Answer:

Where are the examples?

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't see the examples so I'm giving you definitions and examples.

Metaphor: Comparison of two unlike things without using like or as

Ex. My sister's room is a pigsty - comparing the room to a pigsty

Simile: Comparing two things using the words "like" or "as"

Ex. My brother eats like a pig - comparing two things using like or as

Personification: Giving human characteristics/feelings to non-human things

Ex. My alarm clock yelled at me to get up - using human characteristics to describe a thing

Hyperbole: Exaggerated phrases/sentences not to be taken literal

Ex. Its raining cats and dogs outside!
