Question

Can I get some help with my English portfolio please?

Answer 1

In 200-250 words, describe the picture
as an outside observer, or as someone (seen or unseen) in the photo

Use word choices to create a mood; the reader should be able to get some impression of you

Must include:
at least one detail for each of the 5 senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch)
one simile (compares two unlike things using like or as.)
one metaphor (compares two unlike things without using those 2 words)

Answer 2

I understand the concept, I'm just not very good at righting this out and not sounding bored

Answer 3

Hrmmm, have you got anything written for this yet?

Answer 4

I've been trying to think of how. I have something for sight, "People who are fed up and want change". Sound would be "The chants of the people" but what do the teachers want for taste and smell?

I think once I get the rest of the sentences I can write the simile and metaphor

Answer 5

senses not sentences

Answer 6

I think you could bring a metaphor in with the description for sight. Maybe something like raging waves rioting?

Answer 7

All I can think of for smell is sweaty people tbh. x'D

Answer 8

So like

The people are fed up with the regime. Their rage is like the crashing waves of an ocean, becoming big enough to take it down.

Answer 9

CRAP THAT'S A SIMILE

I can write similes, why can't I write metaphors?

Answer 10

You can use a simile as well, but we'll have to find something else to use as a metaphor.

Answer 11

Hrmm, maybe try being more descriptive about how close they are... Maybe something like they brush up violently against one another, nearly crushing one another.

Answer 12

Answer 16
