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.
