That is a metaphor. Two things are being compared without using like or as.
Hope this helps. :)
An emphasis on moral behavior (and the questioning of it) is at the core of "Romeo and Juliet". The main conflict revolves around it: how ethical it is to fall in love with my family's enemy? During the course of the drama, this moral question transforms into another one: How ethical it is to hate other people in the first place, based only on their surname?
The ethical question gets especially complicated when Juliet thinks about marrying Paris. To her, it seems as if she would betray Romeo, which she would never do; but the paradox is that if she betrayed Romeo, she would undo the betrayal of her family. In spite of that, she doesn't want to give up on her loyalty to Romeo. In Act 4, Scene 1, she says:
JULIET
O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris,
From off the battlements of yonder tower,
Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk
Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears;
Or shut me nightly in a charnel house,
O'ercovered quite with dead men's rattling bones,
With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls.
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud
<span>(Things that, to hear them told, have made me </span>
tremble),
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
<span>To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.</span>
Answer:
1. The idea of alien life (proposed many years ago) has not yet been proven- Participle phrase.
The participle phrase starts either with the present (dependably ending with -ing) or past (dependably ending with -ed)
The participle phrase includes the modifiers or objects to complete the thought of the sentence.
2. (According to the letter) the wedding is June 25th.- Prepositional.
A prepositional phrase refers to the phrase which begins with a preposition and ends with the 'objects' of the prepositions that are nouns, gerund, clause or pronoun.
The pattern of the prepositional phrase follows by the object of the preposition having one or more modifiers.
3. Mikayla's homeroom teacher, (mr. Jones) is very proud of her- Appositive
Appositive refers to a word or a noun that is followed by another phrase or noun which identifies or rename the noun or word. In other words, it refers to the literary device which appears after or before a noun phrase or noun, used with a comma.
4. (Talking) is not allowed in class- Gerund
Gerund in a sentence functions as a noun. Hence in a sentence, a gerund will act as direct objects, subjects, subject complements, an object of prepositions or indirect objects. Every gerund ends in -ing, and so does present participles. On the other hand, present participles act as modifiers or complete progressive verbs.
