Which sentence contains an analogy? he ate as though he had been starving for several days. the student examined the ancient text as a jeweler might look at a rare gem. i dropped on my bed utterly tired, but as happy as a clam. when my younger brothers are excited, they chatter like magpies.

Sentance one is a simile
Sentance two is the analogy
Sentance three is a descriptive simile
Sentance four is a simile

You can check to see if sentance 2 is an analogy by putting it into one. Student: text :: Jewler : jem. This makes sense because both the student and the jewler are examining something. 

Hope this helps!

Bolder words good luck
