Explanation:

Question 2- A metaphor is an example of figurative language, therefore, it would not be included in a definition or an example of literal language.

Question 3- Matching definitions.

Question 4- Similes compare two things using like or as. "As easily as sliding a knife through butter." Metaphors compare two things without using like or as. "Became a white sheet." Allusions are references in literary works to other literary works, people, places or things in history. The game Rock, Paper, Scissors is being referenced here.
