c. allusion
d. irony
Scroll down for the answer.
________________________________
a. is incorrect; however, it is the best wrong answer. There is some description going on, but it lacks the detail that is normally thought of with imagery. If you picked this, don't feel bad, you are close.
b. is incorrect since the boy is actually telling the truth and not exaggerating at all.
c. is incorrect. There is no reference to anything in this picture.
d. is correct. The mom makes a comment to suggest that she is not gullible, yet she is reading an impossible diet book showing that she is indeed very gullible.
Has anyone ever pointed out that you use "infer" incorrectly?
ReplyDeleteGood catch! The error has been fixed. If you are a student, tell your teacher I said to give you extra credit.
