Answer:
14. True.
15. False.
16. True.
Explanation:
In Chinua Achebe's novel 'Things Fall Apart", the story revolves around the Igbo culture in Africa, specifically on the character of Okonkwo. The story deals with themes of culture, tradition, Christianity, conformity, etc.
In Chapter 3, we see that Okonkwo's father Unoka went to the Oracle to consult why his crops failed even though he made sacrifices. It was then that he was told his crops failed despite his sacrifices because he was lazy and had planted on a wasted land.
Okonkwo's prosperity was a result of his desire to be unlike his lazy father. He did not want to be deemed alike to his father and thus, went to the wealthy Nwakibie to ask for 400 yam seeds.
In Igbo culture, yam was considered to be the king of the crops. It was assumed that a man who can feed yam to his family the whole year is a man who has succeeded and is hardworking.

Hello there!
This is one excerpt from Romeo and Juliet:
- Romeo: O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do; They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
- Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.
- Romeo:
Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take. Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.
- Juliet: Then have my lips the sin that they have took.
- Romeo: Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged! Give me my sin again.
Explanation:
Romeo compares her with a saint and compares her kiss to a prayer and Juliet continues the metaphor asking if her lips has taken his sin. Romeo kisses her again "saying give me my sin again".
So the metaphor is: Juliet- saint, kiss-prayer
