What is the figure of speech when the write says “The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with pur

pose in its heart.”
Story:

The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside, just before putting him into the box.
"There are 5 things you need to know," he told the pencil, "Before I send you out into the world. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil you can be."
"One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone’s hand."
"Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but you'll need it to become a better pencil."
"Three: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make."
"Four: The most important part of you will always be what's inside."
"And Five: On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark. No matter what the condition, you must continue to write."

The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with purpose in its heart.
Now replacing the place of the pencil with you. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best person you can be.
One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in God's hand. And allow other human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.

Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through various problems in life, but you'll need it to become a stronger person.
Three: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.
Four: The most important part of you will always be what's on the inside.
And Five: On every surface you walk through, you must leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue to do your duties.
Allow this parable on the pencil to encourage you to know that you are a special person and only you can fulfill the purpose to which you were born to accomplish.
Never allow yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is insignificant and cannot make a change.

Identify the subordinate clause within the sentence below. Allison and Andy want to travel to India someday once they saved enou
Contact [7]

The subordinate clause is a part of a sentence that depends of the main part, and works whithin it as an adjective, an adverb or a noun.

In the sentence:Allison and Andy want to travel to India someday once they saved enough money for the trip.

The nucleus of the sentence will be allison and andy want to travel to india someday and the advervial subordinate clause within the sentence will be "once they saved enough money for the trip".

This way we see how the second part of the sentence by itself has not too much sence but once the two parts make one sentence we see the full sense and meaninf in the sentence
