Answer:
The two contrasting figures of speech does the speaker use to describe Lucy is described below in details.
Explanation:
Figures of speech provide writers and poets to display purpose in a significant, sometimes unexpected way. Since we understand the original hand of what a violet and a star are alike, the observations give us a broader knowledge of Lucy than a simple description could. Some general figures of speech are comparisons, metaphors, analogy, and personification.
<u>Omniscient narrator</u>:
This is a common 3rd person narrator in which the person of the tale knows everything, from private thoughts, secret or hidden events, to jumping betweens time. However, the narrator does not tell the reader or viewer everything, until it has a great affect on the story. This is used throughout the story, and the story line can change whenever. For example, if i am a omniscient narrator, i would be able to tell you what every single character is thinking, their actions, and their consequences. You will be able to know whatever they think & do. An example of this is: Bob is angry, because Tom broke his favorite toy. Bob thought, "I will repay Tom for what he has done". He devised a plan that included destroying all of Tom's toys. In the dead of night, when all others are sleeping, Bob went to Tom's house, and bashed and scattered his toys around. The next day, when Tom awoke, he screamed. His parents came and called the police.... etc etc
This showed that even though the other people in the story did not know who did it (yet) or what his thoughts were that led to his actions, the reader him/her self knew what was going on.
hope this helps
