Question

Answer 1

Answer:

no it is a simile

Explanation:

it uses "like"

Answer 2

Answer:

Hello, I believe this phrase would actually be a simile as it uses the word "like" to compare her to a bird in a cage. Metaphors do not use connecting words like "like" or "as" when making comparisons. If it was a metaphor it would say she is a bird in a cage instead of using like in the statement.
