Read the following passage:
returning from vietnam, we were given a parade. crowds
of screaming people waving signs - not just on one road,
one day. no, they were everywhere. every day. on the
streets, on the television, on the radio. a hot, angry tangle
of shaking fists and ugly words that threatened us like a
monster with a hundred heads. our country had chewed us
up and spit us out, and now we were being treated as if it
were our fault.
which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's
tone?
a. our feet were frozen in place as the street itself strained to hold
us back.
o
b. i felt unappreciated and condemned for actions i had thought
were heroic.
o
c. we had come home to a feeding frenzy and were being treated as
bait.
o
d. i hadn't expected to find myself in a rags-to-riches situation such
as this.
