Which of these lines contains a metaphor?A. You are like a sun to me.
B. She offered him a hundred-watt smile.
C. Now is your final hour.
D. Like unto death was her countenance.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is B, because the smile isn't really made out of a hundred watts, but it is so bright so it is described that way. Metaphor is a form of comparison, but words such as 'like' and 'as' aren't used in it.

Answer 2

Answer:

From the above list, the example of a metaphor is 'She offered him a hundred-watt smile.' In this sentence, we compare her smile with a hundred-watt bulb, which means a bright smile. Her smile has a common characteristic with a hundred-watt bulb.

Further explanation

Metaphor is a figurative language that used to compare two different things that do not usually go together but has a common characteristic A metaphor makes an implicit or hidden comparison.

Here are examples of metaphor:

You are my sunshine.
Her voice is music to his ear.
Laughter is the best medicine.

In the first example, you are my sunshine. We use this comparison to describe an association of sunshine with that person.

The other figurative language use for comparison is a simile. Unlike metaphor, the simile compares the two things directly uses the word 'as' and 'like.' Here some examples of simile:

You are like a sun to me.
Like unto death was her countenance.

Can someone pls help me create a horror story? i want it to be like the anime "another" however the main character is the extra person.

Answers

Well it depends on the types of horror you'd like to create

If you want to create a psychological thriller-type of horror, try to tap into what people fear most deep down inside of them.

Not clowns, or heights, or sharks, but what would happen if you felt as if you were being watched and it turned you insane!

Other horror/fear could be manifested in the design of your characters.

Give them unsettling features like huge eyes and tiny pupils, sharp teeth, unnatural face or body proportions

Or simply do the classic horror with unnexpected action and killing!

There is so much to choose from.

In order to make your anime like "Another," you need to have the element of the "unknown." Create an entity, a phenomemnon, or event that is unexpected and still trying to be discovered or explained. Additionally, there is gore and very very detailed descriptions and depictions of deaths.
