Answer:

overstatement  --> E. hyperbole

pleasant-sounding  --> C. euphony

understatement  --> A. litotes

simile  --> B. cool as a cucumber

cacophony  --> D. opposite of euphony

Explanation:

An overstatement or hyperbole is a figure of speech that uses exaggeration to express an idea, a feeling, an action etc.

Euphony refers to a harmonious combination of words or sounds, being pleasant to the ear.

An understatement is the description or presentation of something as being less important than what it really is. Litotes is an ironic understatement.

A simile is a figure of speech which makes a comparison - stating a similarity - between two different things. It uses words such as "as" or "like".

Cacophony is a discordance of sounds, unpleasant to the ear.

Read the excerpt from act iii, scene ii of romeo and juliet. juliet: and bring in cloudy night immediately. spread thy close cur
Zina [86]
cloudy night, unseen, and spread thy close curtain are all both phrases that support the motif of darkness. 

A cloudy night means that all of the stars should be covered. When this occurs, it means that the sky is going to be even darker now considering the fact that all sources of light are going to now be covered. Being unseen also supports the idea that it may be too dark out for anybody to see Romeo come to meet up with her, additionally supporting the fact that there was a dark enough setting that Romeo was able to navigate easily in without worry of guards catching sight of him. Spreading thy close curtain directly relates to the darkness and how Juliet is waiting for curtains to come and cover up the sky.

An additional bonus phrase could also potentially be runaway's eyes may wink. Runaway is Juliet's term for the night, although she also considers the stars to be eyes and for them to be blinking. 

I cannot be 100% with this, but I have explained each potential answer. If I am wrong, I would love it if someone could correct me. Thank you.
