I’ve always appreciated this one:
Travel Sickness ~ A Funny Poem About A Writer
Travelling by train from Luton to London
To attend a writers' convention
I spotted the chap in the seat opposite
Was reading my latest collection
Feeling my chest swell with authorial pride,
I coughed to attract his attention.
'I see that you're reading my book', I remarked,
Expecting a friendly reception.
Instead, he went red. 'Have it back', he said,
'I was under a misapprehension.
It was on my seat when I boarded the train,
But it's quite beyond comprehension.'
Answer:
so this bell calls all; but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness." Which of these is the best interpretation of this
Answer:
C. I do not own a Porsche.
Explanation:
It is a simple fact and it has nothing that follows it.
c. to exaggerate
Hyperbole is used to exaggerate a thought or idea. It often makes the tone humorous or overly dramatic. It's important to be careful when using hyperbole in writing because it can also make the speaker seem unreliable since a hyperbole is not a complete truth. A few examples of everyday hyperboles are: My homework is going to take forever. I'm so hungry, I could eat a cow. I'm so embarrassed, I could die.
