Read the passage. tina beat me at the trivia game again. she is such a clever fox, she always wins! which figure of speech do the bold words represent? a. personification b. implied metaphor c. metaphor d. simile

The answer is C: metaphor.

A metaphor is a figure of speech or rhetorical figure in which two things that would not normally or literally be associated become related in order to expand on the figurative sense of the object that is being compared to something else (in this case Tina is compared to a fox). A metaphor is easily identifiable because it establishes the comparison directly without the use of comparative clauses such as: like (when the word “like” or any synonym is used in the comparison, then we are talking about a simile).  

- "the die is cast; i have consented to return if we are not destroyed. thus are my hopes blasted by cowardice and indecision; i come back ignorant and disappointed. it requires more philosophy than i possess to bear this injustice with patience. i have lost my hopes of utility and glory; i have lost my friend."
