Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor draws a sharper comparison than a simile. A metaphor is a figurative language that describes an object by comparing the object with another unrelated thing. It does not give the object its literal meaning. It is usually expressed in a phrase or clause by associating two things that are unrelated to make meaning. For example, when someone says Brian has a river valley knowledge in Mathematics.

Read the excerpt from "Marriage Is a Private Affair" by Chinua Achebe.
irinina [24]

The right answer is the mandate to marry within one's tribe. Even though Nnaemeka knew that his decision to marry a woman from another tribe would upset his father, he thought that his annoyance would eventually pass away. But he had not realized that his was a decision without precedent, and this caused surprise, indignation, and sadness among his people, who, stuck to tradition, saw in Nnaemeka's act a reflection of their Lord's cautionary teachings ("Sons shall rise against their fathers") and a bad omen ("It is the beginning of the end"), hence illustrating their conviction in the mandate to marry within one's tribe.

Identify the prepositional phrase in the sentence:
Step2247 [10]

The prepositional phrase in this sentence is c. "to your sentence structure", because it is postmodifying an infinitive phrase (to bring complexity), which has the same value, in this case, as a noun phrase. Besides it is composed by a preposition (to) and a noun phrase (your sentence structure).

Option a. is a verb phrase as well as option b. In the same way, letter d. is not a prepositional phrase as it is an adjective phrase used in the comparative form.
