Answer:

<em>1.metonymy</em>

<em>2. Hyperbole</em>

<em>3. Simile</em>

Explanation:

1. The bread of the land-metonymy

2. My tears have washed away the earth- Hyperbole.

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

metonymy: Is the replacement of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of the thing meant

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

As wise as Solomon
