Which sentence most clearly uses hyperbole?

Juliette [100K]

Answer: C

Explanation: hyperbole is exaggeration- a term that isn't technically true, it just kind of feels like it is because of the situation, like "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse," that sort of thing.

C is overreacting a little: "We will never be able to feel safe" ever again no matter what we do "unless we set a curfew." It's being dramatic to make the point that a curfew will help us feel more safe.
