Deadline #12 HW #5 Figurative Language

I did use some figurative language in my paper. My introduction consisted of one simile. "He always likes to go in the woods and watch the deer frolic through the meadows or the raccoons scurrying up the old oak trees like rock climbers". A simile is comparing something with something else using like or as. I compared a raccoon to a rock climber. Similes provides detail to a paper, as well as enjoyment for the audience. Some more figurative language I might use will be analogies. Analogies draw comparisons between two things. I could compare hunting to some other issue that is scrutinized, such as hunting, or visa versa with anti-hunting.
