For an < u>unnecessary< /u> word cross the unnecessary word with a slash "—" and put the< br> word in the blank provided at the end of the line.< br>One of the types of metaphor usually referring to with little admiration1.______< br> is the dead metaphor: a metaphor which has been absorbed into everyday< br> language usage and became naturalized, so that most language users are not2.______< br> aware of it as a metaphor any better. Common examples include the foot of 3.______< br> a page, a table leg, the arm of a chair: usages so everyday that their< br> metaphorical origins are forgotten. The meaning of some words has< br> expanded larger to include their metaphorical usages, as is the case for the 4.______< br> word clear, for instance. The literary meaning of clear is that light can pass 5.______< br> by, as in clear water or clear glass. When an idea or an explanation is 6.______< br> described as clear, a mental process is being compared with a passage of7.______< br> light through something. Is that clear doesn’t mean Can you see through< br> it, but metaphorically, Is it comprehensibleOur language is full of words< br> which have been taken from one area of experience and used to describing8.______< br> another.< br>Dead metaphors tend not to be considered poetic: some literary critics< br> are scathing about them, and people sometimes regard them as a sign of< br> poor writing in other contexts -and since a lot of the language we take for9.______< br> granted derives dead metaphors, perhaps we can not afford to be too 10.______< br> squeamish about them.< br>
