Maureen described the small and tattered tent that she put up as an imperial

English
1 answer:
Sholpan [36]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Yes.  Maureen is exaggerating in this instance.

She equates the "small and tattered tent" to "an imperial structure."  This is not true on the surface.  But, the intended meaning is brought out by the literary device known as exaggeration.

Explanation:

Exaggeration is the description of something by making it look or sound more than it really is.  For example, if you say that Josephine killed the mosquito with a sledge hammer, it is an exaggeration.  Exaggeration is a figure of speech.  It is one of the literary devices employed by good authors to make meanings clearer than they would appear otherwise.

What's the difference between theme and central idea? Question 1 options: Theme is the main idea of a story, and central idea is
adelina 88 [10]

A theme is a universal lesson learned and the central idea is a one-sentence main idea.

  • <em>Central idea</em> conveys that the text is about mainly, whereas, <em>theme </em>refers to the author's message, life lesson or moral learned from the story.
  • A <em>central idea</em> cannot be referred to as the topic of the text, on the other hand, a <em>theme</em> cannot be same as topic.
  • In one sentence, the<em> central idea </em>can be stated, whereas, <em>themes</em> are repeated and can be multiple.

Therefore, a theme is not the central idea, nor it can act as a topic of the text.
