Answer 2

are you sure

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion in my response. Let me correct that:

A simile is different from a metaphor in that a simile explicitly uses "like" or "as" to compare two things, while a metaphor makes a direct comparison between two unlike things without using "like" or "as."

Answer 4

so the answer is a simile uses like or as

Answer 5

Yes, that is correct. One key difference between a simile and a metaphor is that a simile uses "like" or "as" to compare two things, while a metaphor does not use these words.
