1. C) Hyperbole
In literature, hyperbole is a way of writing in an exaggerated manner used to emphasize, to add humor or to gain attention on something. It is common to use words or phrases that are obviously false, such as the ones that Oscar tells his friend. Oscar emphasizes how much he walked to get home, and how tiring and unpleasant it was by stating exaggerated facts, like "this is the hottest day in the history of the world", if this statement were true, he would not make it out alive to his home.
2. A) It applies to both myths.
In the first myth, the character who is the transgressor as well is punished by being killed. And in the second myth, the transgressor is punished by being the father of a cursed race of people. From this, we can conclude that "transgressors are punished".
3. C) Customs
What a group of people does to obtain food is part of their custom as it is something that they must do every day for the rest of their lives, and there is a difference between a group that hunts to get their food or a group that is total vegan, as it tells us something about their beliefs, traditions and customs.
4. A) Allusion
An allusion is an indirect reference to something or someone that is commonly known by people. When authors put reference about people (In this case, the Egyptian god, Ra), they do it because they know beforehand that the person is commonly known, and most readers would understand to whom they are referring too without giving much information.
5. C) Naturalism
Naturalism was a literary movement that became popular in the U.S. at the end of the 19th century, and it was characterized for depicting topics and themes of poverty, low moral compass, scientific principles to explain the causes of events, among others. And when it came to poems, they rarely rhymed as they were focused on conveying an idea, just as the poem Josie studied. about poverty in school.

c. compound object
The correct answer is C. Compound object
Explanation:
In grammar, the word compound is used to describe a subject, verb, object or any other section in a sentence that encloses two or more elements creating a long subject, verb or object. For example, the words "Charlie and Agatha" are a compound subject, the words "play and sing" can be a compound verb and the words "a flower and a vase" can be a compound object. This means, in the case of the sentence "The Edmunds also needed a guide and transport across the ice", this sentence has a compound object as the words "a guide and transport across the ice" work as an object as they are the entities affected by the verb and they are classified as compound as the object comprises two different elements "a guide" and "transport across the ice".
