Answer:

C: a commonly used metaphor that has become part of ordinary language.

Explanation:

A  metaphor is a <em>figure of speech</em>  that compares two things by saying that one thing is another. A dead metaphor are those metaphors that, traditionally, have lost their force, but continue as <em>clichés</em>, or <em>everyday idioms</em>. For example: The <em>face</em> or <em>hand</em> of a watch no longer bring the comparison with parts of the human body.

kondaur [170]
If your options are: <span>A. Restful, B. Hopeful, C. Excited, and D. Depressed - in my opinion, the correct answer is B. Hopeful. The speaker is not restful, nor is this pure excitement or depression. He is rather distressed because of all the troubles he mentions, but he still tries to reconcile with the fact that life is what it is - it mixes sunshine with the clouds and the rain, and treats all people equally. These thoughts underline hope. He still grieves, but hope won't let him turn the grief into despair.</span>
