Extension 

1. Thing thing that infered the sound of thunder in the story was the dinosaur voice. The thing that infered it at the end was the gunshot. He did not move. Eyes shut, he waited, shivering. He heard Travis breathe loud in the room; he heard Travis shift his rifle, click the safety catch, and raise the weapon. This was the sound of thunder.

2. The Monster, at the first motion, lunged forward with a terrible scream. It covered one hundred yards in six seconds. The rifles jerked up and blazed fire. A windstorm from the beast's mouth engulfed them in the stench of slime and old blood. The Monster roared, teeth glittering with sun.
The rifles cracked again, Their sound was lost in shriek and lizard thunder. The great level of the reptile's tail swung up, lashed sideways. Trees exploded in clouds of leaf and branch. The Monster twitched its jeweler's hands down to fondle at the men, to twist them in half, to crush them like berries, to cram them into its teeth and its screaming throat. Its boulderstone eyes leveled with the men. They saw themselves mirrored. They fired at the metallic eyelids and the blazing black iris,

 First example:The Monster, at the first motion, lunged forward with a terrible scream. This is auditory imagery because you can hear the scream.
Second example: The rifles cracked again, Their sound was lost in shriek and lizard thunder.  This is also auditory imagery because you here the rifles crack and you can hear the lizard roar.
Third example: They fired at the metallic eyelids and the blazing black iris. This is visual imagery because you see the metallic eyelids and the blazing black iris.
  3. "Does this safari guarantee I come back alive?"We guarantee nothing," said the official, "except the dinosaurs." This foreshadows that they might not come back alive. 

"Makes you think, If the election had gone badly yesterday, I might be here now running away from the results. This foreshadows that when they come back the elections would have gone bad.

So be careful. Stay on the Path. Never step off!" This foreshadows somebody will go off the path.

Can these guns get a dinosaur cold?" Eckels felt his mouth saying. This foreshadows that when they  shoot the dinosaur it will not die.

Metaphor: to transfer a quality from one thing to another.
Each lower leg was a piston, a thousand pounds of white bone, sunk in thick ropes of muscle, sheathed over in a gleam of pebbled skin like the mail of a terrible warrior. Each thigh was a ton of meat, ivory, and steel mesh. And from the great breathing cage of the upper body those two delicate arms dangled out front, arms with hands which might pick up and examine men like toys, while the 
snake neck coiled. And the head itself, a ton of sculptured stone, lifted easily upon the sky. Its mouth gaped, exposing a fence of teeth like daggers. Its eyes rolled, ostrich eggs, empty of all expression save hunger. It closed its mouth in a death grin. It ran, its pelvic bones crushing aside trees and bushes, its taloned feet clawing damp earth, leaving prints six inches deep wherever it settled its weight.
