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.

So it's B. Because it's collective 'Boxes' as we know and an adjective phrase is a group of words that describe a noun or a pronoun.

Hope this helps :)<span />

In Benvolio's lines he's basically telling Romeo the best way to get over one girl, is to get another girl He tells Romeo "take thou some new infection to thy eye/And the rank poison of the old will die." He says if you find some other girl whose beauty is infectious then the old love that poisons you will die. This ends up being true. Romeo attends the Capulet party in hopes of seeing Rosaline but he sees Juliet. Juliet makes him forget all about Rosaline and he falls completely in love with her.
