Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A simile is a word that compares words in a sentence. You can usually tell if a simile is

present in a sentence when you see the words as or like.

Simile: Don ate his salad like a vacuum cleaner.

His arms were weak and felt like noodles.

The thunder was as loud as fireworks.

Like a simile, a metaphor compares words in a sentence; however, instead of saying that

one thing is like something else, a metaphor actually makes one thing become something

very different by renaming it. A metaphor can sometimes use words like is, are, or was (and

other words) to signal that a metaphor is present. However, a metaphor never uses the words

like or as to compare.

Metaphor: The smoke was cotton balls billowing from the chimney.

You are my hero.

The sun was a furnace.
