Question

What example of figurative language is this? “She fired twice, and the Emperor and the Empress were dead before they hit the floor.”

a) Simile
b) Metaphor
c) Personification
d) Onomatopoeia

Answer 1

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not a simile beacuse a simile compares things using 'like' or 'as'

It's not a metaphor because it's not comparing two objects.

It's not a onomatopoeia because it's not referring to the sound of them hitting the ground or the bullet.

This doesn't seem like it uses any figurative language so I'm just going to say personification.
