Which lines from homers " the odyssey "best shows an example of hyperbole ?

English
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
3 0
The correct answer is answer choice C, "I am Odysseus, son of Laertes, known to the world for every kind of craft - my fame has reached the skies". A hyperbole is, simply put, an exaggeration. Odysseus' fame has not literally reached the skies; he is simply exaggerating his fame to get his point across. For instance, when someone wants to go somewhere, and wants to convince a friend to come with them, they might say 'everyone's going', or something along those lines. However, everyone in the world is not literally going; that someone is simply exaggerating to make a point.

To analyze tone, which things should the reader study? Check all that apply.
Lena [83]
To analyze tone, you should study connotations, diction, the speaker and the topic. It is important to think about the connotations given with certain words, whether words are angry or happy. Additionally, the diction can provide input, if they are dropping words or speaking quickly. The speaker can also help provide the tone, you have associations with certain people, like a funeral attendant being somber. Finally, the topic can also tell you the tone, if you're reading about a funeral, you would expect the tone to be sad.
