Answer:
It will be told in past tense.
Explanation:
We know what is going to happen, but the Harper Lee's clever, cunning writing causes us to easily forget. Scout is the narrator, and beginning like this shows that it's in past tense. Also Scout knows what will happen. As the reader it tells us that Scout is retelling a story--a story about her and Jem and all the things they encounter.
Well for one, characterisation is how a writer chooses to reveal a characters personality in a story, through things like physical appearance (shiny hair, blue eyes, nice smile, ect.) and through virtues and faults (brave, attentive, smart - egotistical, bitter, evil.)
Figurative language is basically how you'd describe said chracterisations, through things like personification, hyperbole, metaphors, similes, ect.
So with that being said, figurative language can help characterise a monster by doing more than just saying it's a monster; figurative language can make it /feel/ like a monster to the reader. Figurative language can turn the monster '3-D' (for lack of better words), by saying it has long claws, stinky breath, vicious fangs, a horrifying growl, ect.
My favourite example of figurative language is actually in the childrens book "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak, because it uses simple figurative language. Maurice Sendak describes the wild things as so: "They roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws.'
Anyway, I hope this helped !! :-)

One I have heard at school is that when the people in front of you down the narrow hallway are walking too slow is, "You walk slower than a herd of elephants stamping through peanut butter."
