Answer 1

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

1. Metaphor - "cooking up a storm" is a metaphor that describes abuela's cooking in an expressive way, suggesting she's very busy and passionate in the kitchen.

2. Imagery - The phrase "the fire on my tongue" evokes a sensory experience, allowing readers to imagine the spiciness of the salsa, which is culturally significant in many Hispanic cuisines.

However, assuming you need to select two options strictly from the listed responses and without the option for imagery:

• The best choice in that case would be Allusion (to cultural practices in cooking) and potentially Idiom (if "cooking up a storm" is considered idiomatic in your context), but since they are not a perfect fit, if you must select from the given choices, there might be ambiguity without more context.

If it strictly concerns the figurative language used, then “Metaphor” is appropriate with the example provided, but a second clear option is not in the listed choices. Please clarify how you'd like to approach that!

Answer 5

Based on the passage you provided, the two best types of figurative language that are used to develop the cultural setting are:

1. Metaphor - "cooking up a storm" describes abuela's cooking in a vivid way, suggesting she's very busy and energetic in the kitchen.

2. Imagery - "the fire on my tongue" evokes a sensory experience related to the spiciness of the salsa, enhancing the cultural aspect of the food.

However, since "Imagery" isn't one of your listed options, selecting the following two from your choices would be best:

1. Metaphor
2. Idiom (if we consider "cooking up a storm" as an idiomatic expression).

If you are constrained strictly to the listed responses, then Metaphor and Idiom would be the best choices.
