Can you give some examples of 'to say the name tells the story' in real life?

When a person loses a pet, they often cry. Those tears tell the story of the bond they had with the animal, all the memories they shared, like going for walks, playing together, and the pet being there for them during tough times. And when an elderly person cries while looking at old photos, their tears are stories of their long life, full of love, loss, and different experiences.

A suntan from a safari in Africa could tell the story of days spent in a jeep, observing wild animals in their natural habitats. It might also involve stories about the local tribes and their way of life that you got to experience during the safari.

It could be a story about a person who started from a very poor background but through hard work and determination made a successful life for themselves. For example, like Oprah Winfrey who overcame a difficult childhood to become a media mogul.

Well, some graffiti that tells a story is the kind that portrays a journey. Imagine a long stretch of wall where the graffiti artist has painted a traveler starting from one end of the world, facing different challenges like crossing deserts and mountains, and finally reaching their destination at the other end. This tells the story of perseverance. There's also graffiti that can tell a story about a community's traditions. It may display the traditional dances, costumes, and festivals of a particular ethnic group in the area.

Sure. Comics are a great example. They use panels and illustrations along with text to tell a story. Each panel shows a different moment in the story, and the reader follows along as the plot unfolds. Another example is stained - glass windows in churches. They often depict religious stories through the use of colored glass and figures. The scenes are arranged in a way that tells the story of a saint or a biblical event.

One example is 'The Arnolfini Portrait' by Jan van Eyck. It tells a story about a wealthy couple, perhaps a wedding or a formal union. The details in the painting, like the dog which symbolizes loyalty, and the single candle in the chandelier which might represent the presence of God, all contribute to the story. There are also inscriptions in the painting that add to the mystery and the narrative.

Sure. A vintage military jacket can tell the story of a bygone era of warfare. It might have patches, insignias, and wear marks that speak of the soldier who once wore it. Another example is a traditional wedding dress. It represents the love story of the couple getting married and often has cultural and family traditions woven into its design.

Sure. A locket with a photo of a loved one inside tells a story. It might hold the memory of a grandparent, for example. Another is a charm bracelet. Each charm added could represent a different event or achievement in a person's life, like a graduation cap charm for graduating from college.

One example is the 'The Thinker' by Auguste Rodin. This sculpture seems to tell a story of deep contemplation. The figure is hunched over, his chin resting on his hand, as if he is lost in thought about some great philosophical question.

Yes, 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald is an example. It's a novel written in prose that tells the story of Jay Gatsby's pursuit of Daisy Buchanan. Another is 'To Kill a Mockingbird' by Harper Lee, which tells the story of Scout Finch growing up in a racially divided town and her father's fight for justice. 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens is also a great example. It tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge's transformation on Christmas Eve through a series of ghostly visitations.
