Answer:

C. Simile

Explanation:

The correct answer is <em>simile</em>.

Simile is a figure of speech that uses <em>"as"</em> and <em>"like" </em>to compare two things.  It is used in comparing one thing with another thing that is of a different kind.

This tries to compare "<em>when friends can't be found"</em> to "<em>a bridge over troubled water". </em>Simile differs from metaphor because it compares two things directly by highlighting the similarities between those two things using "like" or "as".<em> </em>Metaphors actually create an implicit comparison.

Shakespeare uses figurative language often in his writing. What are some examples of allusion and hyperbole in this passage?
Nutka1998 [239]
An example of allusion in this would be "Cupid" because he is alluding to the famous character in mythology.
Ex. of an allusion to help you better understand: if it's capitalized in the middle of a sentence, it's sure to be an allusion. An allusion can be a significant place, landmark, or person; for example, Barack Obama or the Eiffel Tower.

An example of a hyperbole from the excerpt would be "sick in love" (I think. Shakespeare is a little tough to understand, even for me, lol) because the statement is exaggerated.

I hope this helped! ♥
