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.

Does writing interfere with listening!? How?
nikitadnepr [17]

Explanation:

If you like to listen to music while writing, choose music without words or ambient noise, for example, the sound of water. Almost every study that I looked at found that music with lyrics hindered concentration and productivity. However, one study showed that low-level ambient noise can improve creativity.
