Answer:
D) The flower garden was vibrant, it was very lively!
Explanation:
Let's go over the rest of the answers to see why they're wrong.
A) words like "rather" or "instead" indicate that two clauses or parts of a sentence contradict one another. so truculent and easygoing are antonyms.
B) it is true that to be truculent means to not give up easily, it's just not answering the question itself. "she didn't give up easily" is just defining the word, not using a synonym as a context clue.
C) "angry as a bear" is just an example of a simile. totally irrelevant.
D) is correct because vibrant and lively are synonyms, and the text uses one word to define another, therefore creating a relationship between the two words that mean the same thing.
The answer would be "She felt like a popsicle left in a freezer long enough to be shriveled" because it uses the word "like" which indicates that this sentence is a simile, and similies are a form of Figurative Language.

Answer:
The answer is hyperbole.
Explanation:
It's a familiar question.
Also, Hyperbole is an exaggeration. The most blatant display of exaggeration here is the author's description of her laughter.
The following lines show this:
"...and it nearly killed her laughing"
"...she laughed herself lame--she did, indeed;"
She couldn't have possibly laughed herself lame of course but the hyperbole is used in showing how hard she must have laughed at what he was telling her.
