Answer:
Hyperbole
Explanation:
A hyperbole is an intentional exaggeration or adding emphasis to an action. It is used to make a point bigger or better than it actually is and makes it more dramatic.
In this scenario the statement - 'I was on Today (a morning TV show) accused of killing the novel . . .'
Conveys that the writer was criticised for doing a bad job with the novel.
Using the word killing adds emphasis to the how bad the work on the novel was.
In this instance the writer does not mean he actually killed the book, but he said it to give a picture of the extent to which the book was negatively impacted by Jame's action.
D is the answer to your question
The answer is:
The poet uses repetition to highlight how much water surrounds the sailors.
Repetition is a literary and rhetorical device which involves the recurrence of a word or phrase for emphasis, to add intensity and to make the speaker's ideas and thoughts more straightforward.
In the passage from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," the author Samuel Taylor Coleridge makes use of repetition to make more forceful the fact that the sailor is thirsty in a motionless ship, in the middle of water but unable to consume it.
The answer is (A). I'm not a genius, but if there are smart things you can do (B,C,D) and then A is generic, the bad wording and lack of quotation, then that isn't recommended
