Which of the following is correct? select all that apply. similes and metaphors both compare one thing to another. metaphors are direct comparisons. all similes use the word like. metaphors make indirect comparisons using words like as.

Metaphors are direct comparisons between two unlike things. We often hear them without thinking about them because many metaphors are so common. We understand their implied meaning because of the way the words are paired. [A sad fellow stands before the image of a broken heart.] When your friend tells you he has a broken heart, we know that he doesn't mean he's going to the hospital for heart surgery. When we say someone barks an order, we are comparing his tone with that of a barking dog. [The middle man in a line of soldiers says, "Woof, woof."] The implication is that his tone is serious, to the point of being intimidating.

Similes are also comparisons, but they’re different from metaphors because they do not use of the word “like” or “as.” Similes also can be found in our everyday speech. [A log with a knot on it rests in the grass.] If your friend says to you: "Hey, don't sit there like a bump on a log. Come and help me," she’s comparing your inaction to a piece of bark that can't move.

The answer is A and B
