Answer 1

Unclear question, but I inferred this to be the full question;

Which statement best describes the meaning of the imagery in the line "It is the bright day that brings forth the adder”? (An adder is a snake.)

a. The sun shines on Caesar, but he must watch his steps.

b. Brutus will kill Caesar with a bite of stinging fangs.

c. Evil can come from good and cause much harm.

d. Some animals cannot be trusted, no matter what.

Answer:

a

Explanation:

Using a metaphor which describes the natural occurrence of day and night, the lines were meant to warn Caesar that he will face snake-like attack from others. That is why it was said "he must watch his steps".
