Question

which excerpt from the crisis, number 1 contains a simile?
\these are the times that try mens souls,\
\tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered.\
\what we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.\
\it is dearness only that gives everything its value.\

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech that directly compares two unrelated things using the words "like" or "as". Among the options, only the second excerpt uses "like" to compare tyranny to hell, fitting the definition of a simile.

Answer:

B. "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered."
