QUESTION:
1.This past Sunday, I picked up my father-in-law from the auto body shop to drive him home. After dropping him off at his house, I made my way home. A huge deer slammed it's body into my car, destroying the front end. My new SUV now sits in the same auto body shop.
2. The figurative language used in this passage is allusion. Allusion is a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance. Michelangelo is a famous artist. By referring to her artistic classmate as a "budding Michelangelo", the person our speaker is referring to is represented as someone who is talented in the skill of art. This enhances the passage by using someone the readers are likely to be familiar with.
3.Karen Barnard, director of UCL Careers When freezing up during an interview, honesty is the best policy: But first, clarify your understanding of the question by saying something like: "To clarify, did you mean...?" If you still don't know, then be upfront and describe how you are going to find out about whatever it is.
