lina2011 [118]

Community service is extremely important to highlight social agendas in society and to promote justice and support communities and groups that are fragile and marginalized in our country. Participating in this type of activity during high school is essential for the student to understand his role as a socially privileged individual, in addition to having knowledge about social issues and developing his sense of compassion and generosity, since community service is a job that we do it for the people who need it, without receiving anything in return, besides the satisfaction of promoting the good.

However, it is important that this participation is a choice of students. This is because community services need dedicated people who participate in activities out of love for others and concern for the community. A person, who is obliged to participate, will not have these characteristics.

Which of the following lines uses figurative language?
tia_tia [17]

The line that uses figurative language is the last one: The girl's eyes were deep blue oceans.

<u>Figurative language refers to the use of figures of speech to make a literary text more impactful and to develop a more creative writing</u>. Some forms of figurative language are simile, metaphor and personification<u>. In the case of the line "The girl's eyes were deep blue oceans", there is a metaphor since a thing (the deep blue oceans) is regarded as representative of something else (the girl's eyes)</u>. In that way, the author is describing the girl's eyes by means of a comparison that, at the same time, should not been taken literally.
