This must be from a standardized test. The wording is a little confusing, but I'd say it is a metaphor. Google says the definition of metaphor is "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This is saying something <em>is</em> something, or comparing two items without using "as" or "like". Have a good night/day!

In this passage from “The Wedding Night”, the author uses “vivid description” to develop the characters. So, option D) is the correct one.
Throughout the passage, there are several examples that reinforce the use of vivid descriptions such as “a sort of infinite intoxication which comes from the stars, the moon, the silver, glistening water”, “They are a glimpse of a different existence, an embellished, delicious existence”, “The night was magnificent, one of those nights which bring grand, vague ideas to the soul”.
Vivid descriptions are literary resources used to describe emotions and memories in a very clear and detailed way so that the reader produces those vivid images of the descriptions.
Option C does not apply to this part of the excerpt as there are no dialogues introduced. As regards direct and indirect characterization, the author is not describing the character’s personality through these literary resources.
Answer:C-Contraries and Contradictions.
Explanation:When two(2) statements are contraries, it means they are pairs of propositions in which both cannot be true or correct but they can both be false.
When 2 statements or beliefs are contradictories, it simply means they are pairs of propositions in which both of them cannot be true and both of them cannot be false.
Two propositions can be contradictoring if they cannot both be true and they cannot both be false. That means the statements have opposite truth values.
I am sort of puzzled on this particular question; however, I think I solved it. Okay, so the text starts with explaining the benefits of coffee, then it proceeds to explain the negative affects of consuming coffee. Transition words like <em>on the other hand</em> are commonly used when contrasting ideas. Hence, I believe the correct answer is c. contrast.
