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.

Autumn (sometimes called fall) is one of the four seasons of the year and is the time of year that transitions summer into winter. Along with the tree leaves changing color, the temperature grows colder, plants stop making food, animals prepare for the long months ahead, and the daylight starts growing

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Death reduces everyone, even Kings, to worm foods

Explanation:

Hamlet is saying that a man may fish with the worm that eats a king and then, eat the fish that has fed of the worm.

This is to say that death can reduce everyone.

From the excerpt, Hamlet said a king can be reduced to food for worms, and the worms in turn are used to feed a fish, the fish can then be food to a common man. This is to show that no matter how powerful a person is, he can still be reduced to nothing.
