Well for one, characterisation is how a writer chooses to reveal a characters personality in a story, through things like physical appearance (shiny hair, blue eyes, nice smile, ect.) and through virtues and faults (brave, attentive, smart - egotistical, bitter, evil.)
Figurative language is basically how you'd describe said chracterisations, through things like personification, hyperbole, metaphors, similes, ect.
So with that being said, figurative language can help characterise a monster by doing more than just saying it's a monster; figurative language can make it /feel/ like a monster to the reader. Figurative language can turn the monster '3-D' (for lack of better words), by saying it has long claws, stinky breath, vicious fangs, a horrifying growl, ect.
My favourite example of figurative language is actually in the childrens book "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak, because it uses simple figurative language. Maurice Sendak describes the wild things as so: "They roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws.'
Anyway, I hope this helped !! :-)
Answer:
. Vulnerability to
develop an addiction to drugs is dependent on genetic, environmental, social and
biological factors. In particular, the interactions of environmental and genetic factors
indicate the significance of epigenetic mechanisms, which have been found to occur in
response to illicit drug use or as underlying factors in chronic substance abuse and
relapse. Epigenetics is defined as the heritable and possibly reversible modifications in
gene expression that do not involve alterations in the DNA sequence. This review
discusses the various types of epigenetic modifications and their relevance to drug
addiction to elucidate whether epigenetics is a predisposing factor, or a response to,
developing an addiction to drugs of abuse.

Answer:
No, Mary Warren never told the truth about what happened in the woods.
Explanation:
According to the story of the Salem Witch Trials, Mary Warren was a servant of John and Elizabeth Proctor. She and the other accused girls went on a mission of conjuring things and practicing witchcraft. They had ulterior motives for this Abigail Williams wished to accuse Elizabeth Proctor of witchcraft so that she could marry her husband.
Mary Warren knew the genesis of all of these but she did not tell the truth about the girls to the court. She rather accused her master and mistress of witchcraft, leading to her master's sentence to death and her mistress' imprisonment.
In Orwell's novel <em>Animal Farm </em>the choice in setting is a decisive factor when constructing the allegory that the text is trying to convey. The farm, once ruled by humans and later ruled by the pigs is called Manor Farm. Each part of the farm has special symbolism and contributes to the deeper meaning of the novel. Each part will be described and analyzed in the following essay.
It's important to analyze the farm as a whole in order to understand the significance that the setting truly contains. The Manor Farm is used as a metaphor for communist Russia in this particular case, but could be applied to any society since its organized and ruled in the same manner a country would be. It also contains a series of complex relationships between the characters and their role within this society.
Inside the general setting, The Manor Farm, there are multiple spaces that contribute to the construction of the metaphor. The barn,for example symbolizes the oppression enforced by the ruling class (the pigs). The Seven Commandments are written on the walls of this barn, and later altered to suit the pig's interests. The windmill is another part of the setting that contains a deeper meaning. The pigs manipulate the rest of the animals into reconstructing the windmill even though there are more pressing needs at hand. The windmill is a perfect example of the greed and shrewdness that characterizes the ruling class.
In conclusion, the author uses the setting choice as an effective tool to construct the metaphor within the text. Orwell uses the farm as an allegory for communist Russia, and the spaces inside it to criticize the tyranny that sets it apart. Spaces such as the barn and the windmill are symbols of the abuse that unlimited power can lead to and aid in the construction of the mayor themes that the novel contains.
