Answer:

The best answer is: "B. Hyperbole".

Explanation:

Letter B is the best answer because there is a high exaggeration for describing the environment, such as by the use of long and detailed words for only one place the tenant man is looking about. The man describes the place by reminding past events and memories, which emphasizes his feelings and thoughts about what he is looking for. Letter A is not possible because it is not a understatement, it is the contrary ideia for that. Letter C is also not possible because there are alliteration in the words chosen, however they differ from each other and gets to produce real alliteration only in some parts of the passage. Then, letter D is also not possible because there is no parallelism in the passage.

Explanation:

Words in simple present actually show action  that take place regularly and those that are happening right now. The person (whether first person, second person or third person) determines the formation of the tense whether -s or -es will be added to the verb root word or not.

Prepositions are used in sentences before nouns, pronouns or noun phrases. They are used in order to time, place, direction, introduce an object or even show spatial relationship.

In the above sentences, the prepositions are used to show the time something occurs.
