Answer:

Wounded and tired, yet still as brave as a lion, the soldier quietly asked for some water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using words and phrases to additionally describe things you talk about makes it easier for other people to picture things. Adjectives (wounded, tired) are words used to modify nouns and noun phrases, and adverbs (quietly) are words used to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.

Figurative language is the use of words in an unconventional way to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or comparison. An example of figurative writing is a simile (as brave as a lion) - a comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind.
