Answer:

Crito was there to try to persuade Socrates to escape from the prison where he is awaiting execution.

Explanation:

Socrates was accused of "corrupting the young" and "impiety" by the people of Athens and kept imprisoned awaiting execution by Hemlock poisoning. One of his friends, Crito, a rich wealthy Athenian visits him the day before he was to be killed. He had already bribed the guards and even made ready a boat for his escape to another town. But Socrates refused, saying that even though his charge wasn't right, he doesn't have to pay back evil for evil, in his case wrong for wrong. "Two wrongs doesn't make a right". Injustice should not be answered with injustice. So, he'll happily accept the verdict of the people of Athens and be executed.

Which sentence contains an example of hyperbole? Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." (A) contains a hyperbole.

In literature, a hyperbole is a stylistic exaggeration. It is used to give a dramatic effect to a statement.

Here, the hyperbole is: "pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe." There are of course prices that the U.S. are going to refuse to pay, burdens they will not afford to carry, etc., but by exaggerating these commitments, Kennedy sounds more resolute and more persuasive.
