Metaphor, or another way of referring to things without referring to it directly is a way of conveying a message which have hidden and most often multiple meanings/interpretations. Metaphor, most often can only be understood by those who share similar topic of discussion, interest or brainwave, where only The Chosen Ones can decipher what the "real" codes are.
So, what do all the metaphors used in the stories mean?
1. Land of the Dinosaur
2. Land of the Copernicus
3. Lady of the House
Quick check..
1. Where do dinosaurs live?
2. What the the characteristics of a tyrannosaurus?
3. Where does Copernicus work?
4. Why does a lady build a house in the Land of the Dinosaurs?
Use your critical thinking/analysis to find out the answers. Remember to relate the answers to the Writer...The background reveals a lot about the writer's thoughts. Have fun cracking the Co-Co-Nut.
p/s: The Writer was quite pissed off that a guest dropped by without any appointments and therefore, she was in a Pissed Off Mode which was transferred to the earlier post. A correction was made. The error was regretted.
