Read the passage from Hans Christian Andersen’s "The Princess and the Pea.” Then [the Queen] took twenty mattresses and laid the

m on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of the mattresses. On this the princess had to lie all night. In the morning she was asked how she had slept. "Oh, very badly!” said she. "I have scarcely closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body. It’s horrible!” Now they knew that she was a real princess because she had felt the pea right through the twenty mattresses and the twenty eider-down beds. Nobody but a real princess could be as sensitive as that. So the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put in the museum, where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it. There, that is a true story. Which quotation from the passage encompasses the climax of the story? “Then [the Queen] took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea.” “In the morning she was asked how she had slept.” “‘Oh, very badly!’ said she. ‘I have scarcely closed my eyes all night.’” “So the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess.”

Answer: “‘Oh, very badly!’ said she. ‘I have scarcely closed my eyes all night.’”

The climax of a story is the turning point of a narrative. This also means that the climax is the highest point of tension and drama. Immediately after the climax, the action starts during which the solution of the story is given (this is the falling action). In this case, the climax is the moment the princess reveals she slept badly. This reveals that she is in fact a real princess, and leads to the resolution of the story, in which the prince decides to marry her.

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.

Answer:

C) It incorrectly assumes that popularity equates to moral correctness.

Explanation:

A fallacy is an argument that is not correct but that might persuade people to believe it by appearing to be a good reasoning. According to this, the reasoning is fallacious in this statement because it incorrectly assumes that popularity equates to moral correctness. This is the answer because the statement indicates that as the reality is popular, it is not corrosive and decadent and this is an invalid argument because if a program is popular, this doesn't mean that it is morally correct. However, this may be an argument that people might believe.
