    The figurative language is the part where the meaning is made apparent indirectly while the literal is where what is said is meant that way.

    Explanation:

    Figurative Language

    "Thin as a soda straw the slate pencil was

    wrapped in red, white and green paper, the colors

    spiraled as on a barber's pole."

    Here, we can see that there is a use of simile and metaphors to compare the pencil to a soda straw to show how thin it is and to show that the colors spiraled which does not happen in real.

    Literal Language

    'The slate was set in a wooden frame decorated with

    red and green stripes. In one corner there was a small

    hole in the frame for the string to which the slate pencil

    was tied. '

    This passage is informational and literal.
