Answer 1

Onomatopoeia, simile, another simile, and a metaphor

Step-by-step explanation:

onomatopoeia is the use of words associated with sounds, such as boom, thunk, bang, etc.

a simile is a comparison of two things using the words "like" or "as". an example being, "colorful as a rainbow" or "jumping like a frog".

Metaphors are comparisons of two things without the use of the words like or as. An example is, "The singer is a shining star". The singer is being compared to a star.
