Answer:

Hyperbole: I swear I'll love you for a million years

Personification: my pencil dances over the blank page

Metaphor: my sister is a dragon fierce and mean​

Explanation:

Figurative Language helps bring an appealing effect in the writing. There are many types of Figurative Languages like Simile, metaphor, Personification, Hyperbole, Alliteration to name a few.

In hyperbole there is use of exaggeration in the writing. In sentence 1, it says that I will love for million years, which is exaggeration of the time for which the person will love the other one. It only means that person will love the other one forever, a long time. So, it is a use of Hyperbole.

Second sentence uses personification as compares a non living thing to a characteristic of a living thing. Pencil is an object which cannot dance, but it is mentioned in this sentence. So, it is personifying pencil.

Third sentence is a metaphor as sister is called dragon in this. She is being called fierce like a dragon.

Which statement from the text best shows the author's main claim? A: this would make a difference in our world by reducing green
mrs_skeptik [129]

Hello. You did not show the answer options, nor did you show the text to which the question refers, which prevents me from answering your question exactly. However, I will try to help you by explaining what a main claim is in a text.

Within a text the main claim is the main idea to which the text presents. It is the subject that the text decides to address.

Usually you find the main claim of a text right at the beginning of the text, because the author needs to arrest readers right from the start showing what the text will discuss about and arresting readers who show interest in the type of discussion presented.
