Hello. You did not inform the book to which this question refers and did not show the passage where the metaphor is presented. This makes it impossible for that question to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.
A metaphor is an implicit comparison, that is, when using the metaphor, the author compares a characteristic between two elements, extending the meaning of one of them and leaving the text more poetic and deep. However, this comparison is not made literally, but must be understood by the reader to be efficient. The strength of a metaphor, therefore, is to allow the reader to understand why the comparison is being made. The weak point, on the other hand, is established when the metaphor fails to make a good connection between the compared elements.
PLEASE HELP!!!

We saw three lion cubs using binoculars.
correct the misplaced modifier.
Answer:
When we correct the misplaced modifier, the sentence becomes:
"Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs."
Explanation:
We can define modifiers as words or phrases which modify another word in a sentence, that is, which give information about that word. A misplaced modifier is one that is placed incorrectly in a sentence, changing its meaning or causing ambiguity.
In the sentence we are analyzing here, the position of "using binoculars" makes it sound as if the lion cubs were the ones using the binoculars. This is a clear case of misplaced modifier, and all we need to do to correct it is place the modifier closer to the word it refers to, which is "we":
"Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs."

" think before you speak, Read before you think" meaning of this quote???
Quote by Fran Lebowitz: “Think before you speak. Read before you think.” If you speak before you think about what you're going to say, you do not take the time to consider what words you will use, what these words will mean to another person, or how they will feel about what you're saying
Read the excerpt from Act II, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo: We met we woo'd and made exchange of vow, I'll tell thee as we pass; but this I pray, That thou consent to marry us to-day. Friar Laurence: Holy Saint Francis! what a change is here; Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear,70 So soon forsaken
Hi. Even though you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions related to it. This makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try to help you by showing you what this text means.
As shown in the question, this text is an excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet" and as you may already know, this play tells the story of forbidden love between Romeo and Juliet, who cannot be together because their families are enemies .
In this excerpt, Romeo tells Friar Laurence how he and Juliet are in love and how Friar must agree to perform their wedding. Friar Laurence, on the other hand, doesn't like that kind of news, because the day before, Romeo was suffering because he was in love with another girl, Rosaline. At this point, Friar puts himself as a mentor to Romeo, discouraging him from proceeding with the idea of marriage, as this is a very hasty decision and should not be done that way.

I began after a little to grow very bold and sat up to try my skill at
paddling. But even a small change in the arrangement of the weight will
produce violent changes in the behavior of a coracle. And I had hardly
moved before the boat, giving up at once her gentle dancing movement,
ran straight down a slope of water so steep that it made me giddy, and
struck her nose, with a spout of spray, deep into the side of the next wave.
I was drenched and terrified, and fell instantly back into my old
position. Luckily, the coracle seemed to find her head again and led me as
softly as before among the billows. It was plain she was not to be
interfered with, and at that rate, since I could in no way influence her
course, what hope had I left of reaching land?
