Read the excerpt from julius caesar, act 1, scene 2.
flavius. it is no matter; let no images
be hung with caesar’s trophies. i’ll about,
and drive away the vulgar from the streets:
so do you too where you perceive them thick.
these growing feathers plucked from caesar’s wing
will make him fly an ordinary pitch,
who else would soar above the view of men
and keep us all in servile fearfulness. [exeunt]

what does the symbol of growing feathers represent in this excerpt?
greed
loyalty
arrogance
fickleness

I believe that the correct answer is the third one: arrogance. The phrase growing feathers represents arrogant tone in the speaker.

Explanation:

When reading that particular line: "These growing feathers plucked from Caesar's wing / Will make him fly an ordinary pitch," we can feel the arrogance in the tone of the speaker. Specially, when reading the word plucked, like the feathers were stolen from Caesar, like he feels proud of it. It represents an arrogant tone in FLAVIUS.

in my opinion, ap calculus was the most difficult. i often struggled with it a lot. however, i have gotten a lot better.

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
