B) Metaphor

Personification is something being described human like
Simile uses like it as
Repetition is repeating

The quote is not being described as human like, it does not have like or as, and it is not repeating. Therefore the answer is Metaphor.

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is quote : "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." In this case, we talk about being on a right track not literally, but its just a way to say that "you're close to the answer". Getting run over is just like that too. You are not going to get literally run over, its just a statement that implies that you won't get any farther. Hope this helps. Please ignore the literally at the end, I didn't find a way to remove it :).

Can someone give me a foil example of two characters and a reason why/ examples they are

Helen [10]

An example of a foil is Tybalt and Benvolio. The foil between them is there traits between each other. Benvolio does his best to keep peace and harmony, while Tybalt is always trying to pick a fights. This is because of the feud between the Montague and the Capulet's which Tybalt takes very seriously.

An example of this is when Romeo goes to Capulet's masked ball. Once Tybalt recognizes his voice he talks about wanting to fight Romeo for crashing the party

While Benvolio in the beggining scene tries his best to stop two servants from Montague and Capulet's from fighting.
