Answer 2

Solution:

The following are the answers:

3. Option (D) Simile

Because 'as wise as' compares one object (teacher) with another object (owl) of another kind.

4. Option (B) Hyperbole

Because the sentence exaggerates that the movie is simply interesting.

5. Option (D) Personification.

It is human nature to beg and flowers do not beg in real life. Flowers are represented like humans.

6. Option (C) Oxymoron

Comedy and tragedy are terms with opposite meanings.

7. Option (D) Personification

The mouse is represented in human nature to peep and be excited.

8. Option (A) Consonance

The occurrence of the letter 'r' at the beginning of words.

13. Option (D) Simile

14. Option (B) Hyperbole

The sentence over exaggerates that there are no better players than them to the extent of in the whole galaxy.

15. Option (D) Personification

It is human nature to yell and alarm clocks do not yell. So they are personified to humans.

16. Option (C) Oxymoron

Serious and funny are terms with opposite meanings.

17. Option (C) Onomatopoeia

Fizzing is the sound created by aerated/carbonated drinks.

18. Option (A) Consonance
