One of the types of metaphor usually referring to with little【S1】______
admiration is the dead metaphor: a metaphor which has been
absorbed into everyday language usage and became naturalized, so【S2】______
that most language users are not aware of it as a metaphor any
better. Common examples include the foot of a page, a table leg,【S3】______
the arm of a chair: usages so everyday that their metaphorical
origins are forgotten. The meaning of some words has expanded
larger to include their metaphorical usages, as is the case for the【S4】______
word clear, for instance. The literary meaning of clear is that light【S5】______
can pass by, as in clear water or clear glass. When an idea or an【S6】______
explanation is described as clear, a mental process is being
compared with a passage of light through something. Is that clear?【S7】______
doesn’t mean can you see through it?, but metaphorically, is it
comprehensible?. Our language is full of words which have been
taken from one area of experience and used to describing another.【S8】______
Dead metaphors tend not to be considered poetic: Some
literary critics are scathing about them, and people sometimes
regard them as a sign of poor writing in other contexts — and since【S9】______
a lot of the language we take for granted derives dead metaphors,【S10】______
perhaps we can not afford to be too squeamish about them.
【S9】
