-lock-
A) Simile
B) Metaphor
C) Personification
D) Hyperbole
Answer as written by the student:
The above statement is False
Step-by-Step explanation of the answer:
The text says: “as when everything seems dead and later proves to be alive.” This tells us that the poet does not associate silence with death, but rather with life. He uses an example of how nature and life go through a cycle of death and rebirth, such as in winter and spring, to show us that silence is not the end, but the beginning of something new and beautiful.
Therefore, the inference is false.🌎
