1. The figurative language in the sentence "The thunder growled like a hungry beast" is a simile because it compares the sound of thunder to a beast using "like."
2. The metaphor version of "She was as bright as the sun" could be "She was a shining sun."
3. Personification means giving human traits or emotions to non-human things. An example would be, "The wind whispered through the trees."
In the sentence “Her coach’s words influenced her decision to try again,” the word “influence” most likely means to have an effect on or change her thoughts. A synonym for "contribute" could be "donate" or "add." In school, I might say, "I want to emphasize the importance of studying for my math test this week." By doing so, I hope my friends realize how important it is to prepare properly!
