1) METAPHOR: "Lights flicked on and house doors opened all
down the street, to watch the carnival set up...in which torches wuld be juggled and
fire eaten." (Although the author does not use the words like
or as he is comparing the scene at Montag's house
to a carnival.)
2)
ALLUSION: "Old Montag wanted to fly near the sun and now that he's burnt his damn wings,
he wonders why." (Beatty is referring to the Greek myth of Daedalus and
Icarus, in which a man and his son manage to fly by attaching wings to their
shoulders; see link below.)
3) SIMILE: "He felt
his head turn like a stone carving to dark place next door" (A comparison is
made, using the word like).
4) ANAPHORA: "She
saw everything. She didn't do anything to anyone. She just let them alone."
(The word she is repeated at the beginning of each
sentence.)
