The highways were happy to him because the poet was happy when he traveled them (option 2). He is recalling the place, his past and the memories he had in that place. Even thought, now he is an adult and he is not able to come back. it seems that the "returning" to it is not literal but he is not able to go back to his childhood.

Drag and drop each example of figurative language into the correct category.
pychu [463]

The correct answers are

Metaphor: She's an encyclopedia; We're just old news; I'm spreading my wings.

Simile: It's hard as steel; He's crafty like a fox; I'm strong like a bull

Explanation:

Both Simile and Metaphor are rhetorical figures used to describe a person, animal, object, etc. by making a comparison. The key difference between these two figures is that in SImile explicit comparison words such as "like" or "as" are used, while in metaphor the comparison occurs directly. This means, in the sentences "It's hard as steel", "He's crafty like a fox" and " I'm strong like a bull" there is simile due to the use of like and as, while in the rest of the options there is a metaphor because comparison occurs directly.

The doctor says he can cure Lady Macbeth.
malfutka [58]
The doctor tells Macbeth that his wife is very ill, and he cannot cure her. Macbeth reacts angrily, telling the doctor he cannot be bothered by such matters. This is so different than the start of the play when Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are shown as a close, loving couple. We know when Macbeth no longer cares about his wife that he is headed for tragedy
