Hello. Did you forget to show that the underlined words to which the question refers are: cruel favor
In addition, you forgot to show the answer options. The options are:
The underlined figure of speech is ________ (choices: a euphemism, a simile, a metaphor, an oxymoron)
The reader can infer that ________ (choices: the narrator plans to take up baking with Lisette, the narrator feels that Lisette should do her more favors, the narrator will pretend to enjoy Lisette's brownies, the narrator suspects that Lisette is dishonest with her)
Answer:
1. euphemism
2. the narrator will pretend to enjoy Lisette's brownies
Explanation:
Euphenism is the figure of speech that has a lighter and more pleasant term, softening a bad meaning of another term that could be used. In this case, when the narrator says that Lisette took the Brownies as a "cruel favor" he wanted to soften the meaning that eating her brownies would be a bad experience.
Furthermore, by using eupenism, the author reinforces the idea that since Lisette is a very kind person, he will pretend to like the brownies, even if he doesn't like it.

Answer:
1. Cause-effect: Eva is writing an essay about her school's new computers and their impact on students.
2. Spatial: Kai is writing an informational article about the features of his favorite bike.
3. Problem-Solution: Hank is writing a proposal about ways to fix issues with the student drop-off lanes at his school.
4. Order of Importance: Gwen is writing a speech and begins with her key ideas so that she can emphasize their importance.
Explanation:
When writing compositions different organizational structures are employed depending on the information the author wishes to pass. For example,
1. Cause-effect is employed when the writer wishes to show the relationship between an item and its effect on another. So, when Eva writes about the school's new computers and its impact on students she is trying to establish a cause and an effect.
2. Spatial organization is used when the writer wants to create a mental picture of something. So when Kai writes an informational article about the features of his favorite bike he employs spatial organization.
3. Problem-Solution lists a problem and proffers its solution. This is what Hank seeks to achieve when he writes a proposal about ways to fix issues with the student drop-off lanes at his school.
4. Order Of Importance makes a sequence in the order of events. When Gwen begins her speech with the key ideas to emphasize their importance she uses order of importance organizational structure.
