The correct answer is Metaphor
Answer:
In 1953, when The Crucible was first performed, the United States was deep in the throes of the Red Scare. Senator Joseph McCarthy led a witch hunt against supposed communists, targeting various celebrities, government officials, and even writers, many of whom were blacklisted because of their alleged ties to the Communist party.
The Crucible itself can be considered an allegory for McCarthyism. The mass hysteria caused by McCarthy's accusation of treason and sedition draw striking similarities to the Salem witch trials, in which innocent people were tried and convicted on flimsy evidence, just as they were during the Red Scare.
Arthur Miller drew source material from the real-life Salem witch trials, which began in 1692, the year the play is set. At that time, Salem was populated and ruled by Puritans, whose repressive theology drives a group of young girls to accuse others of witchcraft to distract from their own sins and desires.

First person!! Did this before.
As an animal right activist I witnessed something inhumane and outright disgusting earlier. As I was walking home I saw this horse who was struggling against his bounds trying his hardest to move this heavy cart. The cart was very obviously too heavy for the horse as the horse was in obvious distress and pain. I immediately dialed the number to our towns animal rights organization and told them of the abuse I had just witnessed. I then made sure to take pictures of the incident for if I had to testify against the animal abusers. It amazes and horrifies me the extent people view Animals as nothing but tools to further their personal gain. I hope the abusers end up in jail or at least with a hefty fine and I pray the poor innocent animals will be taken to someone who will love and care for the wonderful creature.
Let us only consider the endings of the verses; we see that the 1st and the 2nd dont match (surplice, wings). We notice though that the 2nd and 4th match (wings, sings). We can thus knock out options a and c. We also have that the 2nd and the 4th verse do not match. Finally, the 1st and 3rd dont rhyme (surplice, bell) and neither of them rhymes with any other verse, thus the correct option is b.
