Question

Select the TWO metaphors: * "I AM a laptop." "Like colorful snowflakes..." "Books started swirling around becoming a tornado." "My laptop grinned at me." "Come on Cameron, you can compute like a laptop."

Answer 1

"I am a laptop." (Metaphor)

"Books started swirling around becoming a tornado." (Metaphor)

"Like colorful snowflakes..." (simile)

"Come on Cameron, you can compute like a laptop." (simile)

"My laptop grinned at me." (personification - giving an object human-like characteristics)

Metaphors are like similes, but without the words 'like' or 'as.' Metaphors sound literal, even though they are obviously just a comparison.

Final answer: First and third quotes.
