Hyperbole: an exaggeration

The flowers withered faster than the speed of light.

<em>Hyperbole</em> (from Greek 'excess'), is a figure of speech that uses extreme exaggeration. The opposite of a hyperbole is an understatement.

Hyperboles are not comparisons like metaphors but extravagant and sometimes ridiculous overstatements, not meant to be taken literally.  They are perfect for creative writing and communication, especially if one wants to make a story funny or humorous.

Some examples of a hyperbole are:

- I'm so hungry<em> I could eat a horse.</em>

- I have a <em>million things to do.</em>

- She is as skinny <em>as a tooth pick.</em>

The conflict between the twins continued, and for some reason their grandmother favored the left-handed twin. The right-handed t
BaLLatris [955]
I believe that the answer you are looking for would be B. Here are some reasons why I think so:


1. <span>The twins represent the two ways of the world which are in all people. This is meaning that it is going directly with choice B, and they compare them

2. </span><span>The right-handed twin became angry and resentful. He was the truthful twin who always did the right thing. The left-handed twin was deceitful and did everything backward. You could never trust him. In this little bunch of sentences right here, It's doing exactly what B says, it's comparing the two sides of human nature.

I hope that this could help you and have a great day! If you need more help you can send me a DM! </span>
