<em>1.metonymy</em>

<em>2. Hyperbole</em>

<em>3. Simile</em>

Explanation:

3. What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?- Simile.

An hyperbole is simply a figure of speech that has to do with exaggeration on what is seemingly impossible to be done or occur eg. i am so hungry that in can eat a horse, i have a million things to do today

Simile has to do with comparison of one thing with another that are different. example:

as fast as a dare

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

true

Statements:

-Thinking like a sociologist means making the familiar strange.

-Sociologists seek to uncover cause-and-effect relationships.

Explanation:

Sociologists study how language, media and stereotypes are formed as product of historical, contextual and changing social process.

Often this means making something very familiar, to be questioned and then profoundly:<u> for example we ask why people and social groups act in a certain way.</u>

<em>Even if we think that it is out of common sense, many social actions have a higher cause and impact , that is why Sociology makes unlying causes and effect also a subject of debate.</em>

We can see that many everyday actions are random actions but for sociogy , many social actions have a widened scope and are explained in terms of the effects and the cause that underlies.

<u>This is why social science will concern with  the concept of causality, in which an action or event will be produced in a certain response to the action in the form of another event.</u>
