Question

And I started wearing glasses when I was three, so I ran around the reservation (the rez!) looking like a three-year-old Indian grandpa.
And, oh, I was skinny. I’d turn sideways and disappear.

But my hands and feet were huge. My feet were a size eleven when I was in third grade!

With my big feet and pencil body, I looked like a capital L walking down the road.

And my skull was enormous.

Epic.



The narrator’s __________ voice is mainly due to the use of __________.

realistic . . . imagery
depressive . . . metaphors
exaggerative . . . hyperbole
serious . . . anecdotes

Answer 1

exaggerative . . . hyperbole

Junior describes himself as having an enormous skull and being so skinny that when he turned sideways he'd disappear. He is over exaggerating his features to get sympathy from the reader and to create humor. A hyperbole is an over exaggeration.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is C, exaggerative and hyperbole, because they talk about being skinny like a pencil, hope this helps
