Question 1 • FL-1001010-M/J Language Arts 1 A-CR

Which line from "Empire State Building" is an example of a metaphor?

Answer
A
I am ten million bricks of unshakable faith.
B
the World Trade Center Towers.
C
Wait here on my doorstep, Central Park . . .
D
the Fulton Fish Market for a slice of life . . .

Explanation

A metaphor describes one thing as if it were another, without using “like” or “as.” In “I am ten million bricks of unshakable faith,” the speaker presents the building’s bricks as faith, suggesting strength and confidence. The other choices name places or address Central Park, but they do not make this clear comparison.
