Which figure of speech does Lady Macbeth use in the underlined words from act I of Macbeth to emphasize that it was Macbeth's am

bition to become king?
LADY MACBETH:
Was the hope drunk
Wherein you dress'd yourself? hath it slept since?
And wakes it now, to look so green and pale
At what it did so freely? From this time
Such I account thy love. Art thou afeard
To be the same in thine own act and valor
As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that
Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life,
And live a coward in thine own esteem;
Letting "I dare not" wait upon "I would,"
Like the poor cat i' the adage?

choices are:
Apostrophe
personification
simile
allusion

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Breakfast was amazing, <u>but</u> I kept knocking stuff off the breakfast table. I couldn't work properly <u>because</u> I had stayed up the whole night typing away without stopping on the huge computer <em>like a beaver tirelessly building a dam out of wood</em>. I somehow managed to go to school where I had to write more boring essays. Finally, the bell rung to signal the start of lunchtime. A most heavenly time.

<u>Underlined</u>= conjunctions

Bold= descriptive words

<em>Italics</em>= figurative language

Explanation:

First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.

Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.

Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.

Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.

Hope this helps.

The great Roman Empire was so powerful that it conquered a large part of Europe, as well as parts of Africa and Asia.
The Puritans had to face many obstacles and mischiefs on their way to the New World.
__________________________________________________
The compound objects are bold
If a direct object is the recipient of action of the verb (what the verb does to something/someone), a compound direct object is composed of two or more such recipients.
