Even the taxi horns dwin-dle down to a precocious few
in the gray and pink moments
of dawn. Suddenly there is
another sound, a morning
sound that taunts the memory
for recognition. The growl of
a predatory monster? No, just
garbage trucks that have
begun a day of scavenging.Trash cans rattle outsiderestaurants. Metallic jaws on
sanitation trucks gulp and
masticate the residue of daily
living, then digest it with a sat-
isfied groan of gears.
Can you read the paragraph and tell what the two imaginative comparisons about the truck are?
1 Metallic jaws on
sanitation trucks gulp and
masticate the residue of daily
living,
2 digest it with a satisfied groan of gears.
Reply:It sounds like a huge animal scavenging for food, then relishing it as it chews and swallows it.
