Which of these are metaphors? check all that apply. she is the sun of my sky. they fought like cats and dogs. the child is as quiet as a mouse. her coat was as black as coal. life is a roller coaster.

-- This sentence is a metaphor because it does not use "like" or "as." If the sentence read "She is LIKE the sun of my sky," it would be a simile. Without it, the sentence is a metaphor.

The child is as quiet as a mouse.
