Answer:

Hyperbole: I swear I'll love you for a million years

Personification: my pencil dances over the blank page

Metaphor: my sister is a dragon fierce and mean​

Explanation:

Figurative Language helps bring an appealing effect in the writing. There are many types of Figurative Languages like Simile, metaphor, Personification, Hyperbole, Alliteration to name a few.

In hyperbole there is use of exaggeration in the writing. In sentence 1, it says that I will love for million years, which is exaggeration of the time for which the person will love the other one. It only means that person will love the other one forever, a long time. So, it is a use of Hyperbole.

Second sentence uses personification as compares a non living thing to a characteristic of a living thing. Pencil is an object which cannot dance, but it is mentioned in this sentence. So, it is personifying pencil.

Third sentence is a metaphor as sister is called dragon in this. She is being called fierce like a dragon.

What is your opinion of celebrity auctions? State your position, and support it with your reasoning
Sophie [7]

Answer:

celebrity auctions can be very weird. However, occasionally, there is some semblance of sanity to the whole process.

One thing that stands out clearly from the passage is that hunting for this celebrity paraphernalia is just human nature. In paragraph three, there is evidence from archeological records to demonstrate this.

Perhaps another contributory factor, besides the fact that there are people who use these things for a good cause, is that money follows sentiments.

For a family who is in the tennis business one way or another, getting hold of one of Senera Williams' tennis rackets would provide an immense source of emotional or sentimental satisfaction. People in the same industry would feel that way too.

If one person places value on a thing, it may hold no value at all. But if there is a whole industry of professionals, who make a living off celebrity auctions, the chances are that everyone will start to see opportunities even with the most bizarre celebrity artifacts.

In the end, whether this habit is for opportunistic reasons, emotional reasons, or philanthropic reasons, it's all about human nature.

Explanation:

hope this helps! happy holidays.
