The correct answer is "the boy in the red shirt"

Explanation:

The purpose of an appositive phrase is to describe or add information about a noun, for example, a person, place, object or animal. Due to this, appositives can include adjectives or other nouns that provide further details. Moreover, appositive phrases are considered as non-essential and are often enclosed by commas. In the case of "Alex, the boy in the red shirt, is the captain of the football team" the appositive phrase is "the boy in the red shirt" because this describes the noun "Alex", also, this section is enclosed by commas which shows the phrase is non-essential.

The road to the mountains was a ribbon of moonlight.

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: B) Metaphor

Explanation: A metaphor can be simply defined as a figure of speech that compares actions or words that are not literally related but might share similar characteristics. It gives a hidden meaning or representation.

"The road to the mountains was a ribbon of moonlight",

The "road" and the "ribbons of moonlight" are literally unrelated because roads are neither ribbons nor ribbons of moonlight.

"Ribbons of moonlight" is only meant to give a hidden meaning or representation of the characteristic or nature of the road to the mountains.

So "Ribbons of moonlight" is a metaphor.
