i have to make metaphors for a class project. and my rough draft was far from on the point. i thought i understood, but when a classmate edited it, she told me that is must be compared to an object(physical). is she correct or wrong? And if you could, would you give me examples of a metaphor with the beginning: "Family is"........? Any other advice would be much appreciated if you have it! thanks tons!!!

1. Raucous
2. Emblazoned
3. Dubious
4. Virtues
5. Emaciated
6. Vigorously
7. Audible
8. Non-committal

And if possible could you give a sentence with the word in it explaining the word if you know what I mean?

Like say the word was "calender" a sentence explaining its meaning would be - The dates on the CALENDER were full of appointments!
