Sure! Here are the matches for each type of figurative language with examples:

  1. Extended Metaphor: A comparison between two unlike things that extends over multiple lines or throughout an entire work. (Example: “Life is a journey; we are all travelers navigating the twists and turns filled with unexpected detours.”)

  2. Metaphor: A direct comparison between two unlike things without using "like" or "as." (Example: “Time is a thief.”)

  3. Simile: A comparison between two unlike things using "like" or "as." (Example: “Her smile was as bright as the sun.”)

  4. Personification: Giving human characteristics to non-human objects or abstract ideas. (Example: “The wind whispered through the trees.”)
