Answer:

Figurative language and hyperbole

Explanation:

The sentence is an example of figurative language as it uses a type of language that goes beyond the literal meanings of the words in order to make ideas more colorful and meaningful: The speaker does not literally make one step per minute, this idea is expressed this way so it could be more colorful and effective than to simply say "I walked very slowly".

Moreover, this sentence is also an example of hyperbole (which is a type of figurative language) because it involves an exaggeration of ideas. To make one step per minute is extremely slow, unrealistic and obviously false. The speaker tells it this way for the sake of emphasis.

Which novel is the best selling of all time — with over 500 million sold?
Marianna [84]
The novel which is the best selling novel of all time - with over 500 million copies sold - is Don Quixote.
The novel was written by Miguel de Cervantes in 1605 (and the second volume in 1615). It is about a landlord called Don Quixote, whose delusional mental disease made him think he is an errant knight on a quest to defend his lady Dulcinea's honor by having to fight all sorts of enemies, like windmills (which he thought were giants) and such. 
Although it is not the most selling book of all time (the Bible is), it is still the most selling novel, followed by A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens, and The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien.

Write a paragraph republic day​
Fantom [35]

Republic Day is our national festival that is celebrated every year on 26 January. This day is special for Indians because we got our constitution on this day. As India got its independence on 15 August 1947 and further on 29 August 1947, a committee was appointed to make our constitution. Dr. B R Ambedkar was appointed as the chairperson and it took two years, 11 months, and 18 days in the framing of the constitution. The constitution was formed on 26 November 1949 but was finally adopted on 26 January 1950 as this date has its historical significance. It was confessed to celebrate our Independence Day on the same date in a meeting of the Indian National Congress held on 26 January 1930. But it took 17 years to get free from British rule and India got its freedom on 15 August 1947. So, we celebrated Independence Day on 15 August.
