Read the following scene from Trifles.
MRS. HALE (resentfully). I don't know as there's anything so strange, our takin' up our time with little things while we're waiting for them to get the evidence. (She sits down at the big table, smoothing out a block with decision.) I don't see as it's anything to laugh about.
A. Move as the reader imagined.

Metaphor is used as a figurative language in this line. Hence option d is correct.
Figurative language is defined as the process of using words in a way that differs from their usual order and meaning in order to convey a complex meaning, a colorful writing style, clarity, or an emotional comparison. By utilizing a conventional sentence, it refers to something without explicitly declaring it. Expressions that have meaning but are not literal are referred to as figurative language.
"We will ignite our country and those who serve it with the vigor, faith, and devotion we bring to this quest, and the brightness from that fire can truly light the world." In this metaphor, Kennedy expresses the notion that the vigor, faith, and dedication of the American people will kindle a fire that will enlighten the entire world.
Thus, metaphor is used as a figurative language in this line. Hence option d is correct.

The Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Lincoln declared that all individuals who were held as slaves within the Confederate states shall be set free.
During the third Civil War, the declaration of the proclamation was a major military strategy as it was believed that freeing enslaved workers would greatly effect Confederate war efforts.
The proclamation also garnered a lot of attention from the public especially the abolitionists though Lincoln's primary aim was to save the Union rather than freeing the slaves.
