Answer:
Hello Mr. Redman,
I would like to inform you that I'm going to be out of town two days next week and three days more the week after that, in order to inspect some land our firm planning to buy. I hope you will understand the motif of my absence and give me appropriate permission to represent our company if my partner and I decide to buy this land.
I'll be available for any additional task or concern you might have almost every day during our working schedule (from 8 A.M. to 4 P.M). If you need anything, do not hesitate to contact me.
I wish you a prosperous week!
Best regards,
S.N. Stevens
Explanation:
When we are writing to our employer, boss, director, etc. we will certainly use a formal language, short sentences with clear information about the main reasons for our absence and indicate the day of our arrival. We also mention to the boss that we will handle any issues and problems emerging from our absence.

Answer:
Each text example is matched to the different techniques below:
- He snores louder than a cargo train
Exaggeration/Hyerbole
- What must you do before you get off a bus? Get on it.
Humor
- The sign says to keep off the grass, but there is only dirt in the lot
Irony.
Explanation:
Exaggeration/Hyperbole: This is an obvious over-amplification of claims or events for added effect. It is usually not taken literally. This is used to pass across a message to show the severity or consequence of something.
An example is " I was so hungry, i could swallow a horse".
This does not mean that the person can literally swallow a horse but just to show the extent of the hunger.
Humor: Humor is the quality of being comical or amusing usually to elicit laughter.
The example above, "What must you do before you get off a bus> Get on it".
This uses humor to show that one must first be on a bus before he can think of getting off and the question is constructed in a funny way.
Irony: This is the expression of one's feelings through the use of words that signify the opposite of what is really meant, usually for emphasis.
