Answer 1

The two types of figurative language used to develop the cultural setting of the passage are:

1. **Hyperbole** - "cooking up a storm" is an exaggerated phrase that emphasizes how busy abuela is in the kitchen.
2. **Metaphor** - "savored the fire on my tongue" compares the spiciness of the salsa to fire, adding to the vivid imagery of the experience.

So, the answer would be **hyperbole** and **metaphor**.
