaning, colourful writing, clarity, or emotive comparison. It refers to something without actually declaring it by using a regular sentence.

Figurative language refers to wording that deviates from the technical meaning of words in order to convey a message or make a point. Originally from the Old French term "figuratif," which means "metaphorical," this definition originates to the middle of the nineteenth century. Writers use figures of speech like the simile to construct figurative language.

The passage's figurative interpretation of the moon is "soothing feelings," since the moon's description alludes to peace and tranquilly.
