Simile
He is as cool as a cucumber
She is as solid as a rock
That book is as old as the hills
It is as plain as the nose on my
face
My throat is as dry as a bone
She is as innocent as a new-born
baby
This car is as fast as lightning
This laptop computer is as light
as a feather
He is as straight as an arrow
This road is as straight as an
arrow
That house is as pretty as a
picture
I feel like a fish out of water
