The children climbed higher than the sun's rays is the most obvious hyperbole in the text.

Answer:

"The children climbed higher than the sun's rays that afternoon."

Explanation:

a hyperbole is an unrealistic exaggeration.

Nobody can actually<em> climb</em> higher than the sun's rays.

also...

the first one is personification (giving things that don't have human characteristics, human characteristics)

the second one is a simile (a comparison between two things and uses the words "like" and/or "as")

and the third one is a metaphor (a comparison between two objects and doesn't used the words "like" <em>or </em>"as")

I hope this helps. Have an amazing day, bean child.

storchak [24]

Answer: B

Explanation:  The sentence that is correctly punctuated is: B. Two main causes of orchid death​ include: overwatering and​ overpotting; however, too much sun can also cause a problem. It is correct because because before a sentence connector such as However there must be a full stop or a semi-colon. This is the case in sentence B while the other sentences have a comma before however. Commas are not used before conjuncts.
