	1a Questão
	
	
	
	Mark the only option which is not true about metaphors

	Metaphors are cognitive devises
	
	Metaphors can represent our daily thoughts.
	
	Metaphor is a figurative process
	
	Metaphors belong to the human cognition
	
Explicação:
A teoria proposta por Lakoff & Johnson ficou conhecida como a TEORIA COGNITIVA DA METÁFORA, que postula que metáforas e metonímias não são apenas figuras de linguagem, como afirmavam os estudos tradicionais sobre os fenômenos linguísticos; ao contrário, estão além da linguagem e da literatura. Essa teoria concebe a metáfora e a metonímia como autênticos mecanismos cognitivos. Nesse sentido, elas pertencem ao pensamento, ou melhor, pertencem à cognição humana.
