D. The characters' behaviors, motivations, and growth. 

Usually the theme of a story is not stated directly, the author shows the theme by how the characters grow and change. If you're reading about a character who starts off young, immature, or naive and by the end of the book he is mature, grownup, and more knowledgeable about the world the theme might be "Coming of Age". If a character goes through the book and people around him are dying--based on how the main character changes or reacts the theme might be "The Power of Death". 

Pay close attention to the main characters, how they change and grow, and look for themes wrapped within those changes.

What is the most likely meaning of the phrase "I could have hung my hat on my eyes, they stuck out so far" in this sentence? It
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

It is a hyperbole that means that the author's eyes were wide with fear.

Explanation:

A hyperbole is an exaggeration to prove a point. For example: "I had a thousand pages of homework." You can't possibly have that much homework;  it is exaggerated to show how much homework you have.

A simile is a comparison to another thing using the words "like" or "as." For example: "My pile of homework was as thick as a box."

An oxymoron is using two words together that contradict. For example: "My homework was finished at school." Normally people do homework at home, so it is contradictory(opposite) to do it at school. Another example is "the boiling hot ice." Usually ice is freezing cold, so it is contradictory for it to be hot.

Now that you know these figures of speech, we can answer the question. It's not a simile because it isn't comparing anything with the words "like" or "as." It's not an oxymoron because there is no contradictory statement. So, it is a hyperbole. It is exaggerating how far the person's eyes were sticking out.
