My dear sister,
First of all, a huge congratulations on getting into the school you've always wanted. Not only is that school my alma mater, but it is also one of the most prestigious schools in the whole state and I am so proud of you making it in.
There are some things that I would like you to know before you start school. And I want you to listen carefully and make it a point to try to remember them as much as you can.
First, the school's an old institution but that doesn't mean it is bad. On the contrary, it is so famous and good that it's still up and running till now. The institution helped a lot of famous faces grow up, and it is a good place to learn and be educated. The school has all of the facilities that one can find in a school and so, I would like you to try to make use of everything and expand your knowledge.
Moreover, the school also has some rules and regulations which may seem inappropriate. But it is for your good. Try to follow them and never deviate from it. The school's principal, Mr. Smith is also a good guy who is always ready to help the students with any of their grievances. So, don't hesitate to approach him, or other teachers too. They are all there to help you grow into a good person.
The school's reputation is one which you should try to emulate and it will help you in your future life too. But at the same time, try to experience and enjoy as much as you can.
I hope to visit you as soon as I can come there. Till then, take care and will be seeing you soon.
With lots of love,
Brianna.
C. Translated
Mr. Johnson translated this book.
Simple past tense.
An example of allusion in this would be "Cupid" because he is alluding to the famous character in mythology.
Ex. of an allusion to help you better understand: if it's capitalized in the middle of a sentence, it's sure to be an allusion. An allusion can be a significant place, landmark, or person; for example, Barack Obama or the Eiffel Tower.
An example of a hyperbole from the excerpt would be "sick in love" (I think. Shakespeare is a little tough to understand, even for me, lol) because the statement is exaggerated.
I hope this helped! ♥
