Answer 1

(Answer)
I am a rock

Answer 2

[ Answer ]

I am a rock

[ Explanation ]

A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two things together that are not normally meant to be compared. A person does not normally compare them self to a rock. It compares two things together without using words such as "like" or "as." In this case, the person is comparing them self to the rock without saying "I am like a rock" or "I am as still as a rock." They are saying they are the rock.
