Answer:
The answer is indeed letter <u>C. understatement.</u>
<u />
Explanation:
<u>An understatement, also called euphemism, is a figure of speech. It describes or presents something as being less important than what it really is</u>. For instance, suppose you travel to Rio de Janeiro and the temperature outside is 40°C (104°F); you say, "It's a bit warm today." That description is an understatement since the day is not merely warm. It is very hot.
Any person, probably even a rich one, would feel more than just pleased if they got a brand-new car full of 100-dollar bills. That is something to make anyone scream with excitement and cry in disbelief since it is most unlikely to happen. A perfume or a 50-dollar bill for a present could make someone pleased.
