B. Analysis
What are things being compared in the lines assigned to Group 1?
What are the signal words used in the lines? When lines shows a comparison of two
things by using the words as and like, then it is a Simile.
In sentence 1, Group 2, how does the author describe his/her brother’s bedroom? What
does it mean? When the line states a direct comparison of two unlike things that have
something in common-then it is a Metaphor.
What human qualities are given to the wind in the 1st line for Group 3? to the moon?
Does wind really can talk? or moon can hide? Where does the moon go when it hides or it
is not visible at night? How does a moon look like when it is Full Moon? Moon has 8 Phases and
you will learn them during the 4th Quarter in Science. When inanimate objects were given human
qualities in a line of a poem, then the author uses a figurative language called Personification.
Let’s take a look at the 4th Group’s lines. Is it possible to eat a horse if you are hungry?
What does the author mean by that? Could you tell how hungry the author is?
Is it possible to have homework as heavy as ton? What should you do if you have lots of
assignment? Would you just play when you reach home from school or what? Where should you
do your assignment? Is having a ton of assignment and eating a horse is possible to happen? It
shows exaggeration to stir up emotion or response from a reader. This figure of speech is called
Hyperbole.
