Achilles' Heel means the one weakness in an otherwise invincible thing. Achilles was the half-mortal son of the nymph Thetis, who dipped him in the River Styx to make him immortal. Unfortunately, she missed his heel, which she held; it remained mortal.

So the correct answer is C:<span> Sara's weakness</span>

In Roald Dahl's short story: The Landlady, Dahl's antagonist is very forgetful. She continues to forget Billy's name. She states
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Idiom

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • allusion
  • apostrophe
  • hyperbole
  • idiom

Idioms are phrases that don't have a literal meaning. This means that we can't conclude what a phrase means based on the meanings of words that make it up. We simply have to learn what these phrases mean.

An example of an idiom is <em>in one ear and out the other</em><em>.</em> This doesn't mean that something enters through one and exits through the other ear. Actually, this expression refers to an instance when someone ignores, dismisses, or forgets something almost immediately after being told. In this case, Dahl's antagonist keeps forgetting Billy's name instantly after hearing it.
