Expository texts contain a main idea with supporting details and evidence. They should have a conclusion as well. Excerpt 1 informs the audience about Mount St. Helen. Excerpt 2 explains how anxiety manifests and ways to reduce it. Excerpts 4 and 5 are stories. They do not make a claim and then back it up with supporting evidence. Instead, they describe characters, a setting, and events. Excerpt 3 is written in second person point of view and explains about visiting another country.

Explanation:
Figurative language refers to use of words in a way that gives them an extra dimension, an additional meaning then the one intended. This is most often done by using simile, metaphor or personification.
The author here states that he felt like a sheep in a wrong meadow. He uses a comparison, a simile to convey another meaning, to express the feeling of confusion without explicitly writing it, but rather by creating images in our mind to explain his feeling through a use of figurative language.
