Feedback

A simile uses like or as to compare.

Personification gives human traits to non-human things.

Allusion is a reference to a well-known person, place, or thing.

Hyperbole uses deliberate exaggeration for effect.

Onomatopoeia imitates sounds with words.

A metaphor directly states a comparison without using like or as.

Uses as or like to compare.

Personification gives human traits to objects.

The correct choice means taking on more than you can handle; the other options are unrelated.

It implies deliberate ignoring, not accidental looking or investigation.

Spill the beans = reveal secret; cat out of bag also means reveal, but spill the beans is the direct option.

Piece of cake = very easy; the others describe different ideas.

Kicking the bucket is a humorous way to say someone died.

Cat out of the bag and spill the beans both mean reveal; choose the exact phrasing.

Ball in your court = your turn to respond or act.

Arm and a leg = very high price; other options misstate cost.
