I think the answer is B-Hyperbole
"<span>C. "I won't forget to feed the dog," Helen promised" is free from capitalization errors. Sentences (even if they're direct quotations from a character) need to begin with a capital letter. </span>
Hello!
The effects of using the figurative language that is described in the story are:
By speculating about his genetic makeup, the author conveys a contemplative tone.
By referencing his persistence, the author conveys a proud tone
By describing the differences between a terrier and a spaniel, the author implies an ironic tone.
Argument:
The author tends to use plenty of metaphors and similes with a tendency of contradiction. For example, when the author compares a spaniel and a terrier gives the reader a metaphor of how different these races are between each other but at the same time, he shows how valuable is Nibble, the mongrel dog.
