Question

5.
Read this line spoken by Caius in Scene 2.
Because the sun is the king, the others have to go around him.
Which type of figurative language does this line contain?

Answer 1

The line spoken by Caius contains **metaphor**. In this case, the sun is being likened to a king, suggesting that it is central and powerful, while the "others" (likely referring to planets or celestial bodies) revolve around it. This comparison emphasizes the sun's dominant role in the solar system, embodying the characteristics of a king without using "like" or "as," which would indicate a simile.
