The figurative language is the part where the meaning is made apparent indirectly while the literal is where what is said is meant that way.
Explanation:
Figurative Language
"Thin as a soda straw the slate pencil was
wrapped in red, white and green paper, the colors
spiraled as on a barber's pole."
<u>Here, we can see that there is a use of simile and metaphors to compare the pencil to a soda straw to show how thin it is and to show that the colors spiraled which does not happen in real. </u>
<u />
Literal Language
'The slate was set in a wooden frame decorated with
red and green stripes. In one corner there was a small
hole in the frame for the string to which the slate pencil
was tied. '
<u>This passage is informational and literal.</u>
The answer is I.

Answer:
Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.
Explanation:
We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.
