Which group of words from the sentence above gives clues to the meaning of the word countenance?
olga2289 [7]
The correct answer is number 3. eye, lips, nose

As per the question, countenance is said to have a description of calm facial expression, visage, appearance, and the look or the expression of the face. Also, consider expressing a person's character or mood. Countenance can also be a support or encouragement, composure, and also, self-control. To be able to use countenance in a sentence, take this as an example:

Look at the countenance of the man while the different persons were bidding on his wife.

Or maybe use this as another reference and another example to further understand what countenance really means:  

Upon entering the greenhouse, her countenance became radiant that she recites the names of the flowers with which she is familiar, by the sense of smell alone.

What is an extended metaphor in anne bradstreet's upon a burning house?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

I don't remember anything about an "extended metaphor," but the poem's main focus is to remind herself that while she loves the earthly comforts of her house and all her material things... it is important to not over-love them and instead think of all the spiritual rewards that are awaiting her in heaven.
