Metaphor.
When we speak metaphorically, we use words in a non-literal sense. For example, when we say a writer casts light on a situation, we mean that the writer helps us understand it more clearly, in the same way that putting a light on in a dark room helps us see more clearly.

James did a lot of partying in his final year and ran into diff iculties with his course. His father was hopping mad1 when he only just managed to get his degree. However, when he left university he walked straight into a job2 in an excellent company.
