Question 4 • GCSS Horizons Literature and Composition IV

Which line contains a simile?

Answer
A
“Three Queens with crowns of gold”
B
“an agony / Of lamentation, like a wind, that shrills”
C
“And to the barge they came.”

Explanation

A simile compares two unlike things using words such as “like” or “as.” Choice B compares the lamentation to a wind with the phrase “like a wind,” so it contains a simile. The other lines do not make a direct comparison.
