Decide whether the following is a simile, metaphor, or neither. We shall walk in velvet shoes. simile metaphor neither

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: C) neither.

Explanation: A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as." A metaphor is also a comparison but it is direct (it doesn't use the words "like" or "as"). The given sentence isn't an example of a simile, nor a metaphor, because it isn't comparing elements, when it says "velvet shoes" it is just describing the shoes using an adjective.

Answer 2
Answer: Neither, because the shoes could be made of velvet, in that case, then it is neither or if the shoes are not really made of velvet, it is a metaphor. it is definitely not a simile

You've come across a book in the card catalog that you think will be useful in your research of famous labor leaders.

The call number, the author's name, and the date of publication C. The call number, the topic, and the date of publication of a book D. The call number, the title, and the author's name

I agree it is D because in B and C the publication of the book doesnt really matter when trying to find a book. A and D are the last ones, but maybe there is another book with the same title and topic, so the authors name is veeery handy.
I think its D but in the end its your choice :) good luck!
