6. D. Personification. This is because the phrase gives the limbs of trees a description that makes it sound alive.
7. A. Simile. This is because similes are compared using like or as, and the sentence has the word like.

If you're talking about the poem by Edith M. Thomas then I believe that the central idea is about how people can base something off of their looks. I'm not completely sure, but it talks a lot about how they look dead, but then explain that they are not. To me that makes it sound a lot like the saying "don't judge a book by its cover".
It could also mean that things take time to grow into something beautiful, and before that happens, you have to go through something difficult, seeming as if it is the end of the world. But then you blossom and bloom and everybody will look in awe.
I'm not completely sure these are right, and I'm not sure we read the same poem, but you didn't state the author's name. This was just off the top of my head but I hope it helps you or gives you an idea :)
You didn't post any passage...
Apple is to tree as grape is to vine.
Hair = simile
apples = generalization
Answer:
I am not familiar with many Icelandic folk tales, so obviously these are unfamiliar to me. When I researched some Icelandic folk tales, I realized that most of them have either trolls or elves in them. This is very interesting, and I wanted to know more about why this was, so I looked it up. It seems that there are so many trolls and elves in the folk tales because they are deeply rooted in the culture of Iceland. Maybe some folk stories from around here have elves or trolls in them, but certainly not as much as the Icelandic ones. I also wonder I there are some Icelandic folk stories that do not have these common themes in them, Though there probably are. Because we can see a pattern in Icelandic folk tales, I wonder if there is a noticeable pattern in folk stories from around here, but I'll research that later.
