Answer 1

Writers use figures of speech primarily **to create an emotional response in a reader** and **to explain a complex idea more clearly**. Figures of speech, such as metaphors, similes, and personification, can evoke strong feelings and imagery, enhancing the reader's engagement and understanding of the text.
