1. He is so handsome..........
2. He is so handsome..........

Assistance with these two is appreciated.

Thank you.

First of all, you need to understand what a simile is. A good dictionary and/or grammar book will have examples for you. You need to compare 2 things that are not alike. sun and water, for example

A hyperbole is an exaggeration. "He died laughing" is an example.

Since we do not do your homework for y ou, try some and then feel free to repost for further help.

1. His tail wagged like a happy pendulum on a grandfather clock.

To come up with a simile, think of an object or action that shares a similar movement or appearance with a wagging tail. In this case, a pendulum on a grandfather clock moves back and forth, just like a wagging tail.

2. The old man petted him as tenderly as he would cradle a newborn baby.

For a simile that completes this sentence, imagine an action or situation that involves tender care and gentleness. A newborn baby is often cradled with care and tenderness, so comparing the old man's actions to that will create a suitable simile.

Now, for the hyperboles:

1. My lawyer is so smart, he could outwit a room full of geniuses.

To create a hyperbole, exaggerate a quality to an extreme extent. In this case, emphasizing the lawyer's intelligence, you can say that he is so smart that he can outwit not just one genius, but an entire room full of them.

2. My lawyer is so smart, he knows every law in the universe.

With hyperbole, you can make a statement that is clearly an exaggeration. In this sentence, you can emphasize the lawyer's knowledge by saying that he knows every law in the entire universe, which is impossible but serves to emphasize his wide range of legal expertise.

3. He is so handsome, he could make angels jealous.

To create an exaggerated statement, focus on the person's physical appearance. In this sentence, exaggerate the person's attractiveness by saying that he is so handsome that he could make angels, who are traditionally depicted as beautiful beings, jealous.

4. He is so handsome, he could stop traffic just by walking down the street.

For another hyperbole, emphasize the person's physical appearance and its impact on others. This sentence exaggerates the man's attractiveness by saying that he is so handsome that he could cause such a distraction that traffic would come to a halt just by walking down the street.
