English

The government official objects to having horses depicted on wallpapers and flowers on carpets because he is of the belief that everything should be factual, i.e. backed by logical facts. And in that effect, he does not believe that horses can be on walls in real life and neither can flowers be on carpets.

Explain how an author uses figurative language to communicate theme.
andriy [413]

Answer:

Remember that figurative language are figures of speech that readers used to convey a message in a story. Some of these languages contain similes, metaphors, personifications, hyperbole, etc... In this case, you would use "metaphors and similes to convey the message of a theme in a story, that's because metaphors are things that compare each other without using like or as, and similes compare two things using the words like or as." For example, "always fly like a bird" is a simile while giving you the main idea to go for your dreams because you can't actually fly like a bird and you use figurative language to find out the main idea or theme.

Hope this helps.
