Answer:

The figurative language in this excerpt means: He had many arrows and let them all fall at his feet.

Explanation:

Figurative language is that by which a word expresses an idea using other terms, thus appealing to a similarity, be it real or imaginary. Figurative language opposes literal language, since it uses words with their true meaning, that is, it refers to things as they are.

In this case, the expression "He poured out his feet to the rain of arrows from the quiver" in a literally meaningful language would mean that it rained arrows, but as the phrase was written in figurative language it means "He had many arrows and let them all fall at his feet. "

Odysseus has just revealed himself to the suitors, and the pouring out of the arrows ‘like rain’ shows everyone there that he has ample ammunition - they are as many as drops of rain. It also forewarns the rapidity and ease with which the arrows will be dispatched.

Read the following selection from Act II of Romeo and Juliet. What does the line in bold most likely mean?
OLga [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is plenty of evidence that Romeo and Juliet's love for one another is immature, at least at first. Romeo claims to be madly in love with another woman, Rosaline, at the start of the play.

Correct option is A.

In the portion shown, a nurse, most likely Julie's acquaintance, is conversing with Romeo to determine whether his love is genuine and to warn him. The nurse explains to Romeo that she wants him to truly love her, as seen by "if ye should lead her into a fool's paradise

As they say it would be a most nasty form of behavior" because the nurse wonders if Romeo loves Julio or is just playing with her by "leading her into fool's paradise." She also mentions that this would be a "really disgusting kind of behavior. "If you are not true to Juliet, you are behaving very terribly, says the choice that paraphrases the idea of the bolded part.
