Answer: Find explanation below.

Explanation:

1. Confirmation bias is a way of reasoning, wherein, a person explains information in a way that suits his/her original beliefs. It is a form of reasoning that deviates from the originally accepted standard. For example, if a person holds a previous belief that white people are smarter than dark people, when the person sees white people who are smart, they attribute it as a proof of their original beliefs.

Patternicity is the tendency to find meaningful patterns in things that might not make sense. Sometimes, the patterns may or may not be accurate. For example, if I see a crowd coming forward, and immediately presume it as danger, there are two case scenarios here; they might actually be a harmful mob or simply be a group of people bringing goodness.

2. Self - enhancement bias is a way of reasoning that enables people think and feel positively about themselves even in very difficult situations. The person in this case, has an optimistic view of himself even when he fails at a task. Different people achieve self - enhancement using several methods. For example, some decide to water down the strengths of people who they presume are higher than them. Others however, become introverts because they are afraid of failure.

Self - consistency bias is the inability of individuals to notice some deviations in their thought processes or reasoning patterns because they believe that there were no changes in the way they think. For example, a person might think that because he loves reading now, he has always loved it. Meanwhile, when he was a child, he never loves reading.

The broad term for the use of similes, metaphors, hyperboles, and personification is called "figurative language".
Figurative language alludes to the shading we use to enhance our written work. It takes a common articulation and dresses it up in a suggestive gown. It tenderly suggests something without straightforwardly expressing it. Figurative language is an approach to draw in your readers, introducing through your written work with a more inventive tone.
