    Tall house looming against the black dark sky.
    I think that’s a metaphor because it says the house going into the sky when it’s not actually doing that. It’s just still as a statue.

    Similes:
    1)The gate squeaked like a mouse:
    Is a simile because I isn’t a mouse who made the voice
    2)it is immposible to break of with a cliff so that’s a metaphor.

  5. Murtaza A.

    Some metaphors are:breaking the foot off a cliff,it a lead a path into water.Forcing her through.
    They could’ve used afraid as a newborn baby.
    They also could’ve used a path whispered to be effective

    “breaking the foot of a cliff” you can’t break the foot of a cliff because a cliff doesn’t have a foot.

    “Lead a path in water.” This is a metaphor because you can’t just go and lead a path which is in the
    water 💦

    ‘They seemed to move themselves’ Because you need to control your feet they don’t move on their own.

    “forcing her through” Nothing can force you through anything in real life.

    SILVER CHALLENGE
    The examples of figrative the text could have used are:

    The girl who broke the foot of the cliff
    The path was waiting patiently in the water ready to be walked on

  8. Farhaad N.

    Breaking the foot, off your cliff, this is a metaphor because the cliff does not have a foot.

    Lead a path into water, you cannot do that physically unless in myths and legends or so.

    Forcing her through, you cannot do that physically, once again myths or legends or so.

    Gold/Conjunctions :)
    The gate uncomfortably welcomed the timid little girl with the darkness overcoming her braveness, frightening and taking control of the courageous girl’s legs. She had no control. She turned around and saw a pitch black figure with glowing crimson eyes that would stare into your soul…
    To be continued :D

  21. Yussuf S.

    The moonlight doesn’t make a path on the sea therefore it is a metephor.when it says the door opened by itself doesn’t really describe how it opened therefore you will need a simile.When it says Fliss was afraid thy could add a simile of how and why he was scared.It has loomly and then it has a comma and then it says blackly this is the best description in the text because it is a adverb and also it makes the reader enjoy it more because it is describing more.ByYussuf

    Bronze challenge
    Breaking the foot of a cliff
    You can’t break ur foot if your on a cliff

    The gate squeaked like a mouse in pain.
    A gate can’t even squeak so that means it’s personification

    Sheza👻

  23. Abdirahman M.

    “Looming against the sky”
    This is personification because looming is a human characteristic of a human which houses cannot do.
    “Breaking the foot of cliff”
    This shows personification because the cliff does not have a foot which shows characteristics of people.

  24. Marihah T.

    This is a metaphor because waves can’t actually break the foot of a cliff.

    Similies:

    1) “The gate squealed like a mouse in pain.”

    Bronze challenge

    ‘Breaking the foot of the cliff’
    This is impossible because forest of all a cliff dose not have any human features like us and secondly nobody can break the cliff.

    ‘It lead a path in the water’
    I also think that this is impossible because water dissent have a path on it.

    It is not possible to do if you even tried.
    ‘Lead a path on the water’s.
    You can’t do that because it’s impossible.

    Waves were breaking.
    Moonlight made a silver path on the water.
    It was a tall house,looming blackly against the sky.
