Question

Which of the following answer choices contains a metaphor? A. His skin was sandpaper. B. The sun sparkled like a diamond. C. She wanted to be like the birds and fly away. D. They felt free when they ran through the doors.

Answer 1

A, ´cause if it has like or as it´s a Simile.  Unlike a metaphor, a Simile draws things together with a like or as.  Hope it helps.  I might be wrong, I´m a bit of a blonde lol.  But I am making an A in this class, so I know something.

Answer 2
