Answer:

overstatement  --> E. hyperbole

pleasant-sounding  --> C. euphony

understatement  --> A. litotes

simile  --> B. cool as a cucumber

cacophony  --> D. opposite of euphony

Explanation:

An overstatement or hyperbole is a figure of speech that uses exaggeration to express an idea, a feeling, an action etc.

Euphony refers to a harmonious combination of words or sounds, being pleasant to the ear.

An understatement is the description or presentation of something as being less important than what it really is. Litotes is an ironic understatement.

A simile is a figure of speech which makes a comparison - stating a similarity - between two different things. It uses words such as "as" or "like".

Cacophony is a discordance of sounds, unpleasant to the ear.

What is the central theme (message) of Night by Elie Wiesel? How do the characters and their actions develop the theme? Use evid
rewona [7]

The main theme of "Night" by Elie Wiesel is the prevalence of religious faith. This theme is developed by the actions of Eliezer who struggles to keep his faith in God.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Eliezer grew up within the Jewish religion and was taught to believe in a kind and benevolent God.
  • This belief is the basis for Eliezer's faith, which made him believe that God would never forsake him.
  • however, during World War II and after suffering a lot in a concentration camp along with other Jews, Eliezer had his faith shaken.
  • He began to question whether God was kind and benevolent, as he looked like all Jews were helpless.

At the same time, Eliezer only had the religion and belief in God to cling to, but it was very difficult to maintain faith amid suffering.
