1. For question 1, the correct answer is D. Simile. A simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things using the words "like" or "as." In the sentence, the comparison is made between the anger at the game's final score and the despair for exam scores using the word "as." To determine this, you can identify the word "as" in the sentence, which indicates that a comparison is being made.
2. For question 2, the correct answer is Analogy. An analogy is a figure of speech that compares two different things by highlighting their similarities. In the sentence, the comparison is made between simplicity and garden design, and symmetry and building design. To determine this, you can identify the structure of the sentence, where the words "is to" establish a relationship between the two pairs of words.
3. For question 3, the correct answer is A. Turn. The root word -vert- is derived from the Latin verb "vertere," which means "to turn."

To determine this, you can break down the roots of these words and recognize the common meaning of "turn."
