Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is A metaphor is used to paint a picture of responsibility.

Explanation:

A metaphor is a rhetorical figure where a thing, person or concept is presented through something different, but with similar characteristics.

It is different from a simile because we do not use the words "like" or "as".

In this case, for example, we have the phrase “Now, Ernesto, you are the man of the family.” Here, what is being said is that now Ernesto has to “grow up” and take responsibility for taking care of his family.

The term "man of the family" is used to say something different, but with the same objective as is the case of responsibility.
