4. figurative language is Allegory, the swimmer is often considered an allegory about decline, the aging process, and the life cycle. An Allegory is symbolic representation through character or events of truths or generalization of human existence. In allegory people, places, and events often have more than one meaning-that is, they can stand more than one thing.
5. The important event from this story is when Neddy,s house fire cause themselves mistake.
