Question

1. the following line from the poem is an example of which literary term? (you can look up the definition of each term if you need): \glittering in the sun like dazzling gems on a necklace\ simile metaphor personification

Explanation:

A simile is a figure - of - speech that makes a comparison using the words "like" or "as". The line "Glittering in the sun like dazzling gems on a necklace" uses "like" to compare something glittering in the sun to gems on a necklace. A metaphor makes a direct comparison without "like" or "as", and personification gives human qualities to non - human things. This line does not fit those definitions.

Answer:

A. simile
