  • Activity 3.2

3
What is a simile?
  • A comparison between two unlike things, using
    like or as, to make a vivid and emphatic
    description.
  • Example The dog was as big as 4 story building.
  • Example The meatloaf tasted like a pile of
    cardboard.

4
What is a metaphor?
  • A comparison between two unlike things, in which
    one thing becomes another.
  • Example The tears were a waterfall streaming
    down her face.
  • Example The car was a lion roaring down the
    track.

5
Why do we need to use Imagery?
  • Imagery- the use of figurative language and other
    descriptive language that appeals to the senses.
  • This allows the readers to see, taste, touch,
    hear or feel an object.

6
Example of Imagery
  • The hot July sun beat relentlessly down like an
    oven cooking a pizza, casting an orange glare
    over the farm buildings, the fields, the pond.
    Even the usually cool green willows bordering the
    pond hung wilted and dry. Our sun-baked backs
    ached for relief. We quickly pulled off our
    sweaty clothes and plunged into the pond, but the
    tepid water only stifled us and we soon climbed
    onto the brown, dusty bank. Our parched throats
    longed for something cool--a strawberry ice, a
    tall frosted glass of lemonade.
  • We pulled on our clothes, crackling
    underbrush, the sharp briars pulling at our damp
    jeans, until we reached the watermelon patch. As
    we began to cut open the nearest melon, we could
    smell the pungent skin mingling with the dusty
    odor of the dry earth. The smell was a rainbow in
    the sky so beautiful. Suddenly, the melon gave
    way with a crack, revealing the deep, red
    sweetness inside.
