Question

choose the meaning that matches the figurative language in the chart. \they need to get in the water before the sun fries them.\ water evaporates quickly on sunny days. the turtles lives are in danger from the heat. it is so hot that lily and josh can swim in the ocean. people can use the sun like a stove for cooking food.

Explanation:

The phrase "the sun fries them" is a metaphor. Metaphors compare two things without using "like" or "as". Here, it implies extreme heat. The option "It is so hot that Lily and Josh can swim in the ocean" doesn't match. "Water evaporates quickly on sunny days" is a literal statement. "People can use the sun like a stove for cooking food" uses "like" (a simile). "The turtles' lives are in danger from the heat" aligns as the heat (implied by the metaphor) endangers them.

Answer:

The turtles' lives are in danger from the heat.
