Explanation:

• Conventional Writing: Refers to writing that follows established norms and forms, not specifically about using symbols for deeper meaning.
• Literary Criticism: Is the study, evaluation, and interpretation of literature, not a device itself.
• Abstract: Usually refers to a summary or a concept that is not concrete, not a literary device for symbolizing.
