Title of work, what project, and what class, I'm pretty sure
Answer:
The answer is hyperbole.
Explanation:
It's a familiar question.
Also, Hyperbole is an exaggeration. The most blatant display of exaggeration here is the author's description of her laughter.
The following lines show this:
"...and it nearly killed her laughing"
"...she laughed herself lame--she did, indeed;"
She couldn't have possibly laughed herself lame of course but the hyperbole is used in showing how hard she must have laughed at what he was telling her.
The answer is I was unsure how to react.
Hope this helped :)
If counterfeit is the underlined word then the answer is <span>imitation</span>
