Sticks in hand I begin the beat, beat, beat
slow and steady on the
bass, bass, bass.
The snare drum sashays in,
pounding out its part
like the popping of corn,
my afternoon snack of rhythm.
The startled cymbal
sizzles to life,
as I sing to the tempo,
pounding from my room
that signals Mom,
a headache is on the horizon.
How does a simile most clearly contribute to the tone of this poem?
A. The simile "as I sing to the tempo' creates a humorous tone
because the speaker doesn't realize that the music is too loud,
B. The simile "like the popping of corn" creates an energetic tone
because popcorn popping brings up a mental image of quick
movement.
C. The simile "like the popping of corn creates an irritated tone
because the sound of popcorn popping can be annoying.
D. The simile "as I sing to the tempo creates a musical tone because
it uses a specialized musical term for rhythm
