Which of the following figures of speech uses words such as like or as to make a direct comparison between to dissimilar things?
a. cliche
b. simile
c. personification
d. metaphor

b. Simile.

Explanation:

Simile is a figure of speech used in literary works that compares or gives comparison to two dissimilar things. It is also one of the most famous and common figurative language used by writers. The direct comparison of dissimilar things using the words "like, as" gave it an interesting way of describing things. For eg, his head is as hard as a rock, his skin is rough like a rough field.

Cliche is the overuse of a word, which lacks original thought. Eg, all for one and one for all, all that glitters is not gold etc.

Personification is the giving of human traits to inanimate things. Eg, the winds sucked the life out of me, Love captured his heart etc.

Metaphor is use of a word to describe a thing but which is not really plausibly applicable in real life. Eg, I am not fishing for compliments, I am broken etc.

answer: this is not a good thesis statement because a thesis statement is not supposed to have questions in it. a thesis states your position on your topic. a question cannot state anything because it is not a statement. a question is a great lead in to a thesis, but it can't be the thesis.
