Dear Diary,
Once, our whole family had gone on a vacation to the northeast states. And on one occasion, my father took me and my younger sister to a traditional village fair which was our very first experience attending any such fairs. It was more than I had imagined. The whole ground was full of people moving along, with stalls erected in all corners. The stalls have toys, food, clothing, necessities, and even handmade bamboo products. While the fun and activities part was on another side of the huge ground, I was more into the crafts and wooden products. I asked around for the price, thinking that they'll be too costly and I wouldn't probably have it in me to buy them. But to my surprise, they were so cheap, compared to how things are in my home city of Delhi. I asked my father to buy me so many things that I had to make choices.
Moreover, the one most surprising thing was the friendliness and openness of the village people in helping others, even strangers. They knew we were from out of town and made sure that we are safe, and immediately tried their best to help, even by the old women who couldn't speak English. While their native language was foreign to us, that did not stop them from voicing their concern.
My sister got so many traditional dolls, toys, and other art crafts. I think this was the one time we got ourselves so many things. But it was such a wonderful experience being there, and I don't regret ever spending time or money there.
I only hope I can go there again next year.
Here's hoping for that.
Love,
Sneha.

Answer:
Imagery and figurative language are used in the short story as a way to understand some thoughts transmitted in sentences, as well as to intensify the reader's perception of these meanings.
Explanation:
Imagery is used in the text to intensify one of the reader's senses and make him better understand what is being described in the text. In this way, imagery has the ability, literally, to provoke a strong sensation in the reader and bring him closer to what he is reading. In the text we can see this in the lines:
<em>"At length, watching the sea-gulls in the air—the only creatures that were sure of liberty—he thought of a plan for himself and his young son Icarus, who was captive with him."</em>
Figurative language aims to express an idea based on the use of words that are not objectively related to that idea, but establishes a subjunctive relationship that gives a lot of meaning to the text, in addition to exercising the reader's reasoning and understanding of the constructions. We can see a figurative language in the lines:
<em>"He fell like a leaf tossed down the wind, down, down, with one cry that overtook Daedalus far away. "</em>
