Answer: C) hyperbole.

Explanation: A hyperbole is a type of figurative language that consists in exaggerating an event or a statement. In the given excerpt from "To Koll a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee we can see an example of a hyperbole, because when the speaker says that "there was nowhere to go" and "there was nothing to buy" it isn't meant to be taken literally, he is exaggerating to create an impact on the reader.

Answer:

The meaning of irony is the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect. In 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry' irony is represented when Jim gives Della the combs after she sold her hair. The story states," For there were the combs -- the special set of objects to hold her hair that Della had wanted ever since she saw them in a shop window. Beautiful combs, made of shells, with jewels at the edge --just the color to wear in the beautiful hair that was no longer hers. They cost a lot of money, she knew, and her heart had wanted them without ever hoping to have them. And now, the beautiful combs were hers, but the hair that should have touched them was gone." This persents irony because she sold her hair, so she couldn't use the combs she longed for.
