Answer:

Understatement version - "it's not that bad!"

Hannah rode her bike to school. She stowed it in the rack. She casually walked to homeroom. No way was she going to violate the hallway policy. When she got there she found that she was just a little bit late; the lunch bell rang.

Hyperbole version - exaggeration

Hannah peddled her bike as fast as she could to school, leaving trails of fire behind her. She stowed it in the rack. She was extremely late, so she ran to homeroom, a clear violation of hallway policy -- she could get expelled! When she got there she found that she was so much later than she had thought; the lunch bell rang. It was practically the end of the day!

hope this helps

What organizing principle or principles are used in the paragraph?
Soloha48 [4]
After a thorough research, there exists the same question with the paragraph.

<span>Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. Both are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources.
</span>
The paragraph uses 'Compare and Contrast' organization. It presented us the differences and similarities between coal and petroleum.
