Exaggeration/Hyerbole

Humor

Irony.
Explanation:
Exaggeration/Hyperbole: This is an obvious over-amplification of claims or events for added effect. It is usually not taken literally. This is used to pass across a message to show the severity or consequence of something.
An example is " I was so hungry, i could swallow a horse".
This does not mean that the person can literally swallow a horse but just to show the extent of the hunger.
Humor: Humor is the quality of being comical or amusing usually to elicit laughter.
The example above, "What must you do before you get off a bus> Get on it".
This uses humor to show that one must first be on a bus before he can think of getting off and the question is constructed in a funny way.
Irony: This is the expression of one's feelings through the use of words that signify the opposite of what is really meant, usually for emphasis.

<h3>What is "The Crucible?"</h3>
"The Crucible" is a play that portrays the mass hysteria that occurred in the Puritan community of Salem and resulted in a series of accusations of witchcraft that culminated in the murder of a number of citizens, mainly women.
The play is an allegory of McCarthyism that provoked a series of random accusations from possible Americans associated with the Communist Party. McCarthyism generated a wave of fear in the USA in 1950 and generated baseless accusations that ended the social life of the victims.
