1. "Life is a broken-winged bird/That cannot fly." what literary term does the underlined phrase indicate?
- A. simile
- B. simile
- C. simile
- D. simile
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Life as "a broken-winged bird / That cannot fly" is a metaphor. It invites us to view life as having the attributes of the bird described: it has been damaged by something and is therefore unable to fulfill its original purpose or soar above the earth as it once had the potential to do.
