Answer:

The correct answer here is A)

The author uses strong adjectives and figurative language.

Explanation:

Adjectives are words used to characterise, explain or modify nouns or pronouns.

In the sentence above, stubborn, blazed-up and resistant function both as adjectives and as figurative expressions.

Adjectives because the author uses them to qualify Edna's will.

Figurative because, they suggest another form of meaning which in this context, of course, are used to project the strength and resilience of Edna's will.

Another example of the use of a figurative language is:

You are my diamond.

Cheers!
