She gave birth to me, raised me and provided for me from an infant… Maybe I owe her one.

Is this hyperbole or understatement?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Understatement

Explanation:

A hyperbole exaggerates to more than it is however this says maybe I owe her one after listing all the things the mom did.

Answer 2

An understatement is a figure of speech used to deliberately represent something as less significant, smaller, or less intense than it actually is. The given statement is an understatement.

Understatement is a figure of speech that deliberately represents something as less significant or smaller than it actually is. In this case, the speaker downplays their indebtedness to their mother by suggesting that they might only owe her a single favor or gesture, despite the significant role she played in their life—giving birth, raising, and providing for them from infancy.

By minimizing their obligation, the speaker emphasizes the magnitude of their gratitude and the immense impact their mother had on their life.

Therefore, the given statement, "Maybe I owe her one," is an understatement.

Read this excerpt from The Outsiders. Soda tries to understand, at least, which is more than Darry does. But then, Soda is different from anybody; he understands everything, almost. Like he's never hollering at me all the time the way Darry is, or treating me as if I was six instead of fourteen. I love Soda more than I've ever loved anyone, even Mom and Dad. Which statement best states the theme of this excerpt? People are alike inside. Hardship builds character. Kindness creates loyalty. Appearances can be deceptive.

Answers

Answer:

Kindness creates loyalty.

Explanation:

The statement that best states the theme of this excerpt is 'Kindness creates loyalty.' In the novel, though Darry was the oldest among the three Curtis brothers, Ponyboy, the narrator, couldn't actually connect with him emotionally because of his authoritative behaviour.

However, Ponyboy could connect with Soda, the middle son, more because he was always kind to him. Soda understood him and always listened to him without any judgements. He also treats him respectfully and dearly, thus Ponyboy was loyal to him and truly looked up to him.

Answers

When talking about indiscriminate charity, Carnegie talks about people's habit of helping people financially who don't want to help themselves. This sentence can marry a feeling of revolt, as we tend to think that no kind of help is indiscriminate.

What is indiscriminate charity, according to Carnegie?Financially helping people who don't want to help themselves.Promote rewards for the negative behavior of people with vulnerability.

For Carnegie, philanthropy is serious and should be used to promote social good. He does not believe that giving money to homeless people, for example, is correct, as these people do not want to help themselves and will use this money to feed their addictions.

For him, this is indiscriminate help, which stimulates the problem more than combats it.

Which word refers to the medium of a story?
A. Personification
B. Comic book
C. Ballad
D. Symbol

Answers

I believe the answer is B:
B = Comic Book

Reason:
Film is that actual word that can be used to be a medium of a story. Film also referencing to movie, motion picture, or moving picture, is a visual art-form used to stimulate experiences that communicate ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images.
So Comic Book would coordinate with that.

A.Fictional stories were never based on real life historical events.
B.Fictional stories never included Native American characters.
C.Fictional stories were often based on biased ideas about Native Americans.
D.Fictional stories often did not include specific details about Native Americans.

Answers

Answer:

C). Fictional stories were often based on biased ideas about Native Americans.

Explanation:

A personal narrative would provide greater and finer insight into the conditions of a Native American and the struggles they had to undergo than the fictional stories as the latter often presented biased ideas that prevent a clear understanding of the exact situation. The one who went through the pain of discrimination, prejudice, and injustice could never be equal to the one who is merely imagining the situation. Achebe puts up a similar argument against Joseph Conrad for his racist portrayal of native Africans in 'Heart of Darkness.' Thus, option C is the correct answer.
