If I were you, I would want to start off by going through
the book and noting down examples of literary terms, making sure I take down the quote
and page number. Then, having identified about ten literary terms, I would then
construct my test, offering about four responses to each question, and giving the phrase
which contains the literary term in the question itself. For example, looking at the
very opening of the novel in the first page of Chapter One, we can see the following
example of a literary term:
readability="6">
As soon as the light in the bedroom went out
there was a stirring and a fluttering all through the farm
buildings.
Here, clearly the
word "fluttering" is an example of onomatopoeia, because it enacts the sound of the
action it represents. Your first question could therefore
be:
1) The use of the word "fluttering" on page 1 of the
novel is an example of:
a)
simile
b) metaphor
c)
onomatopoeia
d)
personification
Hopefully this will give you an example
that you can follow to create the rest of your test. Good luck and have
fun!
