I believe the answer would be A. If the question is ‘from what line from the article does the author reveal how she would like others to respond to her lack of hearing?’ Then the answer would be A. She says that she ‘hated to be seen as inferior’ this suggests that the way she would like to see others respond is, not by acting like she is inferior, but acting as if she were any other person.
Answer: When you meet the one person that you know for a fact that you'll love as a buddy for the longest while, you can't exactly remember how you lived with your memories without them. My best friend is a huge part of my life, even if we can't see each other because of the pandemic. We're always here for each other no matter what. We don't care about how we look on the outside, we only care for the inside. As you grow up you have to make a choice for that best friend. You either keep them in your life and always be there for them like the old times, or you begin to lose interest and leave yourself with all the memories you had with them when you were younger. Most best friends are like siblings to you, they go through everything with you, they help you stay strong, they support you, they love you. There are so many changes best friends can bring to your life, either big or small. Either way, that change is always a good change that was worth it.
A hyperbole is an exaggeration of a description or event. I do not think that statement is exaggerated, so no. It is not a hyperbole.
Answer: c) He feels that he and Hillary were equals and that they could not have climbed Everest without each other's help.
In the excerpt, the author argues that Hillary is a fine man and his friend, and he is not offensive to him at any point. So it would be inaccurate to claim that he refers to him as a liar and a cheat.
He also makes it clear that he does not think Hillary is "superior" to him, or that he is weak. The only accurate thing is to say that they were both equals, and they helped each other out, but that he believes Hillary does not portray him that way in his account.
