What text? What theme? Which lines can we choose from?
Answer:
Hi. From the context of your question it is possible to know that you are referring to "The Storyteller" written by H. H. Munro. In this case, the actions of cyril that were presented in an exaggerated way were:
- The moment he disobeys his aunt.
- His ability to ask questions about everything.
- The ability to comment on the stories he hears.
Explanation:
In "The Storyteller" we get to know Cyril, a boy who is traveling with his sisters and aunts. despite being just a boy, he has a very active mind and is able to bring up exaggerated and captivating situations and subjects at the same time. The exaggeration of Cyril's actions is what makes the story admirable and allows the reader to understand not only this character, but everyone else around him. Cyril disobeys his aunt constantly and in exaggerated situations, asks questions about absolutely everything, even if they are unnecessary questions. In addition, he has the ability to comment on any story or conversation that takes place in the same environment as him.
