Answer:

The caged bird sings; the free bird thinks

Explanation:

The pair of uses of figurative language from "The Caged Bird" that help support the extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression is "the caged bird sings; the free bird thinks".

Metaphor is a figure of speech which actually describes an action or thing in a way that is not literally true but it helps to make a comparison.

The use of "the caged bird sings" and "the free bird thinks" shows the comparison of the caged bird and the free bird. It tends to show what the personality does when oppressed and when free. They show an extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression.

"The Caged Bird" is a poem by Maya Angelou which is concerned with imprisonment and an inner urge for freedom.

I would like to know what a descriptive quote means? My teacher told me to include one for each character in the characters list
Mariana [72]
A descriptive quote is simply a quote that throughly describes and gives details about a subject or in this case a character.

Without more information on your assignment, my best understanding is that your teacher is looking for a quote from whatever literary piece you are reading that best describes each of the characters.
