| Imagery | ‘He began his new life standing up, surrounded by cold darkness and stale dusty air’ This took place in the very beginning when Thomas was in the elevator on his way to the Glade |
| Simile | ‘Harsh sounds of chains and pulleys, like the workings of an ancient steel factory’ This is what the elevator sounded like on his ascent to the Glade. |
| Simile | ‘the room jerked upward like an old lift mine shaft’ This when Thomas is still in the elevator |
| Descriptive words | ‘wiped the fresh beads of sweat off his forehead’ This was when Minho had just returned from the Maze to report the first dead griever. |
| Descriptive words | “Were the metal spikes in or out of its body? Did it move at all-was its skin still moist?” This is when Alby was asking Minho about what the dead Griever looked like. |
| Imagery | ‘Ben’s head snapped violently to the left, twisting his body until he landed on his stomach, his feet pointed toward Thomas. He made no sound’ This is when Ben goes crazy from the ‘Changing’ and attacks Thomas. Alby had to shoot him in the face with an arrow to stop him and his madness. |
| Imagery | ‘the long shaft stuck from bens cheek, the blood surprisingly less than Thomas had expected, but seeping out all the same’ This is Ben was dead from the shot from the arrow. |
