Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

Metaphor is the figure of language that transports the word (or expression) from its literal meaning to the figurative sense. It is a comparison that is expressed without the terms that characterize a comparison. In metaphor, a word is used with the intention that an implicit meaning stands out in it and leads to the interpretation of what is being said.

In the phrase "His son was too buried in the magazine he was reading" the metaphor was used to compare "being stuck in reading" with "is buried in reading". It means that the boy was very absorbed with what he was reading in the magazine, as if trapped, buried.

Figurative Language
n200080 [17]

Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from traditional meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it.

Alliteration: the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

Example: Three grey geese in a field grazing. Grey were the geese and green was the grazing.

Onomatopoeia: the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named

Example: The bridge collapsed creating a tremendous boom.

Hyperbole: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.

Example: He's running faster than the wind.

When developing a counterclaim, you should A: not make your counterclaim’s evidence closely factual because you should not under
Margaret [11]

In the process of argumentative writing, or any research, a very important step, aside from creating a claim and collecting the data to support this claim, is the creation of the counterclaim. A counterclaim is literally the way in which a writer contemplates that his argument, or claim, may be wrong, or partially wrong, and this adds veritability and trustworthiness to a research process because it shows that the writer did not just use his/her point of view and research to lay a claim, but considered other options as well and considered the fact that his/her statement may be untrue. What is important to consider, when building a counterclaim, however, it is important to consider all the points established by other writers, researchers or people in general. The correct answer would be C, because when doing research, a writer must consider all the facts, both that support and detract, from the claim in order to make his/her text balanced and not biased.
