Bumek [7]2 years ago

Answer:

The literary device used in this sentence is hyperbole.

Explanation:

<u>Hyperbole is a literary  as well as rhetorical device that uses exaggeration to express a feeling, an action, or an idea. The purpose is to inspire strong feelings or impressions in one's audience. </u>That is the case in the sentence "I love you so much I think of you a billion times a day." <u>What this speaker actually means is that he/she thinks a lot about a certain person. </u>However, not only is it impossible to know how often you think of someone, it is also impossible to think of anything a billion times in just one day. <u>There is clear exaggeration here with the purpose of emphasizing the frequency of thoughts related to beloved person.</u>

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The kind of fight Tom and his friends engaged in was a funny imitation of the real thing. It was funny that the opposing generals were 'bosom friends' who never fought each other.

Explanation:

In the 'Adventures of Tom Sawyer' by Mark Twain, we learn of little Tom who lived with his Aunt, Polly. He would try to finish his duties at home on time so that he could go play with his friends.

In one of these plays, Tom was a general, while his very good friend Joe Harper was the opposing general. It is funny that his enemy was his 'bosom friend'. Asides from that they perfectly imitated generals by giving orders to their subordinates and instructions on how to carry out their operations.
