Answer:

C. The metaphor comparing the boy's legs to lead weights suggests

that he is moving slowly toward the house.

Explanation:

The boy's legs is compared to lead weights. Focus must be kept only on the "boy's legs to lead weights". This connotes that he must've have been unhappy, thus he was walking slowly, when figuratively said, that his legs were heavy causing the slow movement.

Label all parts of speech for: No way! Ask Gerald to go.
telo118 [61]
Seems like fun.

I can help a little but not all the way, sorry.

I forgot how to label "no way" since it's been five years I last learned this stuff.

Anyways, "ask" is a verb. "Gerald" is a proper noun. The word "to" is a preposition and begins a propositional phase.

Everytime a preposition is used, it has to end with an object of the preposition. In laymen terms, everytime a preposition is used, it will always modify something in the sentence.

The word "to" modifies "go". What does Gerald want to accomplish? He want TO do something. What does he want to do? He wants to go somewhere.

So, "to" is the object of the preposition or what the preposition is modifying. Hopefully, that helps. Good luck!
