Answer:

B

Explanation:

Figurative language comes up in things like idioms. If you say that something is a hard pill to swallow, you aren't talking about someone actually having a difficult time swallowing an actual pill. You might be talking about them hearing some news which is difficult for them to hear, or coming to grips with a flaw they struggle to admit to. Figurative language changes the typical definition of words to add emphasis, or just make it sound more interesting.

Read the poem "Nothing Gold Can Stay" by Robert Frost. Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a
asambeis [7]

The sentence that best describes the symbolic meaning of gold in the poem is The wonderful things in life that do not last.

This poem uses a very important parallel where it shows the word Gold as a precious or perfect thing in this line "Nothing gold can stay". We have another example that talks about how things that we appreciate in life are not eternal and we have to live them when they are happening in the line "Nature's first green is gold".

The other options are not possible because the poem has a constant element of transition from one thing to another which represents temporal things.

Which sentence has an adjective clause?
Sergio [31]
The sentence that has an adjective clause is the third one - <span>Liz, who could always make people laugh, was loved by the whole block.
Here, the adjective clause is <em>who could always make people laugh, </em>because it describes the subject, <em>Liz.
</em><em />The other sentences have only adverb clauses.
