Answer:
It is a hyperbole that means that the author's eyes were wide with fear.
Explanation:
A hyperbole is an exaggeration to prove a point. For example: "I had a thousand pages of homework." You can't possibly have that much homework; it is exaggerated to show how much homework you have.
A simile is a comparison to another thing using the words "like" or "as." For example: "My pile of homework was as thick as a box."
An oxymoron is using two words together that contradict. For example: "My homework was finished at school." Normally people do homework at home, so it is contradictory(opposite) to do it at school. Another example is "the boiling hot ice." Usually ice is freezing cold, so it is contradictory for it to be hot.
Now that you know these figures of speech, we can answer the question. It's not a simile because it isn't comparing anything with the words "like" or "as." It's not an oxymoron because there is no contradictory statement. So, it is a hyperbole. It is exaggerating how far the person's eyes were sticking out.
I believe the pronoun "what" is already properly placed.
It appears that Dally hates most everything. He seems to be somewhat different from the other Greasers according to Ponyboy.
The adverb of a sentence is a word that defines a verb. The main verb in this sentence is the word 'includes', so we are looking for the word that defines it, makes it more specific. So let's take a look at our answer choices:
A. includes
We know that includes is the verb of the sentence, so we can nix answer A right away.
B. likely
This word describes the way in which the pictures of planes were included, so this looks like a good candidate.
C. interesting
This word is an adjective defining the pictures, not the verb of the sentence, so we can scratch it off our choices
D. many
This is another adjective defining the amount of pictures there were, so we can also remove choice D from our list.
And we're left with answer choice B.
The word 'likely' is the adverb in the sentence.
Hope that helped! =)
