A simile, also called an open comparison, is a form of metaphor that compares two different things to create a new meaning. But a simile always uses "like" or "as" within the phrase.\n\nAn onomatopoeia is a word that tries to sound the same as a real sound we might hear. Words similar to woof, click, buzz, and shh are onomatopoeias.\n\nRepetition ... is the occurrence of an event which has occurred before.\n\nI've given you the meanings, now you can find the appropriate answers for your school assignment.\n\nGood luck.

Imagery is basically a technique that uses words to paint a picture in the reader's mind.  It's better than using literary statements because it gets the point across rather than stating it directly.

Hey, hows about this?\n\nA day in the life of a tree\n\nImagine that trees could see things. Imagine what a tree would see in 24 hours. A domestic argument, friendships formed and broken...\n\nA simple idea but you could make it brilliant. Maybe I'm being nuts but better than an elaborate idea that has been done to death.

A metaphor is an analogy or comparison.  "Your eyes are sapphires" is a metaphor, because eyes are compared to sapphire jewels.\n\nThere is a kind of metaphor called a "simile."  The difference is that for a simile, we say something "is like" another rather than being the same as another.\n\n"Your eyes are LIKE sapphires" is, properly, a simile rather than a metaphor.\n\nSimiles and metaphors are TECHNIQUES of the art of RHETORIC as developed in ancient Greece.

From wikipedia:\nA mixed metaphor is one that leaps, in the course of a figure, to a second identification inconsistent with the first one. Example: "He stepped up to the plate and grabbed the bull by the horns," where two commonly used metaphors are confused to create a nonsensical image.
