Explanation:

A metaphor is a direct comparison of two unlike things without using "like" or "as". "Alexa is an open book" directly compares Alexa to an open book without such comparative words, fitting the metaphor definition. "The summer sun set in the sky" is a simple statement. "The chirping and chattering birds went silent" uses alliteration (repeated 'ch' sounds at the beginning of words).

Answer:

Alexa is an open book.
