Correct option is number 1: The writer uses hyperbole to offer a lighthearted joke about the age of the grandmother.

Hyperbole is a rhetorical figure that consists in the exaggeration of a quality. In this case, the age of the grandmother. It may be very old, but never taught how to fire the caveman

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

The medium of a story litteraly means "how the story is delivered", is it a play, a screen write, a poem, an short story etc etc.

In this case it's saying that the creators "animated people from the past", ergo the medium would be animation.

The others are talking about tone and authors voice, how the story is delivered metaphorically essentially

hope this helps :)

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Chopin is showing us a social situation of the times with the woman as a prisoner of her husband. It is common knowledge that marriages are not always about mutual love between two people and during the time that Chopin was writing, this was more often the case. The story was created in the year of 1894. During that time, it shows how women weren't treated equally/fairly as men.

Answer:

"Most bewildering," "small white bulb"

Explanation:

I found the answer by using answer elimination. For "most bewildering," we can see that Muir is questioning the flower and looking at it carefully. This is a step of the scientific method, asking questions and making observations.

As for "bed of yellow mosses," I found this to be written in a more poetic way. This is a metaphor, saying the moss is a 'bed of moss.' There is definitely nothing scientific about that observation.

"Small white bulb" is descriptive. There is nothing fancy or exciting about that phrase, it is simply describing it the way it is, much as a scientist would. It sounds to me like a passage from a book on botany.

When I read "utmost simple purity," I found this as a somewhat religious observation. If not, it would surely be a poetic attempt, to romanticize the flower.

"Cried for joy" would not be a scientific observation. Never have I heard a researcher state that they cried for joy upon realizing that the effects of too much caffeine cause hallucinations. This would be a distraction from the study and has no place except in a seperate interview.

Hope this helps!
