Free verse because it open minded
The option that best defines the misplaced modifier is C. a word, phrase, or clause that seems to refer and modify an unintended word because of its placement in a sentence.
For example:
We ate the lunch that we had brought <u>slowly</u>. <u />The word slowly refers to ate, and not had brought.
The correct option is Hyperbole.
Although all of these devices can be used to make a story humorous, it is the use of hyperbole what makes the exaggeration and cause the effect that that author or writer wants to obtain
Pun uses ambiguity in words, irony uses a word with an intended different meaning, absurdity uses what makes no sense.
