I would describe the opposite of a hyperbole as an understatement because a hyperbole is exaggerated and an understatement is something that isn't as important or as large. Hope this helps! :)

A hyperbole is an exaggerated statement, something that sounds bigger than it actually is.

The opposite of that would be making something sound smaller, not as bad or not as good, etc, as it actually is, like an understatement.

Answer:

A. Sonnet poem

Explanation:

An ode poem is a kind of poem, usually praising something. An ode is a form of lyric poetry — expressing emotion — and it's usually addressed to someone or something, or it represents the poet's musings on that person or thing.

In poetry, a sonnet has 14 lines, and each line has 10 syllables. Generally, sonnets are divided into different groups based on the rhyme scheme they follow.

Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry. Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables. Because Haikus are such short poems, they are usually written about things that are recognizable to the reader.

"Stroke" is the correct answer for the first blank, since strokes occur when there is an obstruction in a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain.
"Strike" is the correct answer for the second blank since "strike" is a verb (action) which means to throw something forcefully in an exaggerated manner. </span>
