Answer:
these are all figures of speech used in american English. A metaphor and simile are comparisons. A metaphor compares two things without using the words "like" or "as". A simile is a comparison using the words "like" or "as". A hyperbole is an exaggeration or make something seem more outrageous than it actually is. Personification is when you as the writer give non living object personal feelings or actions. hope that helps! :)
Explanation:
Examples:
Metaphor: My dog is a pig
Simile: my son eats like a wild animal
Hyperbole: My dog flew out the window at my grandma's house
Personification: The trees were swaying to the music
c) hyperbole
A hyperbole is an over-exaggeration. In this phrase, it is highly unlikely that the little city in Georgia has been sleeping for "forty thousand years" especially considering that the United States is only 242 years old. If personification were an option, it would also be a great choice. Personification is giving non-human thing human-like traits. In this phrase, the city (non-human) is being given a human trait (dozing).
The other options: an allusion is a reference to another piece of literature or other published work. A flashback is an interruption that tells about something that has already happened. Rhyme is a group of words that sound similar (bone, cone, phone).
