Metaphors are when you compare one thing with another thing that's like it in some way, only you don't use the word "like". Say you have a teacher who you think is horrible, you might say, "I don't want to sit through another class with that gorilla". Now your teacher isn't really a gorilla, but something about him makes you think of a gorilla--that's a metaphor. If you come right out and say, "My teacher is like a gorilla", though, that's nota metaphor, because you set out both of the things you compare with "like" in the middle. That's called a simile (pronounced sim-ill-lee).
Here are some other examples: "You won't get far driving that bucket of bolts" (is it really a bucket of bolts? No, it's a metaphor for a beat-up car.)
"She sure poured ice water on that conversation" (did she really pour water? No, it's a metaphor for making people less enthusiastic.)
"I don't know how that witch got on the team." (she's not really a witch; it's a metaphor for a bad-tempered woman)
