The figurative language that can be found in the passage is a simile.

Explanation:

  • Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from the conventional order and meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it.
  • A simile is a type of figurative language used to make comparisons between two different things. The purpose is to say those things have some characteristic in common. Similes need support words to make the comparison, such as "like" and "as". An example of simile would be: She has eyes as deep lakes. - Because her eyes are blue they are being compared to lakes.
  • Similes can also use "as... as", which is precisely what we have in "as dead as a doornail" in the passage. This expression is used to emphasize death. If you say someone was as dead as a doornail, you mean they were certainly dead, "very dead", so to speak.

Which sentence in this excerpt from "In Another Country" by Ernest Hemingway is an example of irony?
timama [110]

The sentence in the above excerpt from "In Another Country" by Ernest Hemingway which is an example of irony is:

“You are a fortunate young man.”

The story "In Another Country" is about Hemingway's personal experiences in the Milanese hospital. He narrates the stories of the patients admitted with him after the end of the first World War. The story talks about the wounds which the war has given to them, apart from the physical pains. The wounded soldiers wanted to erase the ills and effects which the world war has given to the world. In the above excerpt, it is ironical that the doctor calls the football player 'a fortunate man' after his leg broke off.
