Answer:
C. Anthony's headache vexed him all morning, so he decided to take a break from writing his research paper.
Explanation:
The correct answer is Option C.
This is true because looking at the meaning of vex, one will discover that it means to cause perplexity and to bring distress or suffering
This means that Anthony's headache caused him distress which made him to have a break from writing his research paper.
D, scuffle means a short fight, so it could replace the word fight. ‘I witnessed a scuffle.’
C ( took the quiz in my class)
It contains an analogy and technical language but no allusion
"Raining cats and dogs" literally means that small animals are falling out of the sky. But, of course, this image of animals falling from the sky is a metaphor for very large, heavy drops of water (and possibly dark skies, since animals are opaque).
In a normal metaphor there should be <u><em>no</em></u> word (like).
if you made this example try to change it, but if it is the teacher's question......
<u><em>Hope this helps!</em></u>
