Answer:
Breakfast was amazing, <u>but</u> I kept knocking stuff off the breakfast table. I couldn't work properly <u>because</u> I had stayed up the whole night typing away without stopping on the huge computer <em>like a beaver tirelessly building a dam out of wood</em>. I somehow managed to go to school where I had to write more boring essays. Finally, the bell rung to signal the start of lunchtime. A most heavenly time.
<u>Underlined</u>= conjunctions
Bold= descriptive words
<em>Italics</em>= figurative language
Explanation:
First of all, you need to know what descriptive language, coordinating conjunctions and figurative language is.
Conjunctions are words which link two sentences together. Examples of thse are: <em>but, and, or, as well as </em>etc.
Figurative language is all about metaphors, similes, personifications etc. Figurative language include words and phrases such as: <em>He slept like a log</em> (simile). These type of sentences compare an object to another object, but not in a literal way.
Descriptive language is about describing a scene, object, person etc. A descriptive word can be an adjective, metaphor, adverb, simile and other word groups.

She is compared to the mother to show that her way of dressing is different than what is required of her visit because the mother is dressed in slacks and has her hair up in a kerchief. It goes on to say that the grandmother would be easily identified as a lady if she was found on the side of the road. This label of being a lady seems to be important and only communicated through appearance.
