Incomplete question. However, I provided explanations about the four figurative languages mentioned.

Answer:

<u>Hyperbole</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hyperbole: A hyperbole refers to a literary device that employs the use of exaggerated statements that shouldn't be taken literally. For example, saying,  "the whole Earth stood still when he gave his speech." We notice this example matches the type of figurative language used in the sentence.

Personification: When something that is not human is attributed as though it has human characteristics, it is the figurative language of personification.  For example, saying, "the forest became saddened"

Symbol: It refers to anything that represents something else. For example, the symbol of a heart often symbolizes (represents) love.

Simile​: This figurative language involves a deliberate comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind in other to make a clear description to the listener or audience.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

the writer’s overall purpose determines the techniques he or she uses. The writer’s

reason for writing a particular article or book may be manipulative, as in propaganda

or advertising, or may be more straightforward, as in informative writing. In either

case, understanding the writer’s underlying purpose will help you interpret the context of the

writing. It will also help you see why writers make the decisions they do—from the largest

decisions about what information to present to the smallest details of what words to use. The

chapter concludes with instructions on how to write an analysis of purpose and technique. This

kind of rhetorical analysis will provide the perspective required to keep you from being pushed by

words in directions you don’t want to go.

MissTica

Answer:

It means "importance".

Explanation:

When the text says "To add to the significance of their mission" the text is referring to the addition of importance that the female walk in space will receive, since it will be held in the month of women, as it shows that women have reached places never imagined.

We can reach this conclusion, because the word "significance" refers to something very important, full of meaning and importance.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

I would talk to my friend and try to come to an agreement so that he or she would pay half the repairs the sofa would need.

Explanation:

Although animals are unpredictable and my friend is not to blame for the damage his cat did to my sofa, the cat is my friend's responsibility, just as it was my responsibility to look at what the cat was doing and prevent him from destroying anything .

As we cannot charge the cat to pay for the damages it caused, the best option would be to enter into an agreement with my friend and ask him to pay half the repair that his cat caused.
